The list would have been incomplete without adding the “Chinecherem” crooner, Neon Adejo, who seem to have hacked this singing of a thing.

The Freenation signee who got the whole industry worshipping with his hit song “N’Obi”, gave gospel music lovers exactly what to expect from the talented artiste who became the first label mate to one of Nigeria’s most popular and outstanding Gospel artiste Ada Ehi.
Paul uses lyrical genius to put into rhythm and words, the indescribable, unconditional love of God.
