There are only a few worshippers in Nigeria whose life and songs call down God’s glory. Chris Delvan Panam Percy Paul Nathaniel Bassey Joshua Selman Sinach Chioma Jesus Prospa Ochimana Check the their songs. They are soundly based on revelations and Scriptures. Consistency is common to all just mentioned. 3 Likes |

Jeezuzpick: The guy is not a gospel artist but opportunistic. I knewGordons and his crew back then. One of them had problem with his leg. Members of Pastor Ayos Word of Life That man just took that well wellu and ran to Lagos and out it in cd and became a celebrity. God never called him to sing organized songs to him. There are people called to release new praise songs to God and he is not one of them 3 Likes |

therajah: Ah! It's even worse to sing another's song at a live concert. The purpose of concerts is to show the world you can sing your song well outside a studio environment. Can you imagine Davido singing Runtown's "Mad over you' at a live concert? 13 Likes |

For all saying there is nothing wrong in singing songs written by others since its gospel... Can you explain what covetousness is from bible standpoint? Will the artist at the concert glorifying God with effort of others get financial reward for his actions. If he does he is a thief and all others supporting him/her are like-minded. The gifts of God is to profit withal, if you are exploiting the work of a man for your own reward without acknowledgement you are a thief.. Reply with bible to support your views 16 Likes 4 Shares |

therajah: I agree....yet there's a reason these artistes are known to the point of being invited, and that is the songs they have written, performed and released. The songs are their identities, the reason they got that much recognition in the first place. A backup choir or praise team can sing anyone's song to bless the people, but Tope Alabi is invited because she is Tope Alabi, for instance, so she should get on stage and do her, not someone else. 9 Likes |

Many Lagosians think Woekilemo is Sammie Okposo's song. If a church choir ministers it in church as a normal praise, it is no biggie. But a professinal musician perfoming another's song is copyright theft. Do u remember Majek calling out Timi for such? In Timi's case he showed proof of paying for it. Sammie should stick to his songs and stop singing Asu's song after all he is paid- heavily! 6 Likes |

Brandstudio01:When am not supporting the exploitation of the work of a man If you dont know that is simply what is happening, some artiste will wait on God for inspiration or was blessed with a song, others toiled way back to bring songs to a fore but someone somewhere is jumping from one pulpit to another singing those songs and collecting guest artiste fee. If u support this may the just God bless u with same experience. A Christian brother will reap of your sweats afterall he will thank God and give testimony about sweatless reward. 10 Likes |

In a gathering like this, it's not about who has this song or that, it's not about monopoly or privatization of any song, it's about glorifying the name of Jesus Christ. If Apostle Paul writes a revelation, it is for the body of Christ to edify. In a setting like this, the flesh ought to be dead, and your Joy is to see that where ever the song is being ministered, lives are being transformed. I can imagine the lives of Fanny Crosby who sang Blessed Assurance, Pass me not o Gentle saviour, To God be the Glory just to mention a few saying she should be credited at every time these hymns are sung. Only when we are broken, then will we know that we are just privileged to have been chosen to sing these songs. Remember, God is able to raise stones to praise Him. This is why we sing and nothing happens, because we are too full of ourselves. No pride can stand in the presence of the Holy Spirit. I really feel like weeping because this character grieves the Holy Spirit. It is not of Paul that planted nor Apollo that waters but God who gives the increase. we must decrease Jesus must increase. The flesh needs to be CRUCIFIED. MERCY O GOD� 3 Likes |

Asu Ekiye fall my hand! Brother, it’s gospel of Jesus Christ they are spreading through songs. You should be proud and honored that your songs are among what gets the people to that place of worship. At the end of the day, it’s God that is praised and not man. Michah Stampley sang Orise iyanu and I didn’t hear him give accolade to Bassey. Same with Donnie McClurkin who have turned ’Imela’ to his anthem. These guys should just take a chill and know that they are not secular artists. Asu Ekiye, again you fall hand for this one. 2 Likes |

Rubbish Gospel songs are not hip-hop songs. They are songs to glorify God. No one should be attaching "my own', 'his own', 'her own' to it. 1 Like |

Ishilove:It's all because the mercantile spirit has taken over Christianity and everyone thinks in terms of self. The motivation for Christian songs used to be for praise and worship of God. It was directed upwards and then it mattered not who wrote the songs. Many people today do not know of the great hymn writers like Isaac Watts, Augustus Toplady, fanny Crosby, John Newton etc yet their songs continue to edify the church. But now 'performers' have taken over and in keeping with the reality of money and the adulation of the crowd, it makes sense to demand that artists should sing their own songs so that they don't steal the shine from the original song writer. Comments here show that there's no distinction between a rock concert and church programmes like The Experience. They are all for show. I was there in 2010. A. W Tozer saw this years ago now the thing has ripened. |

Say what you like, but for me, this attack on Sammie's personality reeks of nothing but envy... As far as Gospel music is concerned, who has or claims full rights to songs??!... Which artiste on Friday night didn't borrow whole songs or lyrics on that stage??!... Asu Ekiye is even guilty of what he is pointing fingers. He is too old for this kind of childishness. |

[quote author=dochenaj post=84746819]There are choruses that are nobody's song but everybody's song. Over the years gospel artiste has remixed the age long chorus into their brands but the original song belong to everyone. If an artiste sings the original song, then that is no problem but if they sing the remixed version, it is not so cool. But it is not any reason enough to bicker and fight, cos at the end of the day, God is praised and men are edified. Na so God is praised and Sammys account is fat while the original song owners account is in debits not fair at all 3 Likes |
