In a powerful and emotional moment that has captured the attention of fans across East Africa, Tanzanian bongo flava artist Harmonize, known for his energetic performances and hit songs, made a profound commitment to faith in a local church.
The musician, whose real name is Rajab Abdul Kahali, was seen being prayed over by church leaders as he publicly repented, sharing his desire to turn his musical talents toward the service of the Lord.
Harmonize, who rose to fame with hits like “Kwa Ngwaru” and “Uno,” spoke to the congregation about his spiritual journey and the challenges he has faced in the entertainment industry. He expressed gratitude for the opportunity to seek redemption and indicated that this turning point would shape the direction of his life and career moving forward.
“I feel I have a new purpose,” Harmonize told churchgoers. “Music has always been my way to connect with people, but now I want to sing for the Lord and use my voice to inspire others in faith.”
Following the prayer and blessing from the church leaders, Harmonize vowed to dedicate a portion of his musical career to gospel music, saying he felt compelled to share messages of hope, healing, and praise through his songs. He added that he is currently working on gospel tracks and looks forward to releasing music that will uplift and encourage his fans spiritually.
Harmonize’s unexpected decision has stirred social media, with fans and fellow artists showing mixed reactions. Many have expressed admiration for his boldness and honesty, while some fans are surprised by the shift from his signature bongo flava style to a gospel focus. Nonetheless, many in the congregation expressed joy and support for his renewed commitment to faith, hoping his story will inspire others.
As Harmonize embarks on this new chapter, he remains one of Tanzania’s most beloved stars, and his journey toward faith may introduce his music to an entirely new audience. Whether he will fully transition to gospel or balance both genres remains to be seen, but Harmonize’s fans are eager to see how his faith-driven music will unfold.
