Nanto Peetah is a Malawian gospel reggae-dancehall artist from Hot Hood, who is currently studying for a Bachelor in Divinity at Zomba Theological College but based in Ntcheu pa boma but his home village is Chikwawa North.
He started doing music at approximately 10 years old while he was in primary school with his fellow Hot Hood (TD Rudoh and Lkhiddoh), but did not begin his music ministry until 2018. That’s the year he switched from secular to gospel and what he describes as pure love songs. Fast forward to four years later – 2022 – and Nanto finds himself working on his first ever full-length studio album (Ministry album).
The project, which will be called Ministry, was inspired by Romans 12. It will feature international reggae-dancehall lyricist Karamanti, who hails from, and is based in Jamaica. Additionally, Nanto has invited African artists Mady P (Don Gogo), Princi Musiq, Ababa Surgent and Jah Flavour to be a part of the LP. It is being produced by HKP.
Nanto Peetah was influenced by late Malawian reggae-dancehall megastar Mafunyeta a.k.a King Shaka, Mady P and Gospo San. What separates him from his peers is that he believes that his talent should not be used for entertainment only, but for the glory of God and His kingdom. This is also why he decided to name his upcoming album Ministry.
Apart from the Hot Hood the artist also run his own Crew so called Nyabinghi
Cabinet. The artist nowadays loves listening to fellow Gospel reggae Dancehall artist by the name Sir creedy of Zion music and also gospel hip-hop artist like Suffix.
