Renowned gospel powerhouse Tim Godfrey returns with a visionary and groundbreaking body of work titled No Label, a bold musical statement that pushes boundaries and redefines the landscape of contemporary gospel music. Scheduled for a worldwide release on October 31st, No Label is far more than just an album—it is a movement, a declaration of faith without limits, and a fearless expression of creativity that speaks to a generation hungry for authenticity, freedom, and truth.
At its core, No Label confronts and dismantles the long-held idea that gospel music must exist within rigid boundaries or conform to a specific sound. Tim Godfrey boldly asserts that worship and praise are not confined to one genre, rhythm, or cultural expression. Instead, the album embodies his deep conviction that faith can thrive on any beat and that the message of Christ can be communicated powerfully through diverse musical styles. By fusing the spiritual depth of worship with the infectious energy of Afrobeats and contemporary sounds, Godfrey creates a sonic experience that resonates not only with believers but also with a broader global audience.
Every track on No Label reflects Tim Godfrey’s passion for making God’s presence accessible beyond traditional church walls. The album is rich with messages of gratitude, trust, praise, and unwavering belief in God’s faithfulness. Songs such as the spirit-charged “Cho Cho Cho” and the celebratory anthem “Praise The Lord” invite listeners into moments of joy, thanksgiving, and exuberant worship. One of the standout tracks, featuring Afrobeats sensation Oxlade, opens with the memorable line, “Me I never see wetin God cannot do…”—a simple yet profound declaration that captures the heart of the entire project: a testimony of God’s limitless power and unchanging nature.
The album also features dynamic collaborations with popular Afrobeats artists Oxlade and Spyro, further emphasizing Tim Godfrey’s vision of uniting faith and culture. These collaborations are not mere musical experiments; they are intentional partnerships that demonstrate how gospel truth can coexist seamlessly with contemporary expressions of sound. By welcoming artists from the mainstream space into this project, Godfrey bridges worlds, creating music that feels both spiritually grounded and culturally relevant.
Adding another compelling layer to No Label is the masterful contribution of acclaimed producer Masterkraft. His production expertise injects a fresh groove into Tim Godfrey’s gospel sound, resulting in a perfect balance between reverence and rhythm. Masterkraft’s touch ensures that the album remains deeply faith-driven while also being rhythmically vibrant and sonically appealing to a diverse audience. The synergy between worship and Afrobeats is effortless, making the album both reflective and celebratory.
Tim Godfrey’s influence extends far beyond the studio. As the convener of the renowned Fearless Gospel Concert, he has spent years reshaping the narrative of gospel music across Africa and beyond. The concert has hosted international gospel icons such as Kirk Franklin, Travis Greene, Marvin Sapp, Israel Houghton, and JJ Hairston, solidifying Godfrey’s role as a bridge-builder in global gospel ministry. With No Label, he expands this legacy even further, inviting the world into a new era where worship meets world sound, and the message of Christ is communicated through the universal language of rhythm and melody.
A globally celebrated Nigerian gospel artist, songwriter, and worship leader, Tim Godfrey rose to international prominence with the 2018 hit “Nara” featuring Travis Greene, a song that has garnered over 111 million views on YouTube and continues to impact lives worldwide. He has since delivered other powerful collaborations such as “Toya” with Israel Houghton and “Onaga” with JJ Hairston. A regular performer at The Experience concert since 2016, Tim Godfrey’s artistry and ministry have earned him multiple awards, including recognitions from the Africa Gospel Awards, Africa Gospel and Media Awards, and NEA Awards USA.
