“I never planned to leave gospel but the hate was too much and the pretence. Hadi unaeza ona God hatabariki hii kitu, tuwache uwongo na tuwache kutumia jina ya yesu hapa. Hata hawa wamama wenye ni spiritual hawapendani,” he stated.
The Barua hit maker also emphasized that his relationship with God remains intact even after leaving the gospel music industry many years ago.
“Mimi si mtumishi wa Mungu, mimi ni mtoto wa Mungu. Our gospel needs a lot of cleaning. I know the principles of God and the bible says no one is perfect. We had so much fakeness in the industry,” he noted.
Over the years, Bahati has successfully reinvented himself in the secular music world, releasing hit songs and collaborating with some of the biggest names in the industry.
