Following the success of her first album, upcoming gospel singer/ songwriter Grace Komolafe is set to take the world by storm with her inspirational gospel songs.
Popularly called Awoko by her fans, Awoko, who is also an actress, launched her first album entitled “Thank You” in June in Lagos, which was produced by Awoko Music International.
The launch was graced by some personalities including the Lagos State Chairman, Association of Juju Musician of Nigeria (AJUMN) Ambassador Segun Nabi and National Coordinator, Association of Juju Musician of Nigeria (AJUMN) Champion Kunle Opio.
A native of Lampese in Akoko, Edo Local Government Area in Edo State, Awoko, who grew up in a Christian family, started her musical career at the age of 12 in the church choir ministry. But she never knew it would be her major career in life.
“At the age of twelve, I already discovered myself, I got motivated, which made me stick to what I know best, my parent saw it coming and gave me the total support and freedom, ” said Awoko who has performed at various events such as special praise programmes, open crusade, musical concerts, wedding ceremonies, house warming and so on.
Speaking on her challenges, she revealed that despite all the rough and tough journeys so far, she never gave up because of the passion for music, “although some people plotted distractions just to my musical career, but my God remained faithful to me; my zeal and passion for music kept me going.”
