Ace Nollywood actor and broadcaster, Patrick Doyle has urged mainstream gospel singers to stop seeking validation from the entertainment industry after Nigerian singer, Tems secured her fourth BET Award on Monday at the Peacock Theater in Downtown Los Angeles.
TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports that the Grammy winner claimed the Dr. Bobby Jones Best Gospel/Inspirational Award for her 2023 hit, “Me & U,” beating out notable artists like Kirk Franklin, CeCe Winans, and Maverick City Music.
Reacting, Doyle via his Facebook account on Tuesday expressed displeasure that an evidently secular musician recieved a christian award. He further urged committed christians to stop seeking vaildation from the entertainment industry, citing that it 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 the best gosel song. That said, I believe its about time that committed christians stop seeking validation from fickle institutions like the entertainment industrt mafia which by the way is in the grip of satan.”
