His real name is Godfrey Nzaramba but he is known as Godfrey Legend in worship and praise songs and in the journalism related to Religion where he worked for RC Nyagatare. After spending time singing with The Ben in high school, it ended up getting him into music for real.
The song "Dont Cry" in English was released on Saturday, January 13, 2024, and he said he dedicated it to his son Joshua. It is after 7 years without his art going out. After See Music [Cyuzuzo Patrick], Godfrey Legend is another Rwanda’s Gospel artist who sing in English only.
After releasing "Don’t Cry", Godfrey Legend told Paradise that "My song is dedicated to my firstborn Joshua, it means I started the year with a new song in my heart; I think that word is found in the Holy Bible in the book of Psalms it says ’Sing to the Lord a new song with the harp and the harp.’"
He composed this song to comfort people who have spiritual problems and are losing their faith due to many sins they have committed. He tells them that God has the ability to forgive their sins that they commit every day. It is based on the words in the book of Isaiah 40:1-2, verse 1: "Comfort my people, comfort them." This is what your God says."
This singer who likes quiet songs from a long time ago says that Jesus is the one who gives joy in the heart because money and other valuable things that people spend in order to live are of no use to them. They don’t have the same comfort in their hearts as they do from Jesus.
While studying in high school in Kayonza District at Groupe Scolaire de Gahini where he studied with Mugisha Benjamin known as The Ben, he also loved quiet songs that spoke of God.
Meet Godfrey Legend, another Rwanda’s Gospel artist who sing in English only
At that time, he and The Ben lived in the same main room, sometimes singing songs of worship and praise to God. According to him, The Ben is the one who taught him to play music instruments and has been inspired him from singing his own songs. He said: "because when we were studying I took away the ’inspiration’ related to worship music."
He said that the fact that The Ben has a lot of emotions and cries in the church and in the public is a force from God reminding him that he should do for him, especially that The Ben started from the Gospel even he is known in the secular. He said: "It’s a calling that’s calling for him. The position he’s in is not the one he’s supposed to be in." As same as this, The Ben himself said that he wanted to serve God.
Godfrey says that he and The Ben had a great time serving God together. Their friendship reached far that Godfrey gave him a cow. After wishing him to have a new and happy life in his home with Pamela, he concluded by saying that serving Jesus nothing good than that and therefore he wishes his friend The Ben to return to the service of God.
Godfrey says that this is the time to serve God, so this year he plans to express it in songs of worship and praise to God that he will release in English, as for Don’t Cry. Don’t Cry was produced by Producer Santana Souce and plans to work with him on many more projects. Its video is also about to be released.
