SP Kofi Sarpong Says Secular Musicians are not Evil
Self acclaimed King of African Borborbor SP Kofi Sarpong has advised his colleague Gospel musicians to stop branding secular musicians as evil.
According to SP Kofi Sarpong, there’s no barrier between Gospel and secular musicians so the former should rather be more interested in the latter content and lyrics. S.P Kofi Sarpong made this assertion during a press conference at the Alisa Hotel, Ridge in Accra, during the unveiling of his forthcoming SP Kofi Sarpong Live In Concert festival slated for May 28 at the National Theatre.
There’s no barrier between gospel and secular musicians. Even those we call secular musicians, we should listen to their content and lyrics. Listen to Nana Ampadu’s Obra and you’ll realize that there’s a lot of sense in it. Anytime Kwaw Kesse meets me, he asks me when we are both going to collaborate on a song. Shatta Wale also meets me and says we have to do something. They understand what we do and so sometimes, we must also understand what they do. They are not evil, he noted
