(Lagos, Nigeria) – Obiora Obiwon returns with “Conqueror”, his first single after a brief hiatus. Conqueror is an eclectic blend of pop, soul, afro and hiphop over a salvation theme.
Sharing the inspiration behind the song. Obiora Obiwon reflects on our need for a ‘Champ’.
“The melody for ‘Conqueror’ came to me in a dream while in a hospital battling for my life after a ruptured appendix. It became the sign of my victory. I fully recovered, went home and wrote this song over a period time to capture the essence of my faith and the experience. Conqueror is a reminder that life is too big and mysterious for any of us to win all by ourselves and in our own strength. We all need a champ. The Champion of the Universe. Conqueror.”
