    Mabel Okyere on how ‘Gospel is free’ perception cripples Gospel musicians

    Gospel singer Mabel Okyere has called for a reversal of the widespread belief that Gospel musicians should work for free.

    Speaking with Nana Romeo on Okay FM, she explained that this attitude—prevalent within both the church and the general public—fails to consider the significant costs involved in producing and promoting music, ultimately harming Gospel musicians.

    Mabel lamented that this perception has left many Gospel artists financially disempowered.

    “In this world, you’d notice Gospel musicians couldn’t even charge [for their services] in the beginning,” she said, highlighting the resistance she and her colleagues often face from Christian leaders regarding payment.

    “The perception in society is that a Gospel musician shouldn’t charge a fee. So, if you’re on the same programme as a secular artist, they’ll be paid more than you. This mindset must be changed, and it’ll take the collective effort of both veteran and contemporary singers,” she added.

    She also spoke about the struggles of many talented Gospel acts who have great music but cannot release records due to a lack of executive producers or sponsors.

    While she declined to reveal the highest amount she has received from a church leader, she shared a memory from around the time she released her debut album, Ewurade Biribi Hia Me (Lord, I’m In Need), in 2013. She was given GHS100 in an envelope—the lowest amount she has ever received for a performance.

    “When I opened the envelope at home, as is my custom, I was torn between tears and laughter,” she recalled, choosing not to name the pastor who gave her the money.

    So Far So Good is Mabel Okyere’s latest release.
