“I would rather die than remove Jesus from my profile” - Spyro recounts industry pressure to drop his faith

Nigerian singer Spyro has opened up about a defining moment in his career — one where his faith was put to the test by those closest to him in the industry.


The singer revealed that after leaving his former record label in 2019 to start his own journey, he took out bank and personal loans to fund his career. With no external financial backing, Spyro says he relied solely on determination, hard work, and his faith in God.

However, not everyone on his team believed that his overt Christian branding was a good idea.

According to Spyro, some team members approached him suggesting he change or tone down his “Jesus Boy” identity, arguing it might be limiting his appeal and financial opportunities. They even advised him to remove “Christ Ambassador” from his profile.

“I remember saying I would rather DIE than remove Jesus from my profile,” Spyro recounted, adding that while he understood their point of view, he could not compromise on his convictions.

When he refused to budge, one person suggested he at least change it to “Child of God,” calling it a broader term. But Spyro stood firm, insisting that the name of Jesus would open doors for him.

Fast forward to now, and Spyro says the same people who doubted him are calling to commend his success. “A lot of artistes are suffering now — no deals, no shows — but you are in a very good place and I am proud of you,” one team member reportedly told him.

This is an interesting one... Always stand for what you believe!!!

But who are all these people presuring our boys against Jesus pls we need to know these people.

Stand for something or you will fall for anything

But who are all these people presuring our boys against Jesus pls we need to know these people....

You don't want to remove Jesus brand but does your song and your latest music hit glorify God?
I think its a mockery.
Mere hanging a big image of Christ on the cross is religion, not service

That personal conviction is commendable especially in the industry where immoral stuffs ,immoral people and perverts pervade everywhere.

I am happy for him.

Good one young man.... the lord Jesus is your foundation... you shall fear nothing

Na him kuku know wetin him dey talk.

Who am I to judge 😌😌😌

God bless u brother. U are a mentor. I love u a billions times more now

Who knows this guy? Cause I don't understand why he is making this a big deal.

Those that denied me, I will deny them before my father.

Na so, odumodu wey dey dagger everybody sef start to dey preach for headies claiming they don't want him to mention Jesus. Who are those people i wonder?

Goonzz:
Everybody is just saying this I would rather die I would rather die as if you see that coming will stay

May our end be good

Righteousness is not here yet.

Let’s wait and see what he has to say on this.

God bless you.
Revelation 3:8 KJV
I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.

Jesus is not even the real name of the Christian Saviour. Jesus is an european construct.

All I see here is faith built in ignorance. Very useless 😕

So much noise about a mythical character

Jesus is your hero same way Superman is some people’s hero
Same delusions

It's a good thing that he has the Jesus on his profile. That is commendable.
The most important thing is that his life always show proof that he represents Jesus Christ in Word, speech, deeds and life style.

Thank you my brother. A lot of them disturbing with noises

He has done well for him self and his faith paid off for him. Nice

I just pray GOD should just have mercy on you and open your eyes to see him.

I don't know if you are saying the truth or just chasing clout. But I hope it's worth it
