It’s been quite a long since she last released a song but gospel ‘songbird’ Gaby Kamanzi, recently broke the silence when she released her new single, dubbed “Emmanuel,” a Christmas song. 

The track that has over 31,000 views and more than 1700 likes so far, on her YouTube channel since it was premiered on December 2020, has left her fans mesmerized. Some of them even remarked that the song has actually blessed them, while others appreciated the message behind the song. Others just kept encouraging her to keep on producing good music.

In an interview with the vocalist, the singer made it clear that “Emmanuel” is her comeback song because, since last year, her wish was to release a number of songs. However, her plan was a bit ruined as this year she was anticipating organizing a concert, and at least release three songs, but then Covid-19 ensued.

The songstress said that what inspired the writing of her new song, was to usher people to worship and praise Jesus, as she reflected on Matthew 1: 23 that says, “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Emmanuel” (which means “God with us”).

Kamanzi noted, “Now that we have God in our lives, there’s no need to worry, even if we encounter difficult glitches, or this pandemic, we have God with us, in us, surrounding us, which is why we ought to trust Him. Let’s welcome Him again to reign in our lives, this Christmas period.”

Before “Emmanuel”, the songster had last unveiled a song entitled, “Mu Mutima” with singer, Holy Keane, in February 2020. 

Unfortunately, she couldn’t promote the song as planned because shortly after it was released, Rwanda announced a total lockdown. Kamanzi is contemplating on releasing her second album next year, which the song “Emmanuel”, will be a part of. It will also include some of her already released songs like, “Arankunda”, “Nzahora Nshima”, “Ewe Mungu”, “Mu Mutima”, “Hejuru”, among others.

The songbird has also decided to use her YouTube channel to offer vocal training to anyone yearning to learn how to sing.  She has no doubt that by God’s grace, next year she will start organizing meetings with people physically to further her vocal lessons.

In July, Kamanzi started a 15-minute live worship encounter on her YouTube channel. She said, her pianist and her, flow in worship and prayer as the Holy Spirit guides them. So far, the public has embraced the worship session where they join in to worship the Lord together with her.
