My Mum Wanted Me To Pursue Gospel Music – Kwesi Arthur
After nurturing his musical talent in the Church of Pentecost, it was the desire of rapper Kwesi Arthur’s mother to see her son join the gospel music fraternity but he ‘swerved’ her.
The young musician like most artistes who started from the church shot to fame with his popular ‘Grind Day’ song, a secular piece in a HipHop vein last year.
So while people were jamming to it, the Ade Akye rapper’s mother was unhappy because she wanted her son to work for God.
Kwesi Arthur who made this revelation on the Delay Show went on to say his mother who initially
wanted him to do gospel music because of his strong Christian background has grown to accept the path he has taken with good guidance.

“Initially, she wasn’t happy with my music career path when I started. But now, I always play my songs for her to listen and
she will be like, ‘I don’t like this word, take it out’ and all that. She has always been supportive though.
“Her only wish was for me to do gospel music so when I came out with Woara, she was very happy.
The song is even her ringtone now,” Kwesi Arthur said.
The ‘Anthem’ rapper said even though he’s not departed from his strict Christian upbringing,
he has fallen to temptations from women on a few ocassions.
