Still Above
Let
every thing that has breath praise the Lord (Psalm 150:6)
Still Above is a gospel music group with a difference. . It’s
made up of three guys who have a burning desire to change the
face of gospel music in Uganda and the whole world at large.
Joab,
Justus and Brian are the guys in the crew and their love for
music can be traced all the way back in secondary school. Joab &
Brian used to do their thing as secular rappers at the school’s
talent show i.e. Lubiri SS in the years 1997-1999. But in 2000
things changed God called them to serve in His temple! Joab went
to Rubaga Miracle Center and Brian was taken to Kampala
Pentecostal Church (KPC)
Joab joined the Miracle Teens and
started out as a rapper and vocalist, Brian joined the worship
teem at KPC. They joined together again in 2002 and formed Still
Above. Justus is a new member in the group and he comes Kansanga
Miracle center. He actually originates from the Western region
and so he sings a lot of Kinyakole, Kiswahili and Kinyarwanda.
They
mix R&B, raps and some African style characterized by Kiganda,
Kinyankole, Kinyarwanda and Kiswahili languages. All they need
is to see their new gospel flavor circulate into the whole world
and rescue many souls from the devil’s kingdom. They also
comment that since many things have changed in this world, a new
class of gospel music has to be born out and overtake secular
music. It has a new touch of gospel.
They
have an R&B single called “Everybody praise” released from AV1
studios and Steve Jean was the producer. It’s being played on
most Christian radio stations in Kampala and in the western
region. In their single release, they mixed vocals in Luganda
and English, followed by an inspiration rap.
The message in the song is directed to everyone, at least to
take some time and give praise to the almighty father. “Just
remember where God has pulled you from and all the miracles He
has done for you, you’ll realize that He deserves all the
praise. It’s quite encouraging that these guys have decided to
take up gospel music as their career and we need to pray for
them so that they make it to the top.
“It's
our new campaign to change the sound of gospel music and bring
back God's people who are always pulled into night clubs by the
"secular beat". We are going to make it sound even better so
that those people especially the youth can come back and always
a party in the house of the Lord. Therefore we kindly request
for your maximum cooperation as you support this ministry and
also by the grace of our Lord Jesus that our vision will spread
throughout the whole world and fulfill what the bible says.”
They are looking forward to record their first album that is set
to hit the chats in a few months time.
They minister in conferences, crusades, on parties, in schools,
and in different born-again churches in and around Kampala.
If
you have any conference or crusade going on and would like these
guys to come and bless you with their music, just give them a
call on that number below, they’ll be right there with you.
