Renowned gospel music icon, Dr. Yinka Ayefele, M.O.N., has ushered in the festive season with the release of his highly anticipated 2024 album, Tungba Praise Promax. The new project, which debuted on digital platforms on December 16, 2024, masterfully combines the vibrant energy of three distinct music genres—Juju, Fuji, and Amapiano—into four captivating tracks.
As disclosed in a release signed by Mr. Samson Akindele, Group Head, Corporate Affairs, Fresh Nigeria and Yinka Ayefele Limited, Dr. Ayefele’s innovative inclusion of Amapiano, a globally popular subgenre of house music with influences of jazz, soul, and lounge beats, underscores his musical versatility and commitment to staying relevant in the dynamic world of gospel and contemporary music.
In Tungba Praise Promax, Ayefele delivers his signature blend of rhythmic intensity, powerful percussions, and melodious vocal harmonies, all performed by the legendary Merry Makers Band. This unique soundscape creates an uplifting experience, combining praise, motivational messages, and heartfelt prayers, wrapped in a vibrant fusion of Juju and Fuji rhythms.
Explaining the inspiration behind the album title, Dr. Ayefele likened “Promax” to a metaphorical solution for the emotional, spiritual, economic, and social challenges that many face globally. “With Tungba Praise Promax, I aim to offer hope, joy, and relief through music that inspires deep reflection, gratitude, and unrestrained celebration,” he said.
The album is now available for streaming and download on multiple digital platforms, including Apple Music, Spotify, Boomplay, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, and Deezer, among others. Fans can also access it on TikTok, Audiomack, SoundCloud, Tidal, and Beatport.
For those who prefer a physical copy, the CD version of Tungba Praise Promax will hit the shelves next week. The CDs are being produced in Poland to ensure compatibility with a wide range of playback devices.
Dr. Ayefele’s Tungba Praise Promax is a gift to music lovers this festive season, promising to uplift spirits and bring vibrant joy to homes and gatherings worldwide.
