WMP working on a continental project :: Mmegi Online

Gospel ensemble, We Must Praise (WMP), is working on an African live music project titled Africa Unite scheduled for December 9, 2017 at Stanbic Bank Piazza. The event will have WMP performing their gospel songs and hymns in different African musical styles and languages.

“This is a prayer for Africa with a lot of atrocities such as wars so we are praying for the African continent. We are studying and researching on different African worship and we praise God so that we can incorporate them in our performance during the concert because after all we worship one God. We want to praise with everyone under one roof,” WMP leader, Vusumuzi Botshelo told Showbiz.

The live performance will have WMP staging performances in different languages and cultures such as Venda, Swahili, Ndebele, Zulu, Kalanga and Tswana to mention but a few. “We are in the stages of composing new material in different languages. We will also be redefining some old hymns into different languages. We are working closely with people from different countries that are mentoring and teaching us the different languages,” he highlighted.
