Gospel music minister Obiora Obiwon who was interviewed on SelahAfrik late last year has further stressed the reason why he delayed the release of his 3rd album – Gold Water.

In an interview with Michael Abimboye of Premium Times last Sunday, when asked why there was a long hiatus before the release of the Gold Water said:

“In the calling I’m in, there is a season of waiting, preparation and fine tuning if you’re truly called. God doesn’t like to put new wine in old wine skin. I did release a couple of singles between 2010 and 2012. I doubt if the revelation that is Gold Water, and the experience contained therein, would have been, if I had pushed and impatiently released an album before this time, on my own terms.”

Premium Times further probed the Gospel minister about the success of the new album and what he is doing to further the album campaign; Obiwon said:

“Like you said it’s new, we’re getting there and this interview also serves the purpose. The concert was mid-November and we’re just fresh out of the Christmas celebrations. It’s strange already releasing an album first then promoting it, but my team and I are on the table. Also in recent history, albums in the gospel genre don’t get as much attention in the public arena or have many promoting platforms within our territory; attention usually comes to works in the genre after some grassroots impact has been made. So we’re pushing and getting there and we also believe we’ll break some of the stereotypes too along the way.”
