Gospel artistes wants to make money like secular singers – Spyro

Singer Spyro has sparked controversy by stating that many gospel artists are primarily motivated by financial gain, blurring the lines between them and secular musicians.

In a fresh interview on Hip TV’s Trending, hosted by Pascal, Spyro claimed that gospel artists are “in the business to make money” just like Afrobeats artists.

He also praised Tems as a role model for young female artists, highlighting her success while maintaining decency in an industry where women often face pressure to compromise their values.

Spyro expressed admiration for Tems’ ability to navigate the industry with integrity, saying she should be an inspiration to young women everywhere.

He said:

“The people that claim to be gospel artists or gospel ministers are just artists -they are in the business to make money just like us in the Afrobeats industry.”

“There is a lot of pressure on female artists to do crazy things. Tems is holding it down decently yet she is one of the biggest [female artists] in the world right now. She is decent. She has it together.

“Sometimes, I’m just like, how is she able to do this? We should put Tems out there for our young ladies to be looking up to as a role model,”
