Ghana’s top-tier Urban Gospel icon, Quabena Asare, is once again pushing the boundaries of gospel music with his new single, Radical For Christ. Known for his fresh take on Afro/Urban gospel, Quabena Asare has consistently captivated audiences, from the youth to the larger Christian community across Ghana and Africa. His music transcends traditional gospel boundaries, blending inspirational lyrics with vibrant, contemporary sounds.
Quabena Asare first became a household name with his hit Gyedi, a song that resonated widely and broke the long-standing notion that Urban Gospel lacked a substantial audience. His style, which combines authenticity with an urban edge, has set a new standard for urban gospel music in Africa. Gyedi’s popularity transformed it into an anthem, solidifying Asare’s influence and redefining the space for gospel music in mainstream circles.
With Radical For Christ, released on October 30, 2024, Quabena Asare has delivered a powerful message that encourages living a life that openly reflects Christ’s love, values, and teachings. The song’s title is self-explanatory, calling on Christians to embrace a bold expression of faith—not only by holding their beliefs close but by radiating them through their actions, words, and character. This message, layered over an infectious Amapiano sound, is already resonating with listeners and topping charts on DSPs.
The single, launched just in time for the December festive season, has generated a surge of excitement within the Christian community and among Quabena Asare’s core fans, who see it as the perfect anthem for celebrating their faith. Radical For Christ is now available on all digital platforms, and fans can look forward to a vibrant visual accompaniment in the coming month.
Quabena Asare’s newest release underscores his mission to connect people, especially the youth to faith through music that’s both spiritually meaningful and rhythmically captivating. As he continues to lead the charge for Afro/Urban gospel, Radical For Christ sets the stage for a lively, gospel-centered celebration ahead of the holiday season.
