Unequivocally, his unique style of gospel music largely consists of that of RnB, Hip-fuji, Jazz, Ewi (traditional Yoruba chant) injects a breath of fresh air in the Nigerian gospel arena. Already his Album ”You Are God” is fast becoming a favorite in Christian circles[4] and beyond – even in the secular world.
