Everyone has a mission in life – Obaapa Christy on Christians singing along to secular music

Everyone has a mission in life – Obaapa Christy on Christians singing along to secular music
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Renowned gospel artiste, Obaapa Christy says it is not wrong for a pastor or a Christian to sing secular songs.

She was contributing to the controversial debate that has trailed a viral video of a Catholic priest singing King Paulata’s ‘Aseda’ song in church.

Speaking with Merqury Quaye on U Sey Weytin, Obaapa Christy said the song is no different from what gospel musicians

“Every individual has his or her mission given to him to accomplish by God. Even the truck pusher, has his mission to accomplish because that is what was bestowed on him to do. The same applies to the footballer.”

Obaapa Christy added: “All you need to do is look within yourself and know what you are doing is good for you. With regards to the said music, God is being mentioned in the song and it’s the same as what gospel musicians sing.”

She also admonished individuals to pay more attention to their set goals rather than to criticisms.

“In music, there are wisdom songs, Christian songs, and profane songs. I can sit here and sing Amakye Dede’s or King Paluta’s music. All I want to say is, as humans, people will have negatives in everything that they do.

“We all get judged at some point in time, but you should not pay attention to them, but rather what God has said and would want to do for you”, she said on Hitz FM.

The Wagye Me singer also recalled a time she was bashed and questioned about dancing to artiste Kofi Antwi’s song.

“I met a women’s leader in a saloon during one of my travels. Kofi Antwi’s song was playing and I was dancing to the tune. As the song played, the lady questioned me on why I was dancing to that song. Immediately, I stopped and sat down.

“Just then I saw her tapping her legs as the song went along, then I brought it to her notice she was also moving her legs, along with the song”, Obaapa Christy observed.

She insisted that singing secular songs does not make one a sinner.

“God loves everybody regardless. If someone sings hip-life, it doesn’t make him or her a sinner or (mean the person) would not make it to heaven. It is his or her mission in life”, Obaapa Christy maintained.
