Here is a new single from Uchay Davis titled ‘Oghene Tega’, a song of thanksgiving from a brother who escaped death from a terrible car accident. The incident which almost cost him his life has brought him even closer to God as he relentlessly glorifies Him.
On ‘Oghene Tega’, Mr Uchay Davis stands away from the regular sound of praise songs to render a piece of music that has all the essential extras to appeal to a wide audience of Africans and people who love African music.
You cannot mistake the heavy Zulu undertones that makes this song quite a unique piece of music. Its like praising God with the whole of Africa in one song.
DOWNLOADHe had the accident during d period he entered for a singing contest. Even with serious injuries, Uchay went to d finals of the competition and won the grand price.
ABOUT UCHAY DAVIS
Uchenna Davis Azubuike is a graduate of Mechanical engineering from the Federal University of Technology Owerri and hails from Abia State. Uchay discovered his ministry as a praise and worship leader in school and has served as a choir Director in his fellowship.
He started out playing drums till two of his friends inspired him into singing. He developed so much passion for his music since and has worked hard at getting better. Obviously, the hard work put in is paying off. He often says ‘I am the best’ because he believes that anything worth doing is worth doing well. Speaking to us, he explained that he says this because he believes he must be the best that God wants him to be in all he does.
This young amiable man served his nation in Bonny Island, Rivers State, and it was during his service year that he entered for a singing competition which had a record deal and some other attractive perks attached to its grand prize.
He was doing quite well through the stages of the competition and this gave him quite a following. However, on the week of the grand finale, he had a fatal accident which almost took his life. As God would have it, he survived it. Amazingly, with the patches on his body, the wounds and bruises, he still went for the grand finale, sang and won the grand prize. Now, tell us that aint relentless!
After that victory amidst the seeming tragedy, he got serious in the studio and eventually released his debut album titled ‘Standing Tall’. This album was released despite the challenges he faced and he gave it that name because, with the grace of God, he stood tall against the odds that tried to stop the project.
Uchay’s musical style is quite impressive. He has a thing with mixing urban contemporary music with a fusion of African and folk music. What comes out as a product of this fusion is a perfect blend of music that jumps at you with cultural undertones but relevant enough to thrill you with its urban contemporary appeal. In other words, what you get is a stroke of maestro. Indeed, a master piece.
