During a recent live session, the Konde Gang boss addressed his earlier comments regarding referring to God as a woman, which had elicited mixed reactions on social media.
“I am also seeking forgiveness from the leaders of my religion for any offense I may have caused. God is merciful, and I trust in His forgiveness. I had my reasons for suggesting that God is a woman; it stems from the kindness I’ve experienced from women in my life,” Harmonize expressed during the live session on April 21.

The controversy ignited on April 11 when Harmonize shared his belief on social media that God could potentially be a woman, saying:
“After 30 years, I’ve come to the realization that God might indeed be a woman.”
Despite being aware of religious teachings cautioning against equating God with any worldly entity, the “Never Give Up” crooner proceeded to emphasize the significant contributions of women.
“We commonly refer to Him as God the Father,” he noted, adding, “A woman equals one and a half men. Henceforth, I will not compare myself to women or regard myself as superior to any woman in the world.”
Harmonize has pledged to conduct another live session to spotlight the women who have greatly influenced his musical journey.
