If you got a song while swallowing hot Eba,
Please be bold enough to tell us; we won’t beat you.
But don’t tell us you were caught up in the third heavens, saw Angel Michael playing drums for you, with Angel Gabriel playing the flute, then heard the voice of a beast singing the song, and that was how you got the song.
If you paid money for bloggers and media platforms to push your song or ran sponsored ads, be bold enough to say you did it.
Don’t come and tell us you did nothing, you were just on your own and the thing is flying. Choi! Is your song a bird?
If you have people officially sponsoring your event, be bold enough to say so; don’t come and tell us God sent ravenous birds to finance the event and not a dime came from your pocket.
Songwriting Is Not Less Spiritual Because It Happened While Eating
Brethren, there is absolutely nothing wrong with getting a song while swallowing hot Eba (Garri); it doesn’t make it less spiritual. While it is true you can receive songs through encounters, it still doesn’t make it more spiritual.
The guy who got the song “Give me belle Holy Ghost, I want to carry fresh fire” said he got it through an encounter; you can encounter rubbish, my friend.
It is better to write the song when you have your mind, body, and soul present than to be in a trance and come up with rubbish.
Some of the songs you people accuse Angels that they sang, they can’t sing such rubbish. I am speaking on their behalf now.
Promotion Requires Effort
While God can magnify the spreading of a song, yet it is not true that it happens without you doing anything.
It should be a thing of honor to you that you spent your own money pushing your song. It shows passion and commitment to your gift.
Any day and time, I will respect the one who tells me how he spent promoting his song than the one that tells me he was sleeping and angels were spreading it.
The Danger of Spiritual Ego
This obsession to look like you carry plenty of grace and mystify your results with high-sounding spirituality is not of God, my friend.
For every time we do these things, we lead a generation astray. One of the greatest gifts you can give to a generation is the gift of your sincerity.
I have gotten songs through dreams, prophetic encounters, prayers, word studies, even in the kitchen, toilet, on the street and while eating; I have also gotten songs by just sitting with my pen and book to write.
I never fail to tell the story the way it is. My mentees and students in DMA bear witness to how detailed I can be with the processes that birthed a certain result.
It’s a vow I have taken upon myself: If I pumped in money into the promo and I am talking about the song, I mention it plainly. If I got the song while eating, I mention so plainly. It will help a generation get things right.
Final Words
Die to this obsession of spiritual EGO that leads to you trying to mystify things. If the grace is there, it is there. Don’t try to help God increase the grace.
You are endangering a generation with your insincerity.
I have written sincerely, some persons go read am now vex for me.
Stop Believing the Lies About “Grace” in Music
It is you upcoming artists who have no one to tell you the Truth and teach you the processes behind some of the results your celebrities brandish on social media as “GRACE” that I am pitying.
Register for DMA and learn you will not hear.
All you want is for people to keep telling you how they did nothing but got something. You will be shouting WOW WOW up and down.
You don’t know they are indirectly rendering you lazy and irresponsible. You release a song and go sleep, then wait for Angels to spread it after praying for 40 days and nights. When that doesn’t happen, you fall into depression and think you don’t have GRACE ENOUGH.
The Myths That Mislead You
They tell you they don’t know how to write any song, that they just sleep every day and wake up with songs. You shout “GRACE!” Meanwhile, you have been fasting daily to get sounds through dreams and prophetic encounters, but all you have been getting is:
“HOLY GHOST GIVE ME BELLE, I want to carry fresh fire.”
They will not tell you that they know how to play an instrument.
They won’t tell you how the knowledge of an instrument can aid your songwriting effortlessly.
They won’t tell you to read and study widely to understand the right use of words and figures of speech in writing a song.
The Reality
You like drama a lot, so they tell you what you want to hear, and you go WOW WOW WOW!
These things dey sha vex me.
You have no idea.
Let’s be telling this generation the Truth. Hard work is dying, intelligence in songwriting is dying, all because we tell a generation these high-sounding jargons and hide the processes that birth and enhance real results.
It’s sad!
