MOG Music has opened his 2026 account with “Holy,” a worship single that puts the holiness of God at the centre of the song. The single was released on February 6, 2026, and adds another entry to a catalogue that has made the Ghanaian worship leader one of the most recognisable voices in African gospel.

Born Nana Yaw Boakye, MOG Music is a singer, songwriter and pastor whose ministry grew out of Royalhouse Chapel International in Accra. He first broke through with his 2016 debut album “New Wine,” and songs such as “Be Lifted,” “Elohim” and “Fakye” turned his live worship recordings into fixtures in churches well beyond Ghana. His “Koinonia” live album series, released in two phases, deepened that reach and presented his sound at its most congregational, built for rooms full of people singing along.

“Holy” sits in that same tradition. Where some worship singles chase a crossover moment, MOG Music’s work has consistently aimed at the altar, and a song built entirely around the holiness of God is a statement of intent for the year ahead. It also continues a run of form that has carried him from Accra to international stages, including his Back to Basics worship experience, which reached London in 2026.

The honours behind the name are substantial. MOG Music won Male Vocalist of the Year at the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards in both 2020 and 2021, and his annual New Wine concert has run for more than a decade with support from across Ghana’s gospel community. He remains, by any measure, one of the defining worship voices of his generation.

“Holy” is available now on streaming platforms.

Xolly Mncwango did not go to the studio to chase a moment — she captured one where it happened. The South African gospel minister released a live double single on May 15, 2026, pairing “Ithemba Lethu (Live at Durban ICC/2025)” with “Ngegama Lakho (Live at Durban ICC/2025),” both recorded at the Durban ICC and released through Universal Music (Pty) Ltd.

“Ithemba Lethu” — translated “Our Hope” — is the emotional center of the release. The song speaks directly to believers in uncertain seasons, carrying a message of hope, trust and perseverance in God. Mncwango’s performance is marked by sincerity and emotional strength, moving between vulnerability and confidence as the live instrumentation and layered harmonies build around her. Nothing about it feels manufactured; it sounds like a room full of people who needed the song as much as they came to sing it.

“Ngegama Lakho” completes the pairing, and together the two tracks make the double single feel like a complete worship encounter rather than two separate releases. Supported by a full live band and a responsive audience, the recordings preserve the atmosphere of authentic African gospel worship — the swell of the crowd, the weight of the room, and a lead voice that knows exactly when to press in and when to let the moment breathe.

The release marks another important milestone in Mncwango’s career as she continues to expand her reach within the gospel music industry. At a time when many listeners are searching for encouragement, healing and renewed faith, she has answered with a project that points them back to hope — recorded live, delivered honestly, and meant to be experienced, not just heard.

Both “Ithemba Lethu” and “Ngegama Lakho” are available now on all major digital streaming platforms.
