The Entertainment Achievement Awards

The awards platform was recently launched in Kumasi last week and will recognise outstanding creatives across music, sports, comedy, online media and film sectors.

“The Entertainment Achievement Awards and the way we intend to execute it will initiate a hard-hitting conversation about the Ghanaian creative industry and the potential it wields. It will lead the way in sanitising and transforming Ghana’s entertainment scene in a bid to create artistic products that can firmly compete on any global stage,” Citi TV programmes manager Jessica Opare-Saforo said.

Opare-Saforo said that the station has assembled an academy responsible for collating the nominees following extensive research into the work and impact of Ghana’s entertainers. They include broadcaster Kofi Okyere Darko, multi-instrumentalist and producer Kwame Yeboah, celebrity blogger Ameyaw Debrah, Adinkra Experience CEO Kofi Adinkra and artist and writer Dr Bernard Akoi-Jackson. Additionally, the academy will “work towards a selection of winners in accordance with the criteria of the awards.”

Interested voters can nominate their preferred individuals on http://entertainmentachievementawards.com/nominate/. Deadline for nominations is 20 January 2021.

Ryan Ofei Sings Open The Heavens On Limitless Worship: Accra

Published

on

Ryan Ofei

Ryan Ofei’s voice sounds like God made him solely to praise His name. Thus, it should come as no surprise that Ryan turned down football scholarships in favour of ministering the word of God through his music. In a short period, the Ghanaian/Canadian worshiper has built an incredible repertoire that can only be proof of God’s grace upon his life. Ryan Ofei’s singles (‘No Limits’ & ‘Jehova’) as well as his debut solo project (David’s Heart) have touched souls across continents and led to tours in Europe, North America & Africa. Ryan’s contributions to Maverick City Music, a group he joined in 2021 as a songwriter & performer, has led to several Grammy nominations and a Grammy win. UK Rapper, Stormzy quite recently co-signed Ryan by performing a cover of Ryan’s “Jehova” song at Montreaux Jazz Festival.  ‘Limitless Worship: Accra’is Ryan Ofei’s second solo project and an ode to the Ghanaian roots through which God has blessed his life.

‘Limitless Worship’ opens with the uplifting ‘Hail The Name’ where Ryan Ofei’s voice beams with joy as he tells you to “lift up your eyes, look at the king, isn’t he beautiful?” A question that needs no answering. The chorus of voices that join him to sing “Yahweh” in the hook only heighten the feeling of abundance and beauty that fills you when the song starts. On ‘Amen (Wo Awie)’ Ryan praises God for fulfilling His promises to his servant. Ryan weaves his lyrics beautifully in English and closes it off in Twi on the hook. Ryan and his chorus of beautiful voices belt “Wo Awie, asem a wo kaa yɛ no, bɔhyɛ a wo hyɛɛ me no” which loosely translates to “the promises you made me, you have fulfilled them.” Ghanaian gospel stalwart Joe Mettle also lends his voice in praise with Ryan. More than halfway into the song, it switches into a powerful proclamation of unwavering belief in the promises of God which is also reflected in a switch in instrumentation that shows the intentionality with which Ryan creates music. With 5 songs and clocking in at around 30 minutes, Limitless Worship is a spirit filled showcase of Ryan Ofei’s growth in God and in musical ability. It is a wonderful listen and guaranteed to bring listeners closer to God.

‘Limitless Worship: Accra’ was recorded live in Ghana. It is Ryan Ofei’s first live recording and features elements of African worship blended with contemporary Christian music.

Limitless Worship: Accra’ is now available on all streaming platforms here: https://platoon.lnk.to/limitless-worship-accra
