Ghanaian gospel music icon Celestine Donkor has welcomed music lovers into the new year with a powerful new single, "Something New".

Although released just a week before the close of 2024, the song has quickly resonated with audiences, becoming a source of positive affirmation as people look ahead to the challenges and opportunities of the new year.

The song, a prophetic declaration, speaks to God's transformative power in bringing hope and joy to those who are struggling, downtrodden, or facing adversity.

Drawing inspiration from Isaiah 43:19, which states: "Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert," Celestine Donkor captures the essence of divine renewal in the song's message.

In a recent interview, Celestine expressed her excitement about the song's early success.

“We are grateful for the positive reception of ‘Something New.’ Just one week after its release, it's already generating significant streams across various online platforms, reaching music lovers around the globe,” she said.

Looking ahead to 2025, the gospel artist believes that the song is more than just music; it's a symbol of the bigger things God has in store for her ministry. “Just as the song prophesies, I believe God will use me as a vessel to do new and greater things in the coming year," she added.

Hundreds of music lovers who have been captivated by the song’s powerful message and composition have taken to various social media platforms to share their reactions.

I believe in God.” Joseph Pashal, who couldn’t contain his joy after hearing the track, added, “The song alone is making my day. It’s like the Most High has already started mine.”

Celestine Donkor’s new offering marks a departure in both rhythm and style from many of her previous hits. Despite this, it has a broad, universal appeal, resonating deeply with fans of good music across various genres.

“Something New” was produced by Joe Amoah of Springboard Studios, adding yet another layer of depth to this powerful musical project.
