Empress Gifty releases ravishing video for ‘Awiey3 Pa’
Empress Gifty
Multiple award-winning Ghanaian gospel musician, Empress Gifty has released a ravishing video for his new song titled Awiey3 Pa.
The video directed and shot by renowned director, Skyweb tells the story of a talented young lady who faced challenges growing up.
Gifted with an awe-inspiring voice, she never had the support of her family to exhibit the gift.
Not perturbed by this, on an errand in the market one day, she met a Man of God preaching and decided to join and sing for him.
Unknowing to this young lady, her mother who couldn’t wait any longer at home stormed the market to humiliate her and later sacked her from the house.
Thankfully, this young gifted lady met her destiny changer at the same place she was humiliated. She was signed and taken to the studio by the destiny changer and this young lady became a huge gospel music star in the future.
Interestingly her mother and a friend who conspired to sack her ended up regretting their action after watching her on television.
Awiey3 Pa is premised on Jeremiah 29:11 which says “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”
The song which is Empress Gifty’s first single for the year, is off her album expected to be released before the end of the year.
Empress Gifty has earlier revealed that the song which was written by her colleague, Ewura Abena was inspired by Jeremiah 29:11 which says “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”

Von Sinu releases debut single ‘Thank You’
Von Sinu, an upcoming gospel musician, has released her debut single titled ‘Thank You’ which is gaining popularity on the airwaves and streaming platforms.
‘Thank you’ seeks to appreciate God for his goodness and faithfulness in her life.
In an interview with The Spectator in Accra, Von, who is also a fashion designer said “looking back at my life and what God has told me about myself, I was grateful.
She said she had to record it and later sent it to a friend who has been very instrumental in her being a gospel singer.
She said though there were other songs written and recorded, she thought it was prudent to release ‘Thank you’ as the Bible urges believers to give thanks in Psalm 92:1-2: “It is good to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to Your name”
The song is available on all digital platforms including Youtube, Spotify, Apple music Deezer and Tidal.
