Sensational Ghanaian Gospel Singer, Sandra Apperty, known in the music scene as Casandra, hints of her new single ‘Jabulani’ this week.
“Jabulani”, a Zulu Word which means “rejoice” is a song that talks about the goodness of God. It highlights the need to show gratitude to God no matter the situation we find ourselves in.
Most of her songs, she says, emanate from her life experiences and she believes music is a way of connecting people with such life-changing experiences to encourage humanity. This inspired her to come out with this new single ‘Jabulani’.
According to her, “‘Jabulani’ is my living testimony. Using melody and rhythm to preach the message is a good way of bringing hope to people who feel all is lost. No matter how bad we feel, someone has had it tougher so let’s share our stories to encourage each other.”
