The founder of Mekra, Osofo Kojo Bentsir, has collaborated with Enam, Boggy Wenzday, and Kojo Vypa on his latest track, “Aware Pa.”
Known for integrating Spiritual Science into his music, Bentsir creates a rich, harmonious piece that resonates with listeners worldwide.
The song begins with the soulful melodies of Kojo Vypa, an award-winning rapper and songwriter, whose voice mingles seamlessly with Enam, celebrated for her Afro-Spiritual sound and recent performance at “Ghana’s Most Beautiful Pageant.”
They’re joined by Boggy Wenzday, an Afro-pop and highlife artist, and Bentsir himself, who weaves a spiritual message throughout, symbolizing a “good marriage” between love and spirituality.
The song encourages a harmonious blend of science and spirituality, guiding listeners to reconnect with their deeper selves—known in Akan tradition as the ‘Kra,’ or inner self.
This perspective suggests that combining these realms opens paths to both physical and divine aspects of existence, enriching one’s journey of self-discovery.
Spiritual Science, as Bentsir underscores, is an ancient African tradition that transcends modern science by focusing on personal growth and connection to the Divine.
Africa’s historical relationship with Spiritual Science, he argues, reveals a depth of knowledge about the cosmos and humanity, from insights like the Dogon people’s understanding of Sirius B, a distant star, long before telescopes.
The song’s symbolism draws from “Sankofa”—a Ghanaian concept meaning “go back and retrieve it”—urging listeners to reconnect with their heritage and ancestral wisdom.
“Aware Pa” challenges its audience to rediscover and embrace their roots, advocating for a return to ancient values and an authentic sense of self, often lost in modern belief systems.
Ultimately, “Aware Pa” is a call to remember and reclaim the wisdom of ancient African spirituality and break free from the chains of indoctrination.
It’s a poignant reminder: “It’s not taboo to go back for withhat you’ve forgotten.”
