Ernest Wiafe-Koranteng, a member of the defunct music trio, Dunsin, has revealed that he composed his new song ‘Abba Father’ after he made a decision to quit music.
The hit maker with a knack for highlife has decided to praise God in his new song dubbed, ‘Abba Father’.
Known in Showbiz as Wiafe, he disclosed that Abba Father was a song of praise expressing God’s ability to vindicate, show mercy and set one up for unlimited victories.
Speaking to The Spectator Agoro, he said even though it’s a reflection of his life, the song was relatable to anyone who has been vindicated from all the tribulations in life.
Touching on the production process, Wiafe said it got to a difficult point in his career where he made a decision to quit music.
He said after some time, his producer Nad Xclusive inspired and encouraged him not to give up on his career.
Wiafe said he received inspiration from his spirit to do something with the name ‘Abba Father’ and it happened so fast that within a week they had finished with the production.
Wiafe said, the feedback on the song had been encouraging, saying that “everyone who has heard the song loves it but we need to give it a bigger push to reach the masses.”
Currently he has a visualiser out on his YouTube channel Wiafe SwiitLypz with plans advanced for the main video.
