Akwerius debuts on SpitFireHipHop with “Amen Ra.”
Ghanaian singer/songwriter Akwerius presents “Amen Ra,” the lead single from Bright Side, his forthcoming album dropping soon on his Music Is Healing imprint.
Claiming Boston as stomping grounds but currently residing in Mount Shasta, California, Akwerius has toured extensively in the USA and beyond, performing his original style called “Afro Roots Hop,” a fusion of roots chanting and hip-hop poetry over African drum-infused dubs. “Singing songs of praise is likely the most important thing human beings can do at this time,” Akwerius says.
It is written in the Scriptures that man is to put God first, in every endeavor, that all things may be added. There’s no better way for me to do this then write devotional songs like ‘Amen Ra’. In them, there’s mourning and sorrow too, but there’s always gratitude, hope and consolation to lift you above it, into the Bright Side.”
