Pastor Nana Yaw Boakye, popularly known as MOGmusic, a multi-award-winning gospel artist from Ghana has been accepted into the exclusive Grammy Academy membership.

He is now the first gospel musician from Ghana to be accepted into the school. The Grammy Board confirmed the well-known Ghanaian gospel musician's acceptance into the academy.

Speaking on his admission into the Grammy Academy membership, MOG expressed joy at the news saying it was a dream come true.

“This is the pinnacle every musician wishes to get to, I am glad to be putting Ghana on the map once again.”

He added that his acceptance into the academy has inspired him to work harder as a gospel musician.

He published his most recent album, "Koinonia Phase II," earlier this year, taking his music career to a whole new level.

The album builds on the previous Koinonia Phase I album, which was launched last year and blessed the industry worldwide with hit songs like Grace, Mala, Your Presence, Almighty God, Choral Praise, Glory to the Lamb and There’s Power.
