Afrobeats singer Spyro has ignited a conversation by revealing that his toughest critics are fellow Christians, not Muslims. In an open discussion with Frank Edoho, the “Who’s Your Guy” artist expressed his disappointment at the lack of support from his Christian community, stating that instead, he faces harsh judgment.
“The biggest challenge I’ve encountered in this industry so far has been from Christians. I expected us to be like family, but they are the ones who criticize me the most—everything from my earrings to my lifestyle,” Spyro explained.
He further noted that many believers misconstrue his words and often threaten to cancel him whenever he talks about Jesus publicly. “Once you mention Jesus, there’s always an issue. But if you say you’re Buddhist, nobody seems to care,” he added.
Spyro defended his viewpoint, insisting that Christianity and success can coexist. “Christ is better preached in a G-Wagon. That’s lifestyle evangelism. You can be in Christ and still be successful,” he affirmed.
According to him, not every Christian needs to be in a pulpit to preach; some can take the gospel into entertainment and other industries.
