It seems it is a season for Gospel musicians to bemoan the judgemental attitude of many people toward secular musicians and make it clear that those who are doing Gospel music are not equally saints as perceived by the masses.
Controversial Gospel musician, Brother Sammy in a recent interview stated that; “Ghanaians are too judgmental and they always want to crucify secular musicians because they think secular musicians are winning souls for the devil. Some people see Gospel musicians especially myself as Jesus Christ but we are not because we can never be God. Doing Gospel music doesn’t make one a Jesus Christ.”
Ace Gospel superstar and songwriter Noble Nketsiah on the same topic, stated that the fact that people are making secular music doesn’t qualify them as bad or evil people, what matters or determines who someone is in God’s eyes is the heart.
He went on to add that, he doesn’t mind having secular musicians hop on his songs if he is in the same spirit as the person because, at the end of the day, his main aim is to impact lives positively.
“The whole thing is I have to be in the same spirit before I can work with you. And we have to agree on what we want to do. is a spirit. So if the heart is not good, we won’t obtain a good impact. But then, I always want to do a song that has a positive impact on people’s lives, as I’ve done over the years.”
Noble Nketsiah pointed out that not every gospel artiste is a good person. He said, “The fact that people do secular songs does not make them bad. It’s the heart that determines who you are. There are so many people doing gospel music with bad character or motive.”
He continued; “We are sitting with so many mad people in our various congregations. Until the person’s insanity comes out, you can tell. And we’re all not perfect beings. The reason we are in church is for God to work on us. You become perfect the day you die. That’s when God completes perfecting you.”
“Until we are dead, day in and day out, we encounter situations that make us fall into sins. Nobody is neither perfect nor holy. We are so many in the church. However, not everyone is correct,” he told Larry “Da Oldman,” he concluded.
The ‘Yesu Do’ singer said the above during an interview on Onua FM’s Anigye mmere entertainment and lifestyle show.
