“UK-based artiste, Yusuf Yakubu teams up with Minstrel K.I in his new release BURN.”
[su_dropcap style=”flat” size=”4″]Y[/su_dropcap]usuf Yakubu formerly known as ‘Gospel General’ is a UK-based Gospel minister, born and brought up in Nigeria, a photographer, meteorologist and an entrepreneur who just released his highly-anticipated single, BURN. The sensational worshipper and minister launched the new song on Sunday across all streaming platforms.
While the title captures the ‘Consuming Power of the Lion,’ the song captures a heart cry in the words of Prophet Jeremiah – Then I said, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name. But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with forbearing, and I could not stay (Jeremiah 20:9, KJV). Yusuf shares a heavy dose of encouragement with his new song;
“A broken and a contrite heart, an immense desire to turn from old ways to the way of the Lord. The cry of a continual fellowship and touch with the Holy Spirit. A prayer to only does what Jesus has laid in my heart to do. Only a heart that is consumed by the fire of God can do such things. A heart that carries and runs with the fire of the Spirit of God. This song is a prayer.”
The song is a reminder of how the word of God can transform our lives from the inside out. Only when we allow the Spirit in us to burn can we really experience the power of God first-hand.
Yusuf has featured the likes of Caleb David, Tolu Adesina, Fury, Exodus, Jeya, Mista Damz and others. Some of his hit songs are – Why You Love Me, Supreme Soldiers, Just Can’t, Over Do, Surrender, Trust You, and Chilling amongst others. He is the CEO of Noohraphotos.

The apex of gospel music awards in Africa called “Christian Legendary and Impact Makers Awards (CLIMA AFRICA)” dazed the gospel music artists and the entire industry with eight (11) new Categories.
This year, with the Awards expanding outside the shores of Nigeria to the other parts of Africa for the second time, it has also expanded its scope of nominations to include more African regions and Christian Impact Makers, Artists, Managers, and other arms of the gospel music industry. This has increased the number of Award categories from 28 to 39.
According to Uwak Mike, the CEO of ClIMA AFRICA Magazines and Awards; “The 2022 edition promises to be the best of all editions; because the collaborations with partners from other African Countries will enable us reach more Impact makers and Artiste whom we couldn’t reach in the past. Moreover, the introduction of New Categories to celebrate Producers, Managers, Stage Performers, Gospel music legends etc. is also a boost on our profile”.
The theme for the 6th edition (EKO 2022) is AFRICA IS RISING. This is a clarion call to arise and take our position as the best gospel music industry globally. A call to see gospel artists unites, with one mind, heart, soul and spirit till we capture the world with our God-given talents for God.
Meanwhile; the Awards Event is Scheduled for Saturday, 8th Oct 2022 at AGIP HALL OF MUSON CENTRE, Lagos; and the voting will commence on the 12 midnight of August 1st via the official website www.climaafrica.com
