Musician, Kofi Kinaata
Veteran gospel musician Agnes Opoku Agyemang isn’t convinced that Highlife musician Kofi Kinaata’s award-winning song ‘Things Fall Apart’ can immediately be described as a gospel song.
She said it could have been an inspiration Kofi Kinaata received when he was a kid in Sunday school.
In an interview with Tony Best on Akoma FM’s Kwantenpong Drive on Thursday, March 11, Agnes Opoku Agyemang, however, indicated that it is not too surprising to see secular musicians also do gospel songs.
“Many secular musicians have confessed in their interviews that their musical career began in the church, so it is not surprising to see them play gospel songs once. [in] a time because there is always some level of knowledge about Christ, they were taught in Sunday School.
“Kofi Kinaata, for example, might have been inspired to do ‘Things Fall Apart’ because of his knowledge of Christ while in Sunday school and that doesn’t necessarily make him a gospel musician or his song until he professes to be a Christian. “Agnes said.
Responding to whether or not the lifestyles of today’s gospel musicians reflect the messages in their songs, the musician opined that although she is not in a position to judge anyone, if someone claims to be a Christian or a gospel musician, their lives should be correlated. with the Gospel that they preach in their songs.
