What Happens When AfroHouse, Amapiano, and Gospel Collide? Discover “Canopy,” the Uplifting Anthem the World Didn’t Know It Needed

By: Zexprwire

Accra, Ghana, 21st August 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, When the rhythms of AfroHouse and Amapiano meet the uplifting message of Gospel, something powerful emerges, and it’s called AfroGospel. This fast-rising genre is reshaping how the world experiences faith-driven music, blending African sounds like Afrobeats, Amapiano, and Highlife with lyrics that inspire hope, joy, and positivity.

At the heart of this movement is Ghanaian trailblazer Scott Evans, who has teamed up with Nigerian star Rehmahz to deliver an electrifying new single, “Canopy.” Produced by internationally acclaimed hitmaker Nektunez (signed to Akon’s Konvict Music), the song is a vibrant fusion of rhythm and spirit.

“Canopy” celebrates God’s covering and protection, reminding listeners that even in life’s storms, there is safety under His presence. The track pushes the boundaries of contemporary gospel with its pulsating dance energy, while still carrying deep spiritual resonance.

Scott Evans explains:

“‘Canopy’ is a reminder that no matter the storms of life, God remains our covering. Teaming up with Rehmahz and Nektunez brought this message to life in a way that transcends borders.”

Rehmahz, celebrated for his soulful delivery and genre-bending style, adds:

“This song is more than music—it’s an experience. We wanted people to dance, rejoice, and still be reminded of God’s faithfulness.”

With the creative mind behind several global Afrobeat and Amapiano hits at the helm, “Canopy” bridges gospel with a world sound that resonates far beyond the church walls. It’s a song equally at home on playlists, radio airwaves, dance floors, and gatherings of faith.

Since its release, “Canopy” has been received with overwhelming positivity, amassing over 20,000 streams within just four days. The early momentum signals the song’s strong potential to break barriers and push AfroGospel further onto the global stage.

The release of “Canopy” marks another milestone in the rapidly growing AfroGospel movement, a genre positioning African gospel artists on the global stage with a sound that is modern, relevant, and deeply rooted in faith and culture.

“Canopy” is now available on all digital streaming platforms.
