Why I want to collaborate with other gospel singers –Olutimi Akorede

By Damiete Braide

For motivational gospel singer, Olutimi Adetutu Akorede aka Akorebami, her songs not only give hope, they also imbibe God’s faithfulness in listeners.

Akorede, who has six singles including You Alone, Till He Comes, Elokanrinkese, Rock of Ages, and Not a Man to her credit, is working round the clock to ensure that her debut album is unveiled very soon.

“My first single, Rock of Ages depicts a cry unto God from the depth of my soul. The song speaks to the struggle of everyday life, and the need for comfort and guidance from God. It conveys a message of hope and resilience despite the difficulties of life; it is a reminder that even in our darkest moments, people can find solace and strength in Christ,” the musician said.

She added: “I am open to do collaborations with renowned gospel artistes as soon as I get the approval from God. I have a platform and opportunity to share my messages, and collaborating with other gospel artistes is an effective way to further spread the message of faith.” 

The gospel artiste further said that among all her singles, she doesn’t have any favourite because “it will be like I am putting a message above another.” 

Akorebami has performed in church concerts and programmes, and she currently ministers online at a church in Edmonton, Canada.
