UK-based Ghanaian gospel singer Sonnie Badu has announced the release of his fifth album August 23.

The album “Soundz of Africa” was recorded in November 2014 at the New Psalmist Baptist Church, Maryland.

Recorded under the theme “African Gospel in Classical Hymns and Songs”, the project sees guest appearances from American starts Jonathan Nelson and Darwin Hobbs, as well as his wife Annie Badu.

The album will also be available on ITunes, Amazon, CD Baby and Google Play.
