Nollywood actor Patrick Doyle has offered words of comfort to gospel artists feeling snubbed by Tems’ win at the BET Awards
Tems, an Afrobeats artist, won Best Gospel/Inspirational Song for her hit “Me & U”, surprising many and sparking debate.
Patrick Doyle opined on the issue on Facebook, urging gospel artists to seek validation from a higher power, rather than the “fickle” entertainment industry, which he believes is “in the grip of Satan”.
He wrote:
: “I feel the pain of mainstream gospel artistes who feel slighted that Tems an evidently secular musician was awarded the BET award for best gospel song. That said I believe it’s about time that committed christians stop seeking validation from fickle institutions like the entertainment industry mafia which by the way is in the grip of satan.”
