A few weeks after the release of Sarkodie’s ‘No Pressure’ album, gospel musician, MOG Music has opened up on his collaboration with the rapper on the ‘I’ll be there’ track.
The musicians responded to concerns about working with acts that do not belong to the gospel fraternity.
The singer told JoyNews that collaborating with a secular musician is not a challenge for him.
MOG explained that he is open to teaming up with artistes of any genre as long as the message resonates with him.
“For me, it’s the orientation. So far as it sits with me and the message is right, I believe I can make a positive impact.
“Sarkodie and I are childhood friends. He sent me the song, I liked it, and I jumped on it. In fact, if any secular musician walks up to me and has a good gospel song, I’ll jump on it,” he said. Known in real life as Nana Yaw Boakye, MOG Music joins a handful of gospel musicians to collaborate with a secular artiste.
