My Possible song not linked to NPP’s It is Possible slogan –Philipa Baafi

Gospel sensation Philipa Baafi is pushing back strongly against claims that her latest single, Possible, was composed to bolster the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) campaign for the upcoming general elections.

The singer insists her song is inspired by faith, not politics—dismissing the claims as pure coincidence!

In 2008, Philipa found herself at the heart of a political whirlwind with her hit Go High—which became the unofficial campaign anthem for NPP. This time, her new single Possible has sparked speculation, with its title eerily aligning with the party’s campaign slogan It Is Possible.

Her recent song performance at a NPP event in Dansoman, Accra, on Monday, August 26, has only fueled the fire, deepening the conspiracy theories surrounding her.

Speaking with Graphic Showbiz, the I Go Dance hitmaker firmly denied any political motives, asserting that the song is a spiritual message of faith, inspired by the Bible, and not connected to NPP’s slogan.

“It’s not a political song. It is a declaration and a reminder that with God, anything is possible. I got the inspiration from the Bible, and I’m surprised people are making it political. I’m a gospel musician, and my focus is on spreading God’s message,” she declared, addressing the swirling controversy.

“Possible is a reference to the Bible verse “with God, all things are possible” and is meant to encourage listeners to trust in God’s power and not to promote a political agenda.”

The buzz surrounding Possible has been amplified by the timing of its release—just four months before the general elections. Critics have drawn parallels between the song and the NPP’s campaign slogan, suggesting a deliberate alignment.

However, Baafi dismisses these claims as mere coincidence. “I don’t think I owe anybody an explanation, but I want to put it on record that Possible was written long before NPP adopted their campaign slogan.

“It’s part of an album of songs I’ve been releasing as singles since 2020. It was even there before I came out with Eda Ho Pefee early this year.

“Besides, Possible has even gained attention on social media, with some users relating it to a recent post by Liverpool Football Club, where their coach said “nothing is impossible” so they are words in the dictionary that everyone can use and not the preserve of anyone,” she stated.
