Behind the Song: “Bamise” by Micheal Oyo feat. Osby Berry.

Bamise literally translates as “Helped to do it” . 

This is a song born out of gratitude, woven as both a  testimony and a prayer. In this live-recorded AfroGospel anthem, UK-based rising voice Michael Oyo features Osby Berry and together they harmoniously entwine  English and Yoruba into a seamless expression of thanksgiving that burns beyond continents and cultures. Every note solidifies the intimacy of a whispered prayer and the triumph of a resounding celebration. 

The sound is drenched in raw worship, alive with electrifying instrumentation, yet anchored in deep reverence.

With the richness of African rhythms and African instrumentals meeting the tenderness of English words of devotion, Bamise speaks of surrender -  yielding to God’s undiluted presence, His help, and His sustaining power. It is an anthem of life’s journey, where the Alpha and the Omega (Revelation 22:13) begins, carries, and completes every story.

Fundamentally, Bamise is not just another gospel song,  but a timeless offering of gratitude and a soul-stirring call to faith and breakthrough. It echoes the hunger of a generation longing for authenticity, hope, and revival; drawing hearts into deeper places of worship and remembrance of God’s goodness.

Bamise is set to transcend walls, playlists, and gatherings worldwide. It is not to be merely heard but to be felt, lived, and proclaimed.

ABOUT THE ARTISTS. 

London-born and American-raised, Michael Oyo is a singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist whose journey bridges continents and cultures. From his early beginnings with the Hillside 100 Voices in New Jersey; sharing the stage with Donnie McClurkin, J. Moss, Hezekiah Walker, and Patti LaBelle - to founding The Oyo Group in London, he has grown into a global worship leader and visionary, known for collaborations with CalledOut Music, Charles Dada, Sarah Téibo, Victoria Tunde, and Osby Berry himself.

Cincinnati native Osby Berry, celebrated as both American and Nigerian by heritage, mirrors this global reach with a voice that has captured hearts across nations. Rising to prominence after his viral rendition of “So Will I (100 Billion X)” with Cross Worship, he has since become known for his emotionally rich, spiritually resonant delivery - ministering through collaborations, live recordings, and powerful worship encounters.

Both artists share a passion for authenticity and faith-filled expression. Michael’s Yoruba-inspired release “Olorun”, birthed out of personal loss, and Osby’s heartfelt live anthems alike testify to resilience, surrender, and God’s sustaining presence. Each carries a sound rooted in worship yet expansive enough to touch global audiences from the USA to Europe, Africa, and beyond.

Influenced by gospel greats such as J. Moss, Tye Tribbett, Kirk Franklin, and Travis Greene, both Michael and Osby are more than artists; they are vessels of revival. Together and individually, their music blends reflection, joy, and passionate devotion; igniting hope, lifting hearts, and calling listeners deeper into the presence of God.
