Celebrated Gospel Musician, Kofi Owusu Dua Anto popularly known as KODA has released his sixth albumtitled ‘Keteke’. The album is already receiving rave rating from music lovers and critics.

Ahead of the release of the album, KODA released two prelude singles ofF the album – ‘Aseda’, and ‘Game Over’, featuring Nigerian Gospel Musician, Eben.

According to KODA, ‘Keteke’ is a a rickety train that paraded the western coastal lines of Takoradi to Kumasi in the 70s and 80s. KODA draws a parallel between the eventful ‘Keteke’ rides of his childhood and life events into a music project he believes will resonate with everyone.

“Fond memories of my childhood trips in Keteke to go see my grandparents in Kumasi were always eventful. However, no matter the challenges or experiences that fraught the journey, be it the engine, unannounced stops or delays, one is always assured of getting to his destination. This is same with life and the Christian walk. This album taps into my musical journey and mirrors the experiences on the “Keteke” with life by having songs that speak to the different phases of life and thereby relatable to real life situations of listeners. You will find songs of prayer, praise, thanksgiving, worship and more carved creatively in my musical influences – highlife, chorale, classical music, contemporary Christian music, reggae & more – on the album” KODA recalls.

The 12-track album features Pastor Joe Beechem, Joe Mettle, Harmonious Chorale, LIC Choir, Abigail Nkansah, Jumbo, and Eben.
