Hassani revealed that he began his music career in the church but switched after he discovered that it wasn’t his calling.
Popular singer Ric Hassani has opened up on why some gospel musicians switch to secular music.
According to him, the reason is to find fulfilment than financial gains.
Speaking further, he noted that a lot of musicians who started their careers in the gospel genre switch to the secular music industry because they don’t have the gift of ministration.
In a recent interview with Hip TV, Hassani shared that he began his music career in the church but switched after he discovered that it wasn’t his calling.
He said, “Gospel is beyond singing. You have to be blessed to be able to interpret God’s words through music. For example, there is no way a Katty Perry would communicate God’s words through music the way CeCe Winans does. I feel like CeCe is blessed with being able to communicate the Holy Spirit through music. Whitney Houston is blessed in a different way.
“So, I don’t feel this idea of everybody must be in church. Some of us were made for the world. I also have Christian songs. I’m a very strong Christian. In all my albums, there is at least one gospel song. But that’s not really my calling. I meant to impact the world in a different way, with a different kind of music. I’m not going to do it the way Frank Edwards or Mercy Chinwo is going to do it. If I enter church music now, I fit no bang. It’s not my thing.
“People leaving gospel music for secular music is not about money. Creatives or people who blessed with these gifts like money, everybody likes money. But the real fulfilment is being able to do it and exist doing it. Even the Wizkids, the Burnas that have all the money in the world… If it was really about money, then Davido has no business doing anything because he has all the money he would ever need.
“So, it’s not really about money. The kind of satisfaction that comes from being able to think of an idea of thing and put it on the record and create music is beyond money. It’s bigger than any satisfaction money can give you.”
