Inspirational MOR mixed with Allan's African roots is what he's aiming for but it is unfortunate that he sometimes misses the mark and the results are indeed mixed. There are moments where the fusion works on songs like "We Need Love", "Hope" and "He Is My Saviour" where it is only the cheap production sounds that let things down. However the unlovely vocal warbling on "He Is Coming" and "What A God" are passionate but misguided and too often the listener is left reaching for the skip button. Well intentioned I'm sure but in the end too weak vocally and musically to pull in the listener.

Allan, you are doing really good for the Lord. You may meet trials and temptations on the way, but never be carried away. God will see you through. You are investing in the kingdom of God my brother, and for that, your great award is in heaven.

God blass you!

Regards to your children and your lovely wife though they do not know me.

Pamela Masoka.
