Music recording outfit, M&E Music Company has announced the launch of its gospel music reality show tagged, ‘Gospel Icons Africa’, an initiative, borne out of a vision of grooming and nurturing young talents in a God’s way.The Chief Executive Officer of M&E Music Company, Esther Oladeji, stated that the reality show was created to solve the rate at which many Christian youths are ignoring gospel music for the secular music industry.“Many secular singers have their roots from church most popular artists evolve from the church but with this show, we strategically want to contain the youth in the church so that they won’t go astray,” she said.She continued, “We are putting structure and resources in place to address the issues of these youth opting for secular music. Let me hint you, the prize for the competition is nothing less than N15million with a brand new car including record label deals.”Oladeji further noted that the show will be open to all the youths in Africa as the audition process will be online. Thereafter, selected candidates will be invited to participate in the show and will undergo rigorous training to become the next gospel music superstars.The Executive Director of the music firm, Martins Bamidele also expressed that the mission of ‘Gospel Icons Africa’ is geared towards changing the narratives of the youths about the gospel music industry; thereby making them realize that anything can also be achieved in the kingdom of the Lord.Segun Oluwayomi, the Chief Operating Officer of the project, also said that the programme will be organised annually to achieve its primary goal.“This programme is going to be a yearly event. It’s a big project that is bigger than us because we’re going to be giving out franchises. That is why we call it Gospel Icons. Africa to continuing rising stars for the kingdom,” he said.“We all know what is going on around the world today that we are losing our youth gradually through the weapon of music. And we as Christians, we want to try as much as possible to bring them back to the Lord through the means of music to bring them back to God himself and that is that’s the essence of creating the Gospel Icons Africa.”Gospel artists including Mike Abdul, Efe Nathan, BeeJaysax, and music director Bode Afolabi will be the judges of the gospel music reality show.ALSO READ Tyra Archie Talks On Why Gospel Music Is Not Popular In The USA
