ABOUT GOLD WATER (THE ALBUM)
‘‘Gold Water’’ is Obiwon’s third album, inspired by a combination of both ‘water’ as a symbol for cleansing and restoration and ‘Gold’ which symbolises glory and elevation. “Gold Water” has been nominated thrice for the forthcoming 2014 Crystal Awards for excellence in the gospel music industry.
‘Hail My King’, a hit track on Obiwon’s third and latest album ‘Gold Water’ features Frank Edwards, Eben, Kenny K’ore, Nikky Laoye and was directed by St. Imaculate. Musically the record is a HipHop song laced with local lingo and surprising styles and performances from the four ministers.
The song is produced by Phat E who has worked with Obiwon on ‘Testify’, ‘The F.a.t.h.e.r 2.0’ versions and Obi Mu O. Their undeniable synergy is once more felt here and as well as the entire album.

Obiora Obiwon announced a full-time gospel music ministry in 2008, following through in 2009 with his sophomore and first gospel album “The Rebirth”. Since then he has consistently impacted the events and gospel music scene with a new sound and “The Rebirth Band”.
The sophomore album became noted for the praise song “F.a.t.h.e.r” and mostly for producing the hit wedding anthem “Obi Mu O”.

He has currently been nominated for Best collaboration and Best Indigenous song for the Nigerian Gospel Music Awards 2013.
After a 4-year major release hiatus, Obiora Obiwon returned in 2013 with a techno-infused HipHop single entitled “Testify”.

Studio albums include: Overture (2006), The Rebirth (2008) and Gold Water (2013).
