Recap of an interview with Gahzahr: New single Tosan in view.

Every time I see or get a link of this man's song,  I say "Wow! I like this one better than the last one." Yes I thought Jingina was the peak but he blew my mind with #Tosan. He made me happy I am a woman. This song will help every lady,  girl, woman,  mother,  grandma, sister, aunty and every other office you can claim as a female. It gives you a sense of worth and high esteem. Many still don't know him, but I can solve that while I look forward to having another interview in this updated state of his life. Keep moving on brother.
Here is a recap of it,  read and enjoy.

You are welcome to today’s edition on Radiant Stars with Pheobe, I am your host Pheobe Omiwole. It’s always interesting to bring to you one among the many stars and today the spot light is on a man I respect so much, he is a gospel rap minister, I prefer to call him that rather than artiste. Mr Gahzahr, can you please introduce yourself?

My names are Adamu Danladi Gaza but as an artiste I prefer it spelt Gahzahr. An indigene of the FCT, a graduate of sociology from Nasarawa state university, a patriot, songwriter and artiste.

Common now! Now that’s an interesting profile. A patriot huh! So tell us, when did it all start? The rap music I mean.

Uhmm… It started way back in secondary school, year 2005 to be precise.

Wow! So have you always been into gospel rap from the beginning?

Nah! Started with secular rap due to the influences around me at the time and did that until 2011.

Hmm! So what caused the change in 2011. You know rap as a genre of music is just gaining preeminence in gospel music here in Nigeria. I was never the rap fan but then the likes of you changed my opinion about rap. Now back to the question, what caused the change of heart in 2011?

It was at Word Warring Youth Network’s booth camp I realized I could be more than just another secular rapper seeking fame and fortune but a voice via the gifting of rap and music which is my area of strength. It was precisely during a prayer session it hit me and I knew I had gotten to a turning point and ever since, his grace has sustained me.

Wow! Glory to God! I believe another camp meeting is by the corner, you will do well if you are in keffi and its environs to be in this year’s booth camp coming up later this month. So do you have an album yet?

Not yet! But I released a mixtape earlier this year. Looking forward to working on an album as a lot of people thinks its due but it just doesn’t feel right yet, when the time comes I’d know. Meanwhile I might do an EP before the year runs out.

Wow! I believe you. I noticed you love what you do and you are diligent about it. I must say I love your rap, the lyrics are deep and the beats are cool, so I am looking forward to whatever you are cooking up. I saw a picture of you sipping from a wooden cup with a hoe on your shoulder, now what does that tell us, another song is warming up to be released right? (Tosan has been released, it's a must hear for everyone)

Lol! Yea.. The concept came from Martins Owa Mathias, one of the best graphic designers I know and its for a new single set to be released on my birthday 9th of august. There’s a lot around this really, its a rebirth for me and a lot of people are gonna be surprised at the outcome, its not the usual Gazahr at all, maybe we need to discuss the song alone after it drops, a lot of mystery surrounds it.

Wow! Now you are whetting my appetite and yes I will be glad to discuss the song. I should also say Happy birthday in advance, may this rebirth mark a new beginning for you. So Gazahr, can you tell me some of the people who has impacted your life. Those you consider role models?

I always say Christ is my role model but notable people who have impacted my life include Pst. Jessy Danladi(The CityHill Church), Spokesman and Mike Zukerberg. I wanna be a CEO before I’m 30, retire at 40 and tour the world. Lol.

Wow! Great dreams you have there and trust me I believe you can achieve it because you are not a slothful man and you Know your God. So asides rap and music what does Gahzarh do, you just talked about being a CEO. So what other aspect of you do we look out for?

How about we keep that wrapped up and let it unfold over time, but musically this is just a starting phase for me I have greater plans with God helping me.

Hmm! I believe you will be a welcome face on this platform because I know indeed that you will do great things that the world will marvel at. So tell me, where do you see yourself musically in five years time?

Amen! Five years is a long time and I see an international voice, a mentor, endorsements and a voice in the industry to reckon with because I think gospel music has lagged behind way too long, we need to take it further.

Yes sir! We really need to and we will by God’s grace. So Gazahr is a graduate and desires to be a CEO at 30, and retire at 40. I think that’s an awesome plan but then I was wondering where the woman fits into these awesome plan. Now let’s go personal, is Mr Gahzahr in a relationship? I am sure I am not the only curious one here. Lolz.

Hahahahaha.. Oh my God! I wish you didn’t go there. This is where I wish I could play showbiz but then I’d be lying, so yes I am.

Really! Awesome. Like this is amazing. Well since I know I will be having you around at a later date, lets not spill out her identity yet but we can do two aside, trust me no one will hear it from me. Ladies am sorry but there is no vacancy here, check out the next brother.
Gazahr there are a lot of youths out there with talents but they seem confused or waiting for a huge opportunity before they take a step. What’s your advice for them?

If I did that I know I wouldn’t be having this interview with you right now. Am not where I want to be but am not where I used to be. So I urge every youth out there to take the bull by the horn, no one is gonna come fulfill your dreams for you, until you set it in motion your helpers won’t locate you, so get up and do something today, the sky is our starting point.

Common now! I guess if I did that, I might not be interviewing you in the first place. Youths wake up and start living your dreams.

True! Its applicable to every one.

It has been an awesome time with Gahzahr on Radiant Stars with Pheobe. He will be back to discuss the single that is dropping as his birthday gift to us. I am anticipating it, so keep your fingers crossed. Gahzahr thank you for your time.

Thank you so much for having me. I’m honored.

I believe this is just the beginning of great things in your life in Jesus name. To my able readers thank you for staying with me till the end, expect Gahzahr back with the song you won’t forget in a hurry(Now I said that knowing he won't fall my hand. Today is here for us to enjoy.) I remain my humble self Radiant Pheobe. Till I come your way next time with another exciting edition of Radiant Stars with Pheobe, remain blessed.
