As much as I love Sonnie, he must also accept the truth that death is inevitable for all mankind and that when he lays his icy hands on a loved one, its so painful. Is he saying he was joyous when he lost a close one? Doesn't he go sick? If he was born with a silver spoon in his so be it but the lyrics are equally true else we won't have lamentations in the bible.

Some will be anointed to sing only worship and praise songs others evangelistic songs for soul winning in which death and sickness will feature after all Jesus came to heal is part of the Foursquare Gospel. The mystery of death and sickness is part of the gospel message so should they be in song ministration. Remember Lucifer was a worship leader but I doubt if he ever sang to convert people to God.

Oh Ghanaians, why do you hate hard facts? Sonnie did nothing wrong by making that statement. A lot of people call themselves in Ghana gospel musicians but the truth is that they are not. Most of these local songs don't make any meaning neither do they praise God. That is why some of us prefer foreign gospel music because they are full of scriptures. Sonnie, i agree with you 100%. Don't allow these people to bring you down. You're the David of our time. Stay blessed.

There are different songs for different times. The Psalms, Lamentation, Songs of Solomon, Book of Revelation and Exodus just to mention a few, are all books of the Bible that contain songs sung in the Bible. As well as songs, we will sing in the New Jerusalem (heaven) such as the song of the redeemed and the songs of Moses found in the Book of Revelation.
The content (lyrics) of the songs varies a great deal. Some of the content will fit the praise and worship genre and other will provide the opportunity for reflection and lamentations. However, they all serve their purpose as intended.
It is rather challenging when you want to everyone to minister in the line of your calling. There is diversity of gifts and spirit and we have to be respectful of the different ministries and gifts of the people of God.
To illustrate, most Black American sing about " the stroms of life, "Glory of God" and what God has made them (ie songs like Never, could have made it and my life is in your hands); whereas the white folks sing about (the redemptive work of God on the cross and the Holiness and greatness of God). When you put all these songs together, you have great variety for the edification of the saints.
Master Sonnie you are one of many minstrel called to minster to the body of Christ. Other have a message too and there is a place for everyone.

I am sad to b reading this about Ghana gospel for two reasons:
1. This is an old issue and should never have been written about. This article was published in 2009/10 why post it again. I guess some thrive on controversies that get people talking and distracted, instead directing the people of God to focus their mind on things above. It is a shame the author of this article will write an article based on one source that is littered with error. The bible has all sort of songs and they all serve their purpose pretty well.
2. I bet there are other Gospel artists who are faithfully serving God and impacting lives, I guess it will be excellent to read about them. News feed about Cecilia Marfo states any time she picks up a microphone "the atmosphere changes", this is not a Childs play. This is similar to David playing/singing for Saul evil spirit to leave. How many singers will dare minister to a psychotic individual on a psychiatric ward; yet nothing has been written about how she achieves this in a ministry. We devote out time publish article that lacks credibility and won't edify the saints.
It is about time we use these platforms online to promote Ghanaian gospel. You have to search so hard to read scanty news about Mary Ghansah, yet her songs has defined the praise and worship genre in Ghana. Minister Sonnie has made gains by including one of her songs Yen Agya on his Colours of Africa album and I doubt he paid the appropriate royalties.

hmmm i think he has made his chose and he is entitled to it,,
If he said what the media claims he said then i agree with him, please, please please, let us sing and worship to exalt God. I believe our praises and thanksgiving should surpass our petitions.
Sonnie mind your own business , is not up to u to decided what nd how people should make their songs, if u think what u r doing is the best, then keep nd shut up
Sonnie you are right. I just heard a hip hop gospel song from Gifty Osie and i vomited. And there is another one called "bongrate"

I will be inclined to give some merit to Sonnie's misjudged comment if he writes/compose 90% of the songs on his albums. Man you keep recycling other people songs that have prayed and fasted for over the years and you have th ...

sonnie Badu ,You are right
no apology,needed ,the truth is hard to take. most lyrics of our songs stifle our zeal and enthusiasm to magnify God. we truly need a change
apologies for what ....
Ghanians are always misquoting peoples statement.
That's it, sonnie is on the right way, we must worship n give praise to him only but not complaning on other matters
i think sonnie is right..instead of telling God how big your problem is why don't we tell our problems how big our God is by praising and worshiping Him.....
Ghanaians hate the truth.what is wrong with Sonnie's statement? Why can't you people accept the hard fact? Indeed, most of these gospel local songs don't make any meaning neither do they glory God.In fact, some of us prefer f ...

gv sonnie a break. he is creative n get swag.
i think sonnie is right.I'm not against screens, or new
songs, or innovation. I just don't like
the gimmicks. I want to know when
worship is over that that leader's
sole purpose was to glorify the Lord
Jesus Christ.

sonnie is really right cos Ghanaians we always wan some thing frm God bt always fail to woship him,der re so many songs out der which always talks abt de same tin abt God,Sonnie u re too much God richly bless u
sonnie is really right cos Ghanaians we always wan some thing frm God bt always fail to woship him,der re so many songs out der which always talks abt de same tin abt God,Sonnie u re too much God richly bless u
Even if he said that, he is not lying. We are tired of local gospel musicians projecting the devil as powerful. Just hope they are not agents
Well sonnie has got a point there I totally agree with him... Ghanaian gospel musicians should consider the positive aspect of this criticism and make the industry better.
Alright, what sonnie said atually makes sense, but he should h ave said it in other way becos as wepraise god and worship him we have to cast our burden on him and we can also do this through songs david did.
i think one shouldnt be ofending the other as christians so if only some think what he said offends them then he should

I see nothings wrong with what he said because he is right, God deserves true worship and not songs as described... Let us tell the truth.
yes he said it right I support him for at god is indeed greath
Sonny was speaking truth.no apology needed. Media game for publicity. If we serv God He dont struggle n we must move past that mind set n,look up,not down an sing glory n not doom to God. Chang is necessary.

The truth may be bitter,but it must be said.Sonnie Badu is right.It does not apply to gannia gospel musicians allone,but them all over the world.Let them be inspired fm God n glorfy God,all other things will follow.More of Go ...

He is very much entitled to his opinion. As a matter of fact he is right.
sonnie is my Man and as a singer I support him.
Sonnie if you look at your fingers you will see that none of then look the same.those who do those songs also touch lives as your songs do.their songs also have a purpose to fulfill for God
weather he said or not,he's very right.it's our gosple sing songs that gives praise & worship to the LORD.Let them learn from,Uncle Ato,Rev.Bernard Ankomah.
is true some times u dnt really c d ryt tin untill someone tells u so ppl u shld say thank u and nt he must apologise p
sonnie is 100% right. talking of death is like exalting satan. sickness isnot of god.
Mind your own bussiness!
I support wat Sonnie said we should exalt God and not our problems.
it is true some ghanaian gospel is nt even gospel.if u luk at it.some just sing 4 fun or money
