Well-known gospel performer Sonnie Badu has suggested combining commercialized and spiritual gospel music. Sonnie Badu emphasized the importance of striking a balance between gospel music's commercial and spiritual components in a conversation with Naa Dedei Tettey on Morning Starr on Wednesday. He also emphasized the necessity to keep a balance between the two aspects of gospel music, warning against giving commercialization precedence over spirituality.
"When you realize you were only spirit-filled and have missed so many opportunities, regret comes in at the end of the day," he said. Additionally, Sonnie Badu pointed out that since it costs money to post songs to digital platforms, gospel musicians may profit financially from commercializing spirit-filled music, enabling them to continue practicing and sharing their gift. Additionally, he exhorted gospel performers to strike a balance between spirituality and commerce. He said, "The leverage you gain after your music blesses the world becomes a plus for your craft."
Furthermore, he clarified that music and the soul are intertwined, therefore if you are exceptional at what you do, your music may have an impact and be recognized worldwide despite a language barrier. The gospel singer also revealed that his next performance, "Afro Monty," in collaboration with Silicon House, will happen on November 29 at Independence Square.The event is entirely free, Basu added, and he promised Ghanaians an amazing experience that will surpass their expectations. "You will lose your seat if you don't arrive early because admission to Independence Square is free," he continued.
