Gospel star Joyce Blessing has clarified that she did not feature Hiplife star King Paluta on her latest song under divine direction.
She spoke to Taller Dee on Journey to Heaven on No.1 FM, 105.3.
“God did not instruct me to feature King Paluta, but we commit everything we do into God’s hands,” Joyce Blessing said.
“I will not deceive you by saying God expressly told me to do it. But I committed it to God through prayer.”
The Victory hitmaker explained that in her prayer, she told God, “This is a thanksgiving song I am dedicating to you. So bless it for me.”
With the release of Correct featuring King Paluta, Joyce Blessing finds herself back on defense as some people in the Christian community and Gospel music fraternity view her choice of collaborator as controversial.
She faced a similar situation when she released Victory, and it was revealed that Highlife/Afrobeats star Kuami Eugene wrote and produced the song.
For many Christians, the collaboration between gospel and secular musicians is seen as inappropriate, as gospel music is regarded as sacred. Furthermore, the lifestyles and music themes of secular musicians often conflict with Christian teachings.
