INSPIRING NEW AFRO-GOSPEL ANTHEM: BRUISED N BATTERED (BNB)

By Tolu Oke

Nigerian artist, Acer Chap (Dr. Chukwuebuka Ohanenye) is back with another powerful release, Bruised n Battered — a standout track from his latest EP, Milestones: New Horizons.

The song is a heartfelt testimony of resilience and faith, inspired by a life-threatening dog attack that left him with visible scars but an even stronger conviction in God. In this deeply personal Afro-Gospel record, Acer Chap pours his soul into every lyric, reinforcing his unshaken confidence in God’s plan — even in the face of adversity.

Beyond his own experience, Bruised n Battered (BnB) resonates with anyone who has ever faced pain, disappointment, or betrayal. Whether it’s emotional, physical, or spiritual hurt, the song speaks to that universal feeling of being broken yet still standing — of finding healing and strength through faith. Its catchy hook, uplifting rhythm, and thought-provoking verses remind listeners that God’s grace remains constant, even when life feels overwhelming.

Following the success of his previous EP, Prime Time Deluxe, Acer Chap continues to build momentum with his new project — Milestones: New Horizons (Part 1). Released on his birthday, March 20, 2025, the EP marks another defining chapter in his musical journey. The Part 2 of the Milestones series is expected to be released at a later date.

For Acer Chap, each milestone represents a step in both his artistic and spiritual evolution — and Bruised n Battered stands as a bold reminder that even in brokenness, purpose and praise can still shine through.
