Award-winning gospel artist, Bro Philemon, who hails from Takoradi and is currently based in China, has made a much-anticipated return to the gospel music scene after a period of relative silence.
Renowned for his compelling voice and deeply spiritual songs, Bro Philemon had many fans curious about his absence and whether he had left music altogether.
Recent rumors within the gospel community have suggested that he has been working behind the scenes with several international artists from countries like the USA, UK, and the Philippines. However, these speculations have gone unconfirmed, leaving his supporters questioning his engagement in music and ministry.
Real name Ishmael Philemon Ackon, Bro Philemon was notably one of the first Ghanaian gospel musicians to receive recognition at the All Africa Music Awards (AFRIMA) in Nigeria in 2014.
He has also received accolades at notable events such as the Africa Gospel Music Awards UK in 2014 and the Shine Awards in 2018, both recognizing him as an influential artist residing abroad.
In a recent statement, Bro Philemon reassured his fans of his unwavering commitment to his calling and expressed excitement about returning to music with renewed vigor.
With a focus on delivering powerful, anointed music, he is gearing up to bless listeners with new projects that promise greater depth and global impact.
“I’ve been immersed in my business endeavors, which understandably kept me away from the music scene,” Bro Philemon shared. “But now, I’m back, and I am excited to share beautiful, soul-nourishing music with everyone.”
Outside of his musical career, Bro Philemon successfully manages multiple business ventures, including P&D MPC HK CO., LTD. in Hong Kong and Philemon’s Supply Management SZ Co. Limited in Shenzhen, China. These endeavors, while taking some of his time, have also inspired his creative process.
His portfolio also boasts high-end projects in the Philippines, such as Philemon’s Luxe-Suites, an upscale Airbnb, Wing’s Haven Restaurant Inc., an exquisite dining venue, and Bella Vida Beauty Studio & Spa Inc., a luxury wellness center.
His previous hits include songs like “It Is Well,” “All The Glory,” “Me Da W’ase” (Thank You), “Sweetest Name” featuring the legendary Mrs. Amy Newman, and “Fill Me Up.”
In his concluding thoughts, he emphasized, “It’s not about doing everything at once, but doing everything with purpose.” Bro Philemon’s comeback will embody this principle—spirit-led, professionally managed, and globally inspired.
