“Speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord”

Roki released a gospel song alongside Queen Kadjah called “Ndinouya”. The music video features Prophet Passion Java and Robert Mugabe Junior. It is common for artists that sing in other genres to release Christian music from time to time. Beyonce did it with Kelly and Michelle in the song “Say Yes”.

People tend to react to these songs differently with questions like Is it wise for someone who sings about the world or non-Christian themes to also sing Gospel music? Is it possible for the same person that pushes a worldly agenda to also push the Word of God? Can clean water and dirty water flow from the same stream?

When one listens to Gospel music is it the words of a song that matter or the Spirit behind the song? Many times artists from various genres sing a song with the words “God”, “worship”, and any other commonly used Christian words and call the song Gospel. When an artist sings a Gospel song is it Gospel because of the words or because of their lifestyle we identify with them as Gospel artists?

Another popular case of a Gospel singer that lived a contrary life is the late Lundi Tyamara. Despite being one of the most popular gospel singers of his time, Lundi confessed to struggling with drug and alcohol abuse in 2003. He proceeded to book himself into a rehabilitation centre. Rumors also circulated that he would have relations with married men.

Roki’s video is on 100 000 views and trending at No.3. The reception has been generally good and people have commented that they always expected that Passion Java Records owned by Prophet Passion Java would be producing mainly Gospel music. What do you think of the video?

Given the mentality people have towards issues of governance, the song’s praise for ED Mnangagwa was deemed a mockery to Zimbabweans. This is because of the vast amount of starving and struggling Zimbabweans blame the president for these conditions.

Political activists like the controversial Hopewell Chin’ono and Fadzayi Mahere were quick to express their sentiments on his song. They suggested that this could very well be the most expensive rubbish that was produced. Some of the issues raise were that the song is said to be insensitive to the feelings of the people of Zimbabwe.
