In a music landscape driven by singles and social media hits, Ghanaian gospel powerhouse Rev. Obaapa Christy has boldly released her 15th studio album, titled Odeneho (meaning The Sovereign One), officially launched on July 31, 2025. The project is already making waves across both gospel and mainstream music scenes.
A Groundbreaking Collaboration with Sarkodie
At the heart of the buzz is the album’s title track, Odeneho, a moving and unexpected collaboration with award-winning rapper Sarkodie. This unique pairing of gospel and rap has been described as a “spiritual crossover,” bridging genres in a way that’s deeply emotional and impactful.
“This was more than a feature—it was a testimony,” Sarkodie shared. Known for his lyrical depth, he delivers one of his most heartfelt verses to date, calling the experience “a bucket list achievement.”
Rev. Obaapa Christy praised Sarkodie’s sincerity:
“The way Sarkodie sang 'Odeneho'—you could feel his love for God. I’ve never seen him sing with such emotion. God bless him.”
A teaser of the upcoming music video has already gone viral, with both artists promising that the full release will be more than just visuals—it will carry forward the powerful message of the song.
A 12-Track Journey of Faith and Reflection
More than just an album, Odeneho is a spiritual experience—a modern-day psalm book that weaves together themes of hope, praise, gratitude, and divine breakthrough across 12 tracks. It invites listeners into moments of reflection and renewed faith.
Highlights from the album include:
- “No Weapon” – A powerful anthem of spiritual resilience, with an official video scheduled for release on September 4, 2025.
- “Gyae Su” (ft. Brother Sammy) – A song of comfort for those navigating sorrow.
- “Thank You Jesus” (ft. Junior, Christy’s second son) – A personal expression of gratitude.
- Other tracks like “Yesu Mo”, “Waye Yie Nwom Ni”, and “Omma Me Nte Nhwe” continue to emphasize worship and empowerment.
A Spirit-Filled Album Launch
The album launch took place at Alisa Hotel in Accra, blending elegance with spiritual depth. The red carpet welcomed a diverse mix of celebrities, public figures, and church leaders who came to support Christy’s ministry.
Notable guests included:
- Kwabena Kwabena
- Dr. Likee
- Andy Dosty
- Former Education Minister Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum
- Sammy Awuku
- Kwame A Plus
- Several pastors and well-wishers
What began as a formal event soon evolved into a night of worship and testimonies, a true reflection of Obaapa Christy's identity—not just as a gospel artist, but as a spiritual leader.
Why Release a Full Album in a Singles World?
In an exclusive interview, Rev. Obaapa Christy shared the deeper calling behind the project:
“God gives me songs—in dreams, during worship, even in silence. Some have waited years for the right time. I don’t want to serve spiritual ‘snacks’; I want to offer a full spiritual meal.”
This vision extends beyond personal expression. Following her collaboration with gospel legend Prof. Kofi Abraham on “Wiase Mu Abrabo,” Christy revealed that many veteran gospel musicians have approached her to revive their classics—not for fame, but to preserve their spiritual impact.
“They want the youth to feel the power that once moved crowds. They don’t want to be forgotten.”
Prof. Kofi Abraham added:
“She’s not just singing—she’s preserving history. Gospel music is safe in her hands.”
More Than Music—A Ministry of Legacy
With Odeneho, Rev. Obaapa Christy continues to build a bridge between generations. From her breakout hit Me Te Ase to this landmark 15th album, her mission remains clear: to uplift souls and honor the spiritual roots of Ghanaian gospel music.
“This is more than music. It’s ministry. It’s memory. It’s me answering my calling.” – Rev. Obaapa Christy
The full Odeneho album is now streaming on all major platforms. Listen today and be blessed by a project that speaks to both heart and soul.
