OJ Blaq, celebrated for his distinct musical style and impactful stage performances, held a special place within the entertainment community.

Background on OJ Blaq

OJ Blaq, whose birth name is Andy Nii Akrashie, embarked on his musical journey in the early 2000s in Accra, Ghana.

His debut album, “The Blaq Mixtape,” emerged in 2006, thrusting him into the spotlight. Over subsequent years, he continued to bless the world with an array of singles, with his hit track “Chalewote” receiving notable acclaim.

“It’s not easy moving from one path to the other. Now I do Christian urban gospel music. My switch to Christian urban music was from my experience with kidney failure, so I decided to do gospel music with the same old rhythm style but different wording because the now Christians are different Christians.

“The new generation is not interested in the old style of Christianity but they are my target, they are the souls I want to win,” the “I’m Blessed” singer said.

In 2021, the artist faced the diagnosis of a kidney ailment, bravely battling the condition. While enduring dialysis treatment and awaiting a potential kidney transplant, he unfortunately passed away on Thursday, August 17, 2023.
