The New Chapter album by award-winning events promoter, and executive music producer Jagonzy is finally available on all digital streaming platforms — it released on June 25, 2021 and can be sampled and purchased in the following link: https://li.sten.to/TheNewChapter.
Jagonzy who is known privately as Julian Asiedu said on his Facebook page that the album which has been a massive community project in the making for him “features 50 dope artists, 9 wicked producers and 5 deadly video directors drops…” He said he knows it has been a long time coming, but gave thanks to the fans for their support and patience.
Birthing ‘The New Chapter’ over the years
Jagonzy said to TheAfricanDream.net that “entertainment is one thing I have always been passionate about. As a child growing up in Ghana, I saw my mum and dad playing Ghanaian music greats like Daddy Lumba and Kojo Antwi songs in our home. Anytime I heard those songs, I danced and imitated them. This where my love story began with the Ghana entertainment scene. When I entered America, my love for entertainment soared. I never followed trends but created my own paths throughout my decade in the music industry.“
Last year Jagonzy envisioned celebrating a decade in the entertainment industry which got him thinking. Prior to that he had organized shows, put smiles on faces, promoted so many artistes, sold out concerts and events, and had dope parties through his untouchable international entertainment franchise known as ‘Shutdown‘ both locally and internationally.
In the thought process he told TheAfricanDream.net that “I had a deep thought about it and had a dream that prompted me to go to Ghana my Motherland and record with these amazing artistes on the album to celebrate a decade in the entertainment industry. On June 1, I announced my album. And on the 23rd of this month, I again announced my first single featuring the amazing cats from Agona Swedru, to open the floodgates to the release of The New Chapter album.”
Wrapping up with TheAfricanDream.net, Jagonzy announced: “Today, I present to you my debut album. An album that connects me and my talents to the real world. With these amazing souls we were able to tell our stories through music. Let’s celebrate a decade in the industry together. This is the NEW CHAPTER.“
