Guardian Angel and Manolo brings you Kamata

Guardian Angel and Manolo says Kamata. This comes a few weeks after Guardian Angel released his single Kenya. Later, he performed the song during the 56th Madaraka day in Narok. It is a sign that there might be more cooking. The gospel artist duo has now come with Kamata. Kamata roho yangu kamata simply means that Christ has taken care of our hearts. Isn’t this some good gospel.

The gospel industry is slowly being revived with this kind of work.

Manolo is new to the industry and Guardian Angel has introduced him in this new song Kamata.  Manolo’s real name is Emmanuel Mwongela. He is a top Kenyan Singer, Freestyle Rapper, Poet, Songwriter and Instrumentalist.

Production

Kamata is the work of Guardian Angel and Manolo. You can testify that there is a great talent here. The video was directed by Kevin Bosco Jnr and the audio produced by Vicky Pondis & Sifa. In addition to what the team did, the video is good and very creative. Further, the beats and sound are in sync.

Also, I would say that the video has met international standards. Kenyan gospel industry is slowly improving and I hope that this continues. The choice of background is well thought of.

Presentation of Kamata

Guardian Angel truly knows what he is doing. Look at what they are offering their fans with Manolo. In this case Kamata Lyrics are amazing. Also the way they are taking turns is well coordinated.

‘Roho ya binadamu ina vitu nyingi chafu, Inabidi nikupe yangu we utaiosha na damu.’ This is all about salvation. They are just trying to tell you that Christ cleanses our souls with his blood. This is simply what the Bible says.

Also, they talk of Christ holding them and how he saved them. Kamata is repeated severally in the song, not only in the chorus but also in some lines.

We need Christ to hold us. This is a great jam and Guardian Angel is still holding to his call of ministering through songs. I give the song a rating of 7/10. The language can be understood by the old and more by the youths.

 

Guardian Angel opens up about the call and powerful sermon that changed his life for the better

Popular gospel singer, Guardian Angel speaks up about a powerful sermon that moved him to reconcile with his father after 30 years.

Speaking to Word Is, Audiphaxad Peter reveals:

I was moved by a church sermon by our pastor, which was about honoring our parents.

I had to even ask for his phone number from my relatives.

On his Instagram pages, the gospel artist discloses to his fans that he has finally reconciled with his father through God and intervention of his reverend.

It hasn´t been easy.

The Lord did it.

If you can relate and you feel inspired, go ahead and make that call.

The music doctor urges all that feel inspired to go ahead and make that step that they never will regret.

It will change your life. It will change the world.

Thank you Rev. @dodzweit for the powerful sermon that has turned my life around.

I feel like a real man.

The ´Nadeka´ hit maker just at age 11, was forced to live in the streets after his parents parted ways.

His moment of rescue was back when former President Daniel Arap Moi approved a rehabilitation plan for streets families in major towns and the city.

I have realized that even though he had differences with my mum, he is still my dad and I am happy now.

We have never met so that I know what really what happened between them.

It might have been a difficult time for the 11-year old at the time and till date because he is yet to understand what actually transpired between his parents.

Guardian Angel however expresses that even amidst the differences, he will remain to be his father.

“The child was innocent didn’t deserve to die” Groove winner Guardian Angel recounts poisoning ordeal

Guardian Angel’s story is typical of most celebs who rose from poverty to make it big in the industry. The 2018 Groove Artist of the year however went through a near-death experience while he was still a boy.

The singer narrated his story during an interview on Kiss FM. Guardian reveals that poverty forced his mother and him to live with her mom’s friend.

He however says the friend got tired of hosting them and she attempted to poison him just to get rid of them. The evil friend ended up poisoning her own child instead as her daughter mistakenly ate the food that was laced with poison.

“It was God. He gave me a chance and protected me. Actually…that day my mum gave me a thorough beating because I came home late from school. Kumbe hii kuja late is what saved me. We no longer talk with the woman,” said Guardian Angel.

She didn’t deserve to die

Guardian says his family didn’t celebrate the child’s death because she was innocent. Her mom and him however moved out of the evil woman’s house after the incident.

“As a family, we did not celebrate of course because the child was innocent and she did not deserve to die. Vile walienda matanga, tulikua tushahama na mabeshte wengine pia wa matha. When mum came back, we rented a single room house na tukaanza kuishi huko. We only had a bedsheet, a stove and a sufuria. Life was still very hard there because my mother was jobless and she had to raise money for rent,” Guardian Angel narrated.

This is why Guardian Angel might be the gospel ‘kid’ taking over the entertainment industry

When it comes to delivering gospel music, the likes of Bahati and Willy Paul among others seem to have done a good job – but after the scandals it becomes hard to determine whether they are really out to win souls for Christ or are in this for the money.

However, one Guardian Angel who has released a couple of songs in the past has been showing potential when it comes to releasing music. From most of his projects it is easy to see that his goal has nothing to do with fame or money like most artists we have come across.
