The gospel industry, influential ability, and corporate gigs got a mention too. Muthoni claims that gospel business is more about the vibe and dance moves than the actual message, giving referrals to "Bazokizo" and "Odi Dance" hits. "That's why ' KE gospel' slaps so hard. It's not about Jesus. It's about moving the masses of bodies." MDQ also slammed corporates for encouraging the "fakeness of gospel artists" for gigs, thanks to the influence aspect. "Corporate KE is very tied to bottom-line ie numbers", she tweeted.Let's be clear Willy Paul is NOT the bullshit here. I think he is very talented. IMO he has been long overdue to make a clean break from fake gospel industry, the injili crowd+the corporate Ksh that keeps pushing it. I sincerely long for him to really develop himself as an artist

MDQ says that fans also perpetuate this fallacy based on hit songs, stating, "And then there is us the fans. We know when we hear the song there's nothing to do with Jesus/gospel… So we all perpetuate the bullshit because the song slaps."Corporate KE is very tied to bottom line ie numbers. The more bodies you can move▶️the bigger the song▶️ the higher the ranking as artist▶️ the more likely you can get that corporate cheque. So now you know why the lineups to those corporate sponsored gigs look like they do

She concludes by advising Willy Paul to "drop the gimmicks", tweeting this:So we all perpetuate the bullshit because the song slaps. Let's be clear. If an the entertainer has enough creativity to make something you like/love, they're not the bullshitter. It is you who insists they have to be gospel so they can access your time/love/money/audience

And most importantly yes to the new, real Willy Paul. Drop the gimmicks bro. Build your new path for real. You've got what it takes. I pray 200 more fake gospel artists vuka the sakafu and join Willy in being their whole, authentic, creative selves. We need that.
