Veteran Ghanaian gospel singer, Grace Ashy has expressed sentiments regarding the tagging of secular artists as people of the devil simply because their music does not preach the gospel.
Speaking in an interview, Grace said she sees no difference in the different genres of music and whichever one an individual decides to do, depends on his or her strength.
She said: “We are working under one umbrella just that our ways differ a little. Depending on where one feels comfortable in his or her career, he or she can either choose to do gospel or secular music.”
“Apart from that, I see no difference between artists doing the two genres so when we meet each other, we act warmly towards each other because we are one people. I always want people to understand that these two genres are the same and the secular acts are not of the devil after all that is their work.
“Someone may not be successful when he or she does gospel music but will be successful when they do secular music. So we are of good terms with these secular acts. They sing our songs and we sing theirs too,” she concluded.
