SriBuO Gospel Explosion - Ohemaa Mercy - Nyame Bohye
There is something very interesting about Ghanaian gospel music. Christianity was introduced to Ghana by missionaries prior to the country being colonized. This foreign religion was taken by a lot of Ghanaians and made their own. Music has always been an integral part of Ghanaian culture and when Ghanaians adopted Christianity, they tailored Gospel music to suit our culture. To this very day, one could argue that Gospel music is one of the few genres of Ghanaian music left that actually sounds Ghanaian. The rhythms, percussion, winged and stringed instruments all used have been able to escape the westernization that seems to be plaguing a lot of other forms of Ghanaian music. Ohemaa Mercy's "Nyame Bohye" album provides an exemplary instance of this staying-true-to-roots quality that Ghanaian Gospel possesses.
