Now retired from his former career, Emmanuel has thrown himself into his music, and released his debut album, I&#8217;m Happy&#8217;, back in 2012. Not satisfied with letting the grass grow under his feet, he has also published his autobiography.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Emmanuel shares his musical aspirations and medical knowledge via his large social media following, which is particularly strong on Twitter. His happy attitude to life is infectious and catchy, and working with his two sons, Emmanuel creates music from a variety of genres, including pop, reggae, soul, easy listening, ballads, R&amp;B and dance, with samples available on his website.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Watch the music video for &#8216;Thrills Of My Life Version 2&#8217; below, and stream and download the track <a href=\"https:\/\/ditto.fm\/thrills-of-my-life-version-2\">here<\/a>.
