Singer Ric Hassani believes gospel artists switch to secular music for personal fulfillment rather than money. He says many musicians lack the special gift needed to minister through church music. Gospel singing requires more than just vocal ability according to the Nigerian performer. Artists need a blessed calling to communicate God's words through their songs effectively. Some singers simply cannot connect with the Holy Spirit during musical worship.
Hassani started his career at church but realized gospel music was not his true purpose. He compares different artists and their unique gifts for reaching people through music. Katy Perry cannot deliver spiritual messages like CeCe Winans does naturally. Whitney Houston had different blessings for touching hearts with her voice. Each musician possesses distinct talents for reaching specific audiences.
The artist remains a strong Christian and adds gospel songs to his albums regularly. He feels called to impact the world through different types of music instead. Hassani would not succeed at church music the way Frank Edwards or Mercy Chinwo do. Money does not drive artists to change genres according to his observations. Creative satisfaction from making music provides more fulfillment than financial rewards ever could.
