Gospel Artist Pitson Announces New Album and Joins Universal Music Group EA

The well-known Kenyan gospel singer Pitson, who is praised for classic songs like Uvumilivu and Lingala Ya Yesu, has signed a licensing agreement with Universal Music Group East Africa (UMG EA). 

Through this collaboration, his extensive music archive will be distributed and promoted by the label, increasing his visibility both domestically and internationally.

Pitson offered his appreciation, saying, “Being a part of the UMG family is a blessing.” This is just one more example of how God’s grace and love have led me on my journey in the music business. I make the decision to always walk with Him.

The award-winning musician will make his comeback after a break on March 7th with the release of his brand-new album, Brand New Me, under UMG EA. The project represents a new phase in his career after a time of introspection and development.

Pitson disclosed, “I took a step back to focus on personal development.” “Now, I’m thrilled to share songs that I’ve written over the years—songs that I hope will inspire hope and restore faith in my fans and fellow believers.”

Chinasa Udeala, General Manager of Universal Music Group East Africa, welcomed Pitson to the label and commended the singer’s influence on the gospel scene.

Pitson’s arrival to the Universal Music East Africa family is greatly appreciated. His songs have impacted countless lives with their potent messages of love, hope, and faith. We’re excited to collaborate with him to showcase his amazing talent and advance his artistic abilities.

Pitson’s return is expected to be a momentous occasion for the Kenyan gospel music scene, as he is working on a new album and has the support of a large label.
