Some gospel musicians are hypocrites – Ronica Sings
Ghanaian musician based in Canada, Ronica Sings has opened up on how some gospel musicians put up characters that do not reflect who they claim to be.
Speaking to Doreen Avio in Daybreak Hitz, she said a lot of these gospel musicians portray there is unity among them but they do that to conceal their real divisive tendencies.
“You think that you know some of the gospel musicians [just like you’re saying] are being hypocrites about who they really are, because the togetherness that they portray out there is not actually what it seems when you get inside. I wouldn’t say all of them are like that. You know, some people have been so great to me, you know, connecting me to different places,” she added.
Ronica also expressed worry about why some established people in the gospel industry find it difficult to shine some light on up-and-coming ones.
“You expect that we’re all in the kingdom, so people who are already there will help put you on your platform. We’re all working for the kingdom of God, why can’t you expand it by promoting other people that have good work, good stuff too, you know, all come together and expand the kingdom of God?” she said.
Talking about her struggles as a gospel artiste who has a family, she noted: “It’s not easy, but I look to a lot of people that have been able to do it to push myself. Somebody like Diana Hamilton, she came from the UK and she’s been able to push herself. And I learned a lot from her that if she’s able to do it, I can also do it. It’s possible.”
Ronica‘s experiences highlight the importance of support and collaboration among artistes, as well as the need for authenticity and sincerity in their work.
