The Urban gospel show on Dominion TV host merges spirituality with music and uses hip pop as genre in his quest to reach out to his audience with the good news of Jesus Christ. Esaias released his debute album in 2012. The 11 timeless track album,"ABODE FOFRO" which had hit songs like "Superman'' and "Abode foforo'' thriled music lovers all over the world.The GGMA,CCMA nominee is a most wanted anointed rapper who has done over ten collaborations including hit songs with Akesse Brempong,KingzKid,Regardless,Faffa and Dj Jay smoke(just to mention a few) Recently, Esaias released 2 cloy singles titled ASEDA ft Jay shady and Nuttin (a twi rendition of Nuthin by Lecrae). Touching on "OYE ADIE YIE",Esaias Explains "Oye adie yie is an Akan (twi) word that means one who fixes something.It is mostly used among the Ashanti communities to refere to a seamstress /tailor that sowe on mobility. They are mainly specialized in alterations. The "oye adie yie" can walk from town to town in search for clothes (attimes badly torn) to patch. The irony is, almost every Oye adie yie I have seen is old,experienced and patient. Unlike the designer brand taylor,the Oye adie yie will not hesitate to alterate any dress regardless of how big or small the holes might be. All these and more characteristics to me,can be likened to the warmth and receptive persona of Jesus Christ who chooses the foolish(messy) and weak people like me to glorify Himself (1Corinthians1:27) The song was inspired by my personal struggles in life and i believe in saying what you know than what you have no or very little idea of. In the year 2003, i was house arrested by an undignosable odour for two years and personally over heard a group of some women in my neighborhood discuss the fact that i am no good so therefore deserves to die. But on the contrary God heard my cry and not only healed but has honored me so much. I truly am the stone that builders rejected but has become the chief corner stone(Psalm 118:22) as sang in the song. As a nation,''Dumsor'' is a state that we find our selves in at the moment but lets cast the care on God for He cares for us and is the only ONE that can fix this situation.''
