Nigerian gospel singer, songwriter, producer, and Rocktown Records founder Frank Edwards has released a soul-stirring new single titled “Elevate,” and it sits comfortably within the winning formula he has refined over two decades of ministry music.
What makes “Elevate” interesting is the timing. Before this release, Frank Edwards had already dropped a seven-track project titled “Heart of Worship” in 2026, meaning this song arrives in the middle of one of his most active creative seasons in recent years. Rather than slowing down between projects, he keeps going – and that consistency has always been one of the defining features of his ministry.
The song itself is self-produced, which matters because Frank Edwards behind the boards means the sound reflects exactly what he intended without compromise. He wrote it, produced it, and ministers it — there are no layers between the artist and the message. That kind of ownership shows up in how the record feels. It does not sound assembled. It sounds personal.
Lyrically, “Elevate” blends English and Igbo in the way Frank Edwards has always done best. The Igbo lines – declarations of gratitude for things only God could do – sit naturally alongside the English chorus rather than feeling translated or forced. That bilingual approach has always been one of the reasons his music resonates beyond purely English-speaking church audiences across Nigeria and the diaspora.
“Elevate” is already sitting at number one on the Xclusive charts, ahead of both Nasty C and Tellaman. For anyone still sleeping on Frank Edwards in 2026, that number alone should settle the conversation.
