Download Full Album Oga Na Master By Uchey Ezeomedo
Europe based Nigerian indigenous Gospel artiste, Uchey Ezeomedo has released her debut album titled “Oga Na Master”.
Uchey whose music ministry/career dates back as far back as her early childhood, said; “Growing up in a Catholic family, I was privileged to identify with the junior Charismatic group in the church and it wasn’t long before I began to lead in songs. The group was quite known such that we began to attend charismatic conferences from my village to Enugu city and the surroundings. Everyone saw my singing gift as natural because my maternal uncle until his demise was the music director of the local church”.
Sharing the inspiration behind each song in the album, Uchey said Five of the songs came during worship time and two came in dreams;
“Na obi aka ya” (in his palm) came from my prophetic biblical portion the entire chapter of Isaiah 62. For Zion’s sake I Shall not be quiet… Your land shall no longer be called barren… My first encounter with the prophetic in my final year. That was the bible reference that was said that reflects my life and ordeal. So naturally when I’m encountered with seeming mountainous situations, I go cleaving on God referring to Isaiah 62. Little or no surprise when it burst into songs on one of the occasions; first as a reggae style and eventually the holy spirit toned it down. I’m therefore not surprised by the testimonies that are already following the songs from the few viewers so far. Even against my anticipation, it’s become the most loved so far”, Uchey said.
“Oga na Master” is an expression of the almightiness of God in a believer’s life. So far its the toughest work I’ve had to do with any song.
The first two parts of the melody came to me in my dream and I had to complete it. The beat was more like jazz so I had to think of what to do with it. Seeing that an increased tempo would make it sound like our traditional highlife, I quickly adopted that. My love for the idea of using a language that was once looked down on to praise the author of languages made me choose pidgin English. Finally my personal experience of deliverance, interventions, grace, power and testimonies in my walk with him influenced the topic and my choice of word. In all its the power of our supreme God meeting us at our choice traditional genre and the lowest expression of our local vibes. I have become all things to all man…1 Corinthians 9:19-23 (though the outcome of the instrumentation was not my original conception, my voicing as well, I hope to get them in remix).
“My First Love” This song expresses overwhelming emotions for the object of our love, lord Jesus Christ. Like rehearsing my own part of the bridal song at the wedding of the lamb.That’s also the strength of the emotion that it carries. It’s so expressed in the wordings. I had decided to do it as highlife but I had a change of mind almost at the dying minute because I was concerned that concentrating on the highlife beats people may lose a bit of their attention to the intensity of the confession of our love for him.
“Ekwena ka O gaa” This is also another dream song. It came towards the end of my First ever 14 days water fasting. Only the chorus was given to me so I had to compose all the verses. In the dream I had a stick and was plucking mangoes, two other women were there and were able to share part of the mango even though they didn’t pluck any. Strikingly one didn’t even do as much as say thanks but that didn’t deter what needed to be done which was to give mango because you’ve got the stick. Then suddenly I was hearing the song from a near distance. Ekwena ka o gaa, e kwena ka o gaa na o ga esiri ora obodo ike. (Don’t let IT escape/ slip away, dont let it escape/slip away cos it’ll be difficult for the masses).The ‘IT’ here applies to every individual but differently depending on your field. Simply put, you’ve got something in your hand that is useful for the masses. Do not let ……..(opportunity, talent, skill, position, office, wisdom,etc) slip away, use it to better the masses. Interestingly it’s the first motivational song (without direct religious attribute) That I have received AND ITS SO WELL FITTED FOR THE STRUGGLE OF A NEW NIGERIA, WHERE ALL HANDS HAVE TO BE ON THE DECK TO CONTRIBUTE AND BUILD.
