African popular music (also styled Afropop,  Afro-pop or Afro pop), like African traditional music,  is vast and varied. Most contemporary genres of African popular music  build on cross-pollination with western popular music. Many genres of popular music like blues, jazz, afrobeats, salsa, zouk, and rumba derive to varying degrees on musical traditions from Africa, taken to  the Americas by enslaved Africans. These rhythms and sounds have  subsequently been adapted by newer genres like rock, and rhythm and blues. Likewise, African popular music has adopted elements, particularly the musical instruments and recording studio techniques of western music. The term does not refer to a specific  style or sound but is used as a general term for African popular music. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/olubanjo-adigun/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/olubanjo-adigun/support

We  are approaching the most celebratory weekend in all of history: the  death and resurrection of Jesus Christ 2,000 years ago, that forever  shifted eternity. We call the day of Jesus’ death “Good Friday”. They  beat, flogged, and nailed Jesus to a cross to suffer a painful death.  His followers cried out as they saw the one who they thought would save  them die. The promised Messiah was dead, and everyone lost all hope.  This doesn’t sound like a very good Friday.\nBut it didn’t end there.  What appeared to be the most devastating day in history became the  greatest day in history. On the third day since his death, they found  the tomb empty. No one had taken His body; he was, and is, alive.\nHe defeated the grave, conquered our sin, and set us free. Now that is a good Friday.\nThe  death and resurrection of Jesus Christ is significant. Without it we  would be spiritually dead, broken, and hopeless, eternally separated  from the God of love. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came to make a way.\nRomans 6:23 says, “The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord\n\n--- \n\nThis episode is sponsored by \n· Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app\n\n--- \n\nSend in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/olubanjo-adigun/message\nSupport this podcast: https://anchor.fm/olubanjo-adigun/support

I am the first seed of 7 siblings, born into a typical low income self employed fashion design Baptist Christains. Born in Beilo Kom in the North West region, raised in the South West region of Cameroon and later moved to South Africa via road across 5 different African countries. I lived in South Africa for 23 years where I conceived and gave birth to my son. Growing up as a child I was always attracted to music. I listened to Miriam Makheba\'s music always as well as other music and I always told myself when I grow up I want to be like her. As a child I would gather the kids in my community and pretend as though I was on the stage with a spoon representing a microphone and sing some church songs and they will cheer me. In my secondary school I tried joining the choir but was never given the chance but in high school I was welcomed into the choir where I did sometimes play the drums as well. After my A\'levels as I awaited to go into the university I taught in secondary school and whiles there I formed a choir. Whiles working in Yaounde Cameroon as a senior research technician, now I know it was the Holy Spirit that led me to form an all female acapela group. I discussed the idea with a close friend at the time and she ralied 4 other females and the group was born. TS. This group later represented Cameroon in South Africa in 1995. Now that I write I hear the Holy Spirit reminding me as to why I got hooked to Mama Africa Miriam Makheba of South Africa. After about a decade and half the desire to come up with a solo Gospel Album never departed from me and so in 2015 I started working on my solo Album which was released in April of 2017. No one in my blood family believed in me except my little sister Mildred who never stopped encouraging me. Since then I have never stopped believing in me and day after day the Lord keeps on ordering me steps up this point and further.  For further information email me at comfortnabimgeng@yahoo.com\nTop 20 African Podcast You Must Follow In 2021\n\n--- \n\nThis episode is sponsored by \n· Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app\n\n--- \n\nSend in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/olubanjo-adigun/message\nSupport this podcast: https://anchor.fm/olubanjo-adigun/support
