In a recent clip, Spyro alleged that proclaiming Jesus Christ in public in the Nigerian music industry comes with challenges to singers’ careers.
The Who’s Your Guy crooner, who recently exchanged words with music executive Paulo while speaking on the Echo Room podcast, shared what popular R&B star and actor turned pastor Bankole Wellington, aka Banky W, told him.
According to Spyro, Banky W revealed that his problems in the music industry began after he publicly proclaimed Christ.
Spyro, who also refers to himself as “Jesus Boy”, said proclaiming Christ has led people to deny him support in the music industry.
The singer revealed his biggest challenge was industry discrimination, stating that he has been criticized since launching the ‘Jesus Boy’ brand.
“Do you see these guys post me? Sometimes, I ask myself why because people who are not doing as well as I am, they post them. The answer is simple; once you come out and declare Christ publicly, you enter a war,” he said while speaking about lack of support.
Speaking on what Banky W told him, Spyro
said:
“It’s like the whole system is designed to pull you down. Banky W told me that his problem started in the industry the moment he proclaimed Christ. He told me to be sure that I am ready for this. He said when he was a ‘bad boy’, everything was going well but immediately he decided to do it in godly way, war started.”

“That’s not true!!! Banky W found it hard to adapt to time with his style of music and that is why he failed.”

“What the dude said was right, But he doesn’t have to take it personal, It’s natural, A true Christian face this challenge almost every day of his/ her life. You cannot be in Christ and expect the world to treat you the same.”
Oluwamayow20511:
“Okay. Yes he is right on the criticism the moment you’re a devoted Christian. But I can’t remembered him being dragged. Except he is just tryna put himself in “the conversation”.”
