Gospel singer Kenny Saint Brown shared her experiences and obstacles while promoting Afro-gospel music in Nigeria.
Brown noted that the church failed to recognize her intention to use the platform to convert unbelievers, citing US gospel singer Kirk Franklin’s similar struggles.
“The only problem I had was the church accepting it,” Brown said. “Kirk Franklin faced the same issue with his album Storm. They were too traditional and religious.”
Brown highlighted that the secular artists she worked with had church backgrounds:
“Terry G was Benita Okojie’s drummer, and MI, Dagrin – their lyrics were prayerful. I was tapping into their audience.”
Brown referenced the Bible, emphasizing the importance of reaching lost souls:
“Go and be my witness… to the uttermost part of the earth. It doesn’t mean Australia; it means reaching lost souls.”
