Ghanaian gospel musician, Phil Evans Akesse Brempong, has opened up about his past life experiences before becoming a gospel artiste.

In an interview with Irene Adubea Aning on the Career Trail TV program, the musician disclosed that he used to woo girls with RnB songs during his senior high school years.

He recounted owning a book filled with Westlife's songs and other RnB tunes, which he learned and sang for the girls.

"I started singing for the girls in SHS and they fell for it. To get to be friends with the girls, I will use the music, singing a lot of RnB songs. There used to be a small book which contained all the Westlife songs including RnB songs. So you buy the cassette, you buy the book and you go and sing for the girls. It was a thing,’ he narrated.

He highlighted that this was his previous way of living until he arrived at the university, where he discovered that becoming a gospel musician was his true calling in life.

According to him, his transformation occurred when he was asked to lead the choir after accompanying a friend to a church meeting.

"Gideon dragged me to one of their meetings one day. The music director was teaching a song and he was fumbling with it. So he went to tell the music director that, the guy sitting there, the first-year guy is really good. He can teach this song. The guy called me up to help him teach it. I taught the song in 15 minutes. He was like, wow, this guy is good," he recalled.

Following this incident, he stated that he had the opportunity to direct the PENSA choir and other gospel programs at the university.

"I started directing the PENSA choir, right from the first day I went to rehearsal until I left KNUST. I was also part of the recording team for the gospel explosion and the lead vocal for the gospel explosion. I was involved in the mass choir as well," he further submitted.

After university, he was convinced that gospel music was a divine calling from God, which he embraced.
