Watching Alex play the Oja puts one in the spiritual realm, while Onyebeat knows how to garnish his music with his spectacular tenor. Kudos

As always, this is beyond expectations. I was literally taken over by this piece. Well done @Onyebeat and Sir Alex Ugwu🔥🔥🔥

[@agric-tecture]

Wowwww.... This is good music for the soul. I'm pentecostal, but my God, this is heartwarming. Heard your 'umu zayon' from someone and ran to KZbin to look for you. And honestly I'm more than pleased. All your renditions are indeed great work of art. The production and lyrics are topnotch.

[@onyebeat]

@agric-tecture thank you so much for your kind words. I'm glad the music made an impact. God bless you

[@RitaBenson-v6g]

[@chinasalaura5136]

Wow!! See perfect combo Na - Mr. Alex & Mr. Charles... Unu egbuola anyi oooo 👏👏👏👏👏 The Catholic Church has the traditional Christianity transferred from Christ to St Peter and down to Pope Francis. N'ezie, Zayon anyi bu Ala-Igbo.

[@DanielAzubuine]

VOXCLAN to the world!!!!

[@Fr_KevinChukwurah]

Beautiful! Thanks brothers and sister for this beautiful ode to the Gift of the Priesthood of Christ extended to us unworthy servants of Christ. May the Priesthood of Christ continue to be a blessing for us all, amen.

[@onyebeat]

Amen....thank you so much Padre

[@Houseofpowei]

When Alex plays his flute, he's no longer in our realm 🔥🔥

[@AweleUmeh]

I am telling you. If you experience him live with it, gosh! You'll be so overwhelmed💯

[@chiehiurabosa]

Alex Ugwu is a different animal with that Oja🙌 Definitely made me enjoy this already great music even more

[@fredrickparker01]

Plus no one sounds like that on the Oja. Man's just inventing and reimagining the whole Oja thing

[@SandraGregs]

Asin!!!! That ending was out of this world. AHHHH!!!

[@michaelsolomon6033]

The ending part needs to be studied as 6 credit course

[@esmario7921]

Omooo Alex de play Oja The Oja literally kept me going through out the song💯💯 a rush of “oxytocin” + “serotonin” emitting simultaneously. Bro flesh and blood did not reveal what u played to you. Oja sounded clean , refined and Ojaic . Alex Ugwu is who he says HE is. Lovely composition by the way. I sight my guy @BoyV

[@janeayomide01]

HE absolutely IS💯

[@okeremartins1047]

Guuuuuy!!! Ah!! Onwubuya and Alex❤❤❤(combo 🔥).. make Una just kill me🥰🥰... This is just too Gooood... E-victus...nice choir directing. Abeg make Una share with me copy ooo🙏

[@johnrayan1]

This all the more special because of the Oja and the total Africanness of this production. God bless Onyebeat and Alex Ugwu for this gem

[@onyebeat]

God bless you 😊

[@michaelsolomon6033]

Oginidi!!!!! Charles and Alex, ogini bu ihea....daaaaaaaallllluuuuuu nu ndioma m. To all the team involved in this masterpiece, Ekene dikwara unu

[@obinnaoragwu8162]

But in all this. I have some to say. The video is good. But the "ebube" the song came with is not fully expressed in the video. There is this shock that ran down my spin on seeing the short advert yesterday. The feeling is something I can't explain. But the video did not fully express the "ebube" this song has. This song is enough to set any Catholic Priest on fire, any seminarian or even guys that went to the seminary are not left out. The power and the emotions behind this song is so strong that the expression of artistic genius in the video must have to match the God-like nature of the song. You have a song that can feature in all priestly ordination. I need to still go a few rounds. My night will be peaceful because of this song.

[@VodkultureNigeria-hy4tw]

You’ve captured my thoughts perfectly…this song should bring not tears to the eyes but men to their knees in total remorse and surrender. Omo!😢😢❤

[@isabelgunner]

The collab we've all been waiting for...Onyebeat and Ozige the ancestral spirit❤

[@peaceagholor]

Well done @Charles and @VoxClan. More grace dear friends. Awwh.. See Fr Chima. ❤

[@fredrickparker01]

Two absolute LEGENDS Onyebeat and Alex Ugwu God bless you two and everyone that made this possible

[@onyebeat]

Thank you so much

[@janeayomide01]

Alex and Charles have killed it. Every good Igbo choral song at this point should have an Oja in it. My God, the interludes just set you into the mood for the verses and Lord what was the ending with the Oja😫😫🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. Ozige be calming down nah! Thanks to you guy for given the African priests a befitting song This collab is a match made in Heaven❤❤❤

[@rosechidera]

Any thing Alex Ugwu and Onyebeat touches just turns to gold. Beautiful work from my two favourite composers❤ That ending was surely from the realm Alex Ugwu took us in 'Onyenweanyi'. Thank you Maestros

[@RitaBenson-v6g]

My VOXCLAN!!!!! This is amazing ooooo😢❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@obinnaoragwu8162]

The number of times I have watched this is older than I am.

[@laQuaver]

The collaborators are all powerful musicians in their own right... There's really no surprise that this execution turned out a masterpiece (both in writing and production). Weldone to you Charles (Onye Beat)..you have really honed your craft. You deserve your accolades. To other collaborators (Victus/Voxclan and Alex), there couldn't have been any better co-conspirators than you all. I am proud to know to you guys...keep up the good work. PS: Hope this piece is scored/orchestrated like this as it sounds so that it can be replicated live? That's my only request because of we nor fit perform these kinda songs on a live stage, the experience isn't truly complete o. 😎😀

[@onyebeat]

Thank you so much great Maestro. God bless you for your kind words. Yes actually there's a grand score available, it'll be amazing to see it performed live in its full scale.
