Gospel musician, Perez Muzik
Gospel musician Perez Musik has revealed the financial challenges he faces in his career, stating that he often spends more than he earns.
According to him, making Gospel music is more of a passion than a lucrative venture.
“For me as a Gospel musician, I spend more than I make. It’s more passion than money to me,” he revealed in an interview with Empress Gifty on the ‘Ucook’ show.
Perez Musik also shared his concerns about the way churches treat Gospel artistes.
He noted that while churches expect musicians to perform for free or at minimal cost, they do not always extend the same courtesy when gospel artistes need their venues for events.
“If you want to use the church auditorium for an event, the pastor asks you to go see the church’s administrator, but if the church calls you and you ask them to speak to your manager, they get mad,” he pointed out.
The ‘Hewale Lala’ hitmaker further revealed that some churches even stop inviting musicians who insist on proper managerial communication.
“Sometimes they won’t call you again. These people will say if you call him, he will be directing you to his manager,” he added.
