London-Based Worship Minister Kasope Releases Heartfelt Single and Video “Bámiṣé”
Nigerian-British singer, songwriter and worship minister Kasopefoluwa Sote, professionally known as Kasope, has released a deeply personal new single and video, “Bámiṣé” — a Yoruba cry that translates “Help Me” or “Do It for Me.”
Based in London, Kasope blends soulful worship, heartfelt storytelling and rich Yoruba expression, and “Bámiṣé” may be his most honest record yet. The song captures the vulnerable moment of turning to God when life feels uncertain and the strength to move forward seems hard to find — a simple, powerful prayer for divine help, intervention and direction.
The song’s journey mirrors its message. It was written across a period that began before, and continued for six years after, the passing of Kasope’s mother in 2019. The chorus was written before her passing, while the verses and bridge developed in the years that followed, as the singer processed loss while holding on to faith. What began as a spontaneous melody during a choir rehearsal has become, in his hands, a record about grief, dependence on God and hope.
Produced by Olaitan Dada, “Bámiṣé” is more than a song of worship — it is Kasope’s personal prayer transformed into music, inviting listeners to bring their own struggles, uncertainties and hopes before God and simply say, “Bámiṣé.” The single and its official video are out now on streaming platforms.
Few releases carry a six-year story inside them. That “Bámiṣé” was begun in one season of Kasope’s life and finished in another, after loss had reshaped everything, gives the record a weight that cannot be manufactured in a studio. It sounds like what it is: a prayer that survived.

Vancouver worship outfit The Slower I Go released their single “Holy Sanctuary” on March 20 through NRT Music, a song built less like a performance and more like a prayer meeting caught on record. Credited to The Slower I Go alongside Noah Priebe and Brooklyn Summer, the single was written by Logan Murph, Brooklyn Summer and Noah Priebe.
The song’s heartbeat is a simple, repeated cry: “Come through, come through, come through.” Rather than building toward a single big moment, “Holy Sanctuary” circles that refrain the way a congregation circles a prayer, letting repetition do the work of surrender. It is worship written for the room as much as for the listener, an invitation to slow down, as the band’s name suggests, and make space for God to move.
The Slower I Go is a four-piece made up of Noah Priebe, Brooklyn Summer, Dacey Lane and Logan York, and “Holy Sanctuary” has not been their only word in 2026. The year has also brought the singles “All Eyes On You” and “Rejoice,” and the group followed “Holy Sanctuary” with “SHOCK!,” a collaboration with Zane Walls that landed in NewReleaseToday’s new releases for the week of June 5, showing a band comfortable moving between intimate worship and bolder, pop-leaning territory.
Canada’s worship scene has always been at its strongest when its songs are born in local rooms, and The Slower I Go sound like exactly that: a Vancouver band writing from the middle of a praying community. “Holy Sanctuary” is their open door, and the invitation could not be simpler. Come through.
