Lordina Soprano Releases Gospel Version of “Welcome Home”

Lordina Soprano has turned the hit track "Welcome Home" by music band Osibisa into a gospel track.

The gospel artiste took time out to compose a Christian version of the track which is set to be released on the 6th of March, 2021 to commemorate Ghana’s 64th Independence Day.

"After the release of “Coming 2 America”, a sequel to the original 1988 film starring Eddie Murphy, on 5th March 2021. I am indeed excited and believe this month is indeed a homecoming month in the world," she enthused.

Recorded, mixed, and mastered by Flashman Music while the Video was shot and directed by Felix Blay Anaman of Blayz Pictures, the popular international Afro Rock piece, composed and originally rendered by Osibisa, a Ghanaian Afro-Rock band, founded in London in 1969 by four expatriate African and three Caribbean musicians is now set to take a Christian approach.

The song talks about travellers coming back home after being away for long using phrases like “Come with me on this sacred trip back to the promised land”.

There is no place like home, in as much as adjusting to new culture or way of life is not easy, when you are able to overcome that phase, life becomes way better than in someone’s land. What comes to mind when this song is played is also “slavery” and so Africans can really relate to this song.
