‘Holy Father’ sees Limoblaze continue to balance his silvery lyrical flow and mesmerising melodies with ease. With a blend of vibrant rhythms alongside an uncanny ability to use conscious lyricism to create an atmosphere of faith and hope, fans can look forward to a song set for summer. 

The music video for ‘Holy Father’ will also be released on 19th July. Dynamic shots will showcase the spirit of Limoblaze, from vibrant choirs to breaktaking aerial shots of his hometown Lagos, creating a homecoming energy that is palpable. 

His 12-track album, ‘Young & Chosen’ offers a dynamic and vibrant outlet for young creatives of faith, enabling them to express themselves fully while staying true to their values.

Fans should expect nothing less from this release.

Having emerged triumphant from the MOBO Awards earlier this year, taking home ‘Best Gospel Act’, and building on a stellar year in 2023 where he was recognised as one of Tidal’s rising artists to watch, Limo continues to cement his position as a ‘one to watch’ star.

We’ve got amazing release parties in Lagos, Abuja, Atlanta and an afro gospel Showcase in London on 14th September that I'm really looking forward to as well.

More importantly, I'm hopeful that everything we have planned will inspire and motivate young people to be passionate about bringing hope into the world." ” says Limoblaze.
