Gospel singer Lilian Nneji’s newly released 17-track album, Highly Favored, is a musical celebration of God’s faithfulness, mercy and unfailing love.

Designed to appeal to listeners across different generations, the album brings together traditional gospel expressions, contemporary sounds, energetic praise and reflective worship

The work features some of Nneji’s popular songs, including Omeriwo Omeriwo Reprise and If E Reach Your Turn, alongside 15 other tracks that explore themes of thanksgiving, divine mercy, gratitude and confidence in God’s promises.

Other songs in the album include Do For You, Wonderful, Mercy, I’m Active, Eze Mu O, Grateful, Elohim, E Get Why, Daalu, Ntughari, Odogwu N’agha, LNG Praise Medley, Mi O Le Gbagbe, Jesus Ke and Onwere Ihe Omere Mụ.

A major attraction of the album is its blend of diverse musical styles, bringing together familiar traditional praise rhythms and contemporary gospel sounds to create an experience that cuts across age groups.

While some tracks evoke the traditional praise expressions cherished by older gospel music lovers, others feature vibrant rhythms and contemporary arrangements expected to resonate with younger audiences.

With her distinctive energetic delivery, powerful vocals and passionate approach to worship, Nneji uses the work to reinforce her longstanding message of gratitude, faith and total dependence on God.

The release represents another milestone in the musical journey of the gospel minister, whose songs, particularly those rooted in Igbo praise traditions, have continued to gain acceptance among gospel music audiences in Nigeria and beyond.

Popularly known as Energy, Odogwu and Praise Machine, Nneji is recognised for her electrifying stage performances and ability to lead congregations in spirited praise and worship.

Beyond her recording career, Nneji serves as one of the lead singers in the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) National Mass Choir. She is also an Assistant Pastor and has ministered at gospel concerts and worship gatherings in Nigeria and internationally. Her contributions to gospel music have earned her several awards and recognitions.
