Disunity in Gospel industry is due to greed - OJ

Gospel musician, OJ Known in real life as Michael
Oware Sakyi says he agrees with music producer
Roland Ackah popularly known as Roro’s comments
that there is no unity amongst Gospel musicians.
Roro alleged in an interview on Hitz Entertainment
News ‘that things are not really going well with the
lifestyle of most gospel artistes’.
Confirming this on Hitz Entertainment News on the
Cruise Control, OJ' cited his reasons for supporting
Roro’s assertion saying, “this is very common
especially among Gospel musicians who do the
same type of music, which is the reason they
compete against each other.
“He also added that there was a lot of competition in
the gospel music industry because the artistes
have lost their calling and are pursuing something
else which they were not called to do”, he added.

He however explained that “if anyone competes
with his fellow gospel musician, then it means you
are not gifted enough or you don’t value what God
has given you.”
OJ added that "I advise them to get closer to those
who are doing well and learn from them but instead,
they envy them".
This, OJ said is not new in the gospel music
industry “so let’s not pretend or cover it up, let’s
speak the truth.”
He says he feels sad when they go for shows and
gospel musicians quarrel, and then he is forced to
ask if they are not Christians. “If you see what
happens backstage when we go for shows, you
would ask yourself if we are Christians.”
