What could be easily described as one of the best in Salone gospel music industry was released early this month. A new, young and talented artist, Rosemarie Baryoh aka Roz B, made her debut entrance into the gospel music arena with an album titled “The Victory is Mine”. It is a 13-track album with messages of high spiritual depth which are woven together in diverse genres such as reggae, pop, calypso and jazz lyrics. Five of the tracks such as “U Nor Go Fail Me”, “Lef Am Go”, are composed in Krio while the rest are either in English or Krio mixed with English. As soon as the album was released, some of the tracks quickly occupied the top favourite verses used during praise and worship hours in many churches across Freetown. We had a brief chat with Roz B on her motive for producing this album. She explained that it has always been her dream to help the youths in particular to see that there is tremendous joy in serving the Lord. She is also very much concerned that gospel music has not been given the top place in Salone, unlike in some Western countries such as America. Therefore, she decided to send the word of God through the album to people by using the same popular lyrics which they enjoy at parties, the clubs and other places, with the hope that they may know the power of Jesus.
