Popularly known gospel singer, Samsong in a recent interview
with daily independent talked about his singing career, issues relating
gospel artistes and why he is into only gospel music.
The Delta state born singer resigned from being a banker to embrace full-time music.
According
to him, he has no regrets going into gospel music. "Music for me has
been interesting, particularly as a gospel musician. The passion to do
things fro God has kept me going as a gospel artiste.
"Before you can become a gospel artiste, you first and foremost have to be a Christian. It is not just a music thing, it is a lifestyle thing. To be a gospel artiste, you must be born again and must be living the life of the gospel. You can’t be a gospel artiste and not be born again, it is contradictory and that is double-standard," he said.
