The face of Namibian gospelPaving international paths for Namibian gospel artists Starting from the bottom and now she's here... Maranatha Goroh shares her musical journey with tjil. Growing up in a Christian household with her father a pastor, one would assume that she didn't have the option of pursuing any other career or genre, but Maranatha Goroh says this was her calling and wouldn't have it any other way. The damsel with a golden voice has been doing the most with her career which only started in 2015 by scooping awards, getting gigs out of Namibia as far as Dubai, and releasing her album. Indeed she is the face of Namibian gospel. The trick, according to Maranatha, is for one to live unapologetically themselves. “umhlobo onguye!” yangxola indlulamthi, yatsho yavuka impungutye. “ndiyakubulela ngokucula kwakho kuba ndibethwe ndamnyama nazuba.” “Abantu abatsha abamnyama, abasebenzayo, bagrogrisa abaphathi babo abamhlophe ngeEFF xa begagana nocalucalulo. Ngenxa yoku ndilala obehlayo, kuba ndibaxhobisile abantsundu ngekrele abangalisebenzisa xa begagana nocalucalulo. Ezi zezinye zeenzuzo esizifumeneyo njengombutho kule minyaka isibhozo idlulileyo,” kutsho uMalema.
