please i need advice from music career men and women. I write and compose songs but yet to produce any due to financial constrain. Last year at my local assembly i ministered in a song i composed and lives were touched includin my pastor's wife. Fast forwardin this year i relocated and had to leave that assembly, i joined a new one but under the same mission. During one of our general program i heard my former pastor's wife organised a group in the church and they are working on an album. Now i saw that album today its been released and lo and behold my song was the main track word for word , the album was even named after the track. Till now she has not even called to tell me anything. I dont know if there is anything i can do to get something on the song.

Message me..We have music business to discuss.

Approach the pastor's wife and tell her that she plagiarised your work. For a start, she must acknowledge you as the composer.
Then, the monetary aspect would be settled according to your wish : paying you an agreed sum once, or paying you royalty.
I am not in the music industry. But I know of the acknowledgement stuff. If she refuses to acknowledge you, threatento sue her and be sure to carry out your threat.

Fraud is the landmark of pastors and evangelists. Take heart or take it up lawfully. Take one of the two piece of advice.

I have never badmouthed men of God because there is nothing such as 'men of God'. Rather, I tell the truth about Yahweh and 'men of Yahweh'! who are making a mess of many brains in my country, Africa and all over the world.

Well, I could have said the Holy Spirit gives songs, but it might not be word for word

You have not gotten over it, and should not have to. I bet if you know go about performing that song, pastor wife will come after you!

Make sure you register your rights to your songs. You may want to use that fact in the future sometime.
