Gaise Baba opens his 13-track album God Is Cooking with “Lenu (Intro),” a purposeful statement built around faith and spoken word. The Nigerian Afro-gospel pioneer released the project through 464 Projects and ONErpm, and this short introduction sets the spiritual tone for everything that follows. Yoruba declarations mix with English and Pidgin lines, so the sound feels culturally grounded yet universally accessible.
This track sits at the start of a significant run for the artist. His sophomore album A Decade After arrived in 2025, and he has kept momentum with singles like “Want to Grow” and “No Turning Back II.” “Lenu (Intro)” therefore arrives as the gateway to a fuller body of work, not just a standalone piece. It frames the mouth and tongue as instruments for declaring God’s counsel, which prepares listeners for themes of surrender, spiritual growth, and service throughout the album.
The choice to lead with an intro rather than a full song feels deliberate. It gives the project a clear entry point, one that centres faith before the groove takes over. Have you heard Gaise Baba – “Lenu (Intro)” yet? Share your thoughts below.
