AFRITUNES WEEK 166 // GA SHI NAN BY KAESTRINGS// COVER BY @AKWASH360

2 days ago

Hello guys!
Welcome to Afri-tunes Week 166. For this week’s rendition, I felt it was only right to present a cover of the inspiring song “Ga Shi Nan” by Min Kaestrings.

The Hausa phrase “Ga shi nan” simply translates to “He’s here.” This song beautifully echoes a powerful biblical truth — that wherever two or three are gathered in God’s name, He is there in their midst. The songwriter uses this message to remind us that no matter where we find ourselves or the challenges we face, God is always with His children. This assurance alone brings peace and encouragement to my soul.

I have a deep appreciation for Min Kaestrings’ music, and this particular song is no exception. His songs have been a consistent source of inspiration to me, and “Ga Shi Nan” stands out as a heartfelt blessing. I feel a personal connection to the message. It feels like God speaking directly to me and to everyone who may need a reminder of His constant presence.

From a musical perspective, the delivery of the song is top-notch. The lead vocalist did an excellent job, skillfully leading and ushering in the backup singers, who also performed beautifully. Their timing, harmonies, and transitions were spot-on, making the overall sound smooth and rich without any vocal clashes.

The instrumentalists also did a fantastic job. Each person clearly understood their role and executed it with both skill and precision. Their coordination added depth and emotion to the performance, and I was truly inspired by their musicianship.

Verse
Where two or three are gathered
Lord You said You’ll be there
So, Lord, we’re here, we honour Your presence
