Gospel artist Cedar OTL releases “Motive & Thoughts“.
Motive & Thoughts is a very insightful song. The song talks about what life can present at different stages but what matters the most is how we react or respond as believers.
Yunusa Ogoh (born April 2, 1989) in Jos, Plateau state to Nigerian parents from Benue State, eponymously known as Cedar OTL (Cedar of The Lord) is an Abuja-based Urban contemporary gospel rap artist and composer.
Growing up for Cedar OTL was quite eventful. He grew up listening to a variety of choice music from his parents’ favorite songs to that of his siblings, cutting across different genres with hip Hop as his favorite. He later graduated from the University of Abuja. His music addresses such life issues as faith, peer pressure, and discouragement.
In 2012, Cedar OTL dropped his first gospel single titled ‘I’m Coming featuring Dharmie. He was a member of YWAP’s Soulflame and this experience bolstered his embrace of gospel rap music. The following year, he released an underground EP with songs like ‘My Days, Don’t Stop, Unique and Classic‘.
Cedar has worked on several other projects since then. He is also associated with other gospel artists like Prosper Ochimana.
