Bassey was born in Lagos, Nigeria in 1981. He studied international relations and politics at the University of Lagos before moving to London to study politics thereafter. Conversely, he studied music at Middlesex University Summer School.
Nathaniel started his musical career in the church where he joined the Rhodes Orchestra and played the trumpet for two years. He was just an ordinary trumpeter until he composed a song at the visit to Stella Obasanjo, the late wife of former president Olusegun Obasanjo. In 2018, Bassey was one of the leading artistes in the Nigerian Christian gathering - The Experience. His debut album Elohim was recorded and mixed in Cape Town, South Africa in the year 2008. It has been described as a spiritual and artistic masterpiece with the hit track, "someone's knocking at the door," a soft-rock tune currently generating so much interest locally and internationally.
Nathaniel started the #HallelujahChallenge in June 2017, where he and other believers worship God for an hour, from 12:00 am to 1:00 am. He streams this event on his Instagram page and invites others to join him. In less than a month, the event had over 600,000 views. The #HallelujahChallenge for 2020 was held from 4 to 24 February. In 2021, the challenge held from 1 to 21 February.
May God bless his new age
