“My Goal for 2016 and all years to Come, through failure and triumph I won’t stop. I no longer live in a season but in embrace. This as my lifetime. History will eventually forget the details of seasons, but it never forgets the legacy of your time. And in my lifetime I preached the Gospel. Even in my best and worst moments, because who I am does not change who Christ is, but who Christ is can Change who I am,” said Abel Chungu Musuka, moments before the release of “Never Left”.
Pompi and Mag 44 have also been to Uganda. UG Christian News has learnt that, after having releasing his second album Broken English, Pompi says Atmosphere, the company that he has started, will aim at promoting up-and-coming artistes.
“I feel gospel music can’t be bound to a western kind of sound, even with our African ethnic sound, we can create music that glorifies God,” Pompi, who describes himself as a “down to earth and ambitious African artiste” he said in an interview with Daily Mail Zambia.
