Online, Diana Asamoah’s audacious decision to release Stepping Stone, a gospel CD that is primarily in English, has generated intense discussions. Fans of her Twi hits are doubting her delivery skills and fluency. Is this overreaching or ambition?
Diana Asamoah, a well-known gospel singer from Ghana, has urged her followers to improve their English in anticipation of her next album, Stepping Stone. In contrast to her typical Twi-language albums, the album will primarily consist of English-language songs, which represents a big change for the artist.
Online responses to the news have been mixed, with many social media users expressing both laughter and interest in the gospel singer’s delivery of this big undertaking. She is not known for her fluency in English.
Diana Asamoah’s career started in the mid-1990s when she released her debut album, Wo na Mani Agyina Wo, in Kumasi with Rev. Simon Yaw Boamah. When Frimprince Music Productions’ Mr. Anane Frimpong volunteered his assistance, she made her debut. She has since put out nine albums, such as Pentecost Gya, which topped the charts for months, and Mabo Wo Din, which is devoted to former President John Agyekum Kufuor. Tetelesta, which is still a mainstay of Ghanaian gospel music, Madanse Die, Pentecost Soree Nwom, and Gospel Old Tunes 2 are other noteworthy compositions.
Among Diana Asamoah’s notable accomplishments are the first African worship concert she organized in Italy and the several prizes she received for her services to gospel music in Italy and Belgium. She made history by releasing an album with notable people, including lawmakers, in attendance, and was recognized as Ghana’s Best Gospel Artist in 2006 and 2008.
Social media is buzzing with discussion about the singer’s daring foray into English gospel music.
