Gospel according to Bez: Chart-topping artiste shifts focus from secular to gospel music

Reflecting on his initial hesitation, Bez shared, “Last summer, I felt a strong urge to go out and worship on the streets of Cambridge. It was a challenge to overcome my pride and fear of judgment, but I realized it wasn’t about me—it was about being obedient to what God was calling me to do.”

After several years of absence from the Nigerian music scene, where he once reigned as a formidable force, fans of singer-songwriter Bez have found themselves wondering about his whereabouts.

The talented musician, known for his soulful melodies and genre-bending sound, seemed to have “vanished” without any traces.

However, much to the surprise of many, Bez recently emerged from his hiatus, revealing a profound transformation in both his music and his life.

In a heartfelt revelation, Bez disclosed that he had stepped away from secular music and embraced gospel tunes, citing a transformative encounter with God as the catalyst for this profound shift.

This announcement left fans and music enthusiasts intrigued, eager to learn more about the singer’s spiritual journey and the inspiration behind his newfound musical direction.

Now, Bez has taken his newfound faith to the streets of London, where he serenades passersby with soulful gospel tunes.

Reflecting on his journey, Bez shared his initial reluctance to embrace this calling, admitting to concerns about his reputation and fear of judgment.

However, as he yielded to God’s prompting, Bez discovered a deeper purpose in spreading love and hope through his music.

Reflecting on his initial hesitation, Bez shared, “Last summer, I felt a strong urge to go out and worship on the streets of Cambridge. It was a challenge to overcome my pride and fear of judgment, but I realized it wasn’t about me—it was about being obedient to what God was calling me to do.”

In a video obtained by Per Second News, as Bez’s melodic voice filled the streets, passersby were drawn in by the heartfelt music and message of hope.

Some stopped to listen, while others dropped coins or even went to ATMs to offer support.

Bez also took the opportunity to pray for those in need, creating moments of profound connection amidst the hustle and bustle of the city.

Looking ahead, Bez announced plans to take his street worship tour to ten cities across the UK, including Leeds, Leicester, Liverpool, Bristol, Birmingham, and Oxford.

Embracing the opportunity to share not only his music but also personal stories of faith, Bez emphasized, “This tour is not about me or my reputation. It’s about being an instrument for the Father’s use and spreading His love wherever I go.”
