There are collaborations that make sense, and then there are those that feel divinely orchestrated. Infinity, the new single from gospel powerhouse Tim Godfrey and Afrobeats luminary Oxlade, is firmly the latter. A radiant, spirit-charged anthem that collapses the boundaries between worship and wonder, between the sacred and the soulful.
Opening with the line “Me I never see wetin God cannot do, and I go worship your name till infinity,” the track sets the tone for what unfolds: a sweeping declaration of faith wrapped in lush, modern production. Where Godfrey’s voice anchors the track in reverence, Oxlade’s honeyed tone lifts it heavenward, threading sincerity through every note and channeling the language of praise through the rhythm of Afrobeats.
Gospel music in Nigeria has been steadily reinventing itself, growing more fluid and expansive by the year. Artists like Tim Godfrey have long led this evolution, pushing gospel beyond the pews and into the pulse of everyday life. Infinity takes that mission further. Its production gleams – a tapestry of bright percussion, warm basslines, and layered harmonies that pulse with life. It’s a song for sanctuary, whether that may be in a house of worship, or in one’s place of comfort.
Infinity also serves as a powerful prelude to Tim Godfrey’s forthcoming album, No Label – a project that, by its very title, promises to expand the language of gospel music even further. It follows a string of recent triumphs including Cho Cho Cho and Praise The Lord, that showcase Godfrey’s ability to innovate without losing sight of his message.
As the convener of the Fearless Gospel Concert, Godfrey has long understood that gospel music is not confined by geography or genre. His stage has hosted legends like Kirk Franklin, Marvin Sapp, Travis Greene, and Israel Houghton – proof of a vision that spans continents. With Infinity, he extends that bridge again, crafting a moment that speaks to believers and dreamers alike.
It is rare for a song to make you want to raise your hands and move your feet at the same time. Infinity does just that. It is a praise song with a pulse, the sound of two artists meeting at the intersection of conviction and creativity.
