Ace music producer and sound engineer, Nana Sei, popularly known as Nacee has described Christians who do not play ‘secular’ songs during lovemaking as hypocrites, ABC News can report.
To him, lovemaking is part of the necessities of life and since Christians are humans, they should be able to play songs that put them in the mood during such moments.
According to Nacee who believes “gospel songs are for God”, he enjoys playing Highlife musician Kojo Antwi’s ‘Medofo Pa’ during lovemaking which puts him “in a romantic mood.”
“The Bible says that there’s time for everything so, at the time that you really want to bond with your partner, this is a very sexy moment. If immediately you are a spiritual person immediately you hear a gospel song during lovemaking, you will lose your fire. It should be romantic songs at that very moment”
“Christian songs are for God, the songs we use to praise God and also to encourage and inspire ourselves are for certain moments. That is why we are physical beings, when it comes to this body it needs a whole lot of things to move with. I normally play cool music from the olden days, we have mid-tempo love songs in the olden days, especially from Ghanaian musicians, one of the songs I can’t stop playing is Kojo Antwi’s “Medo fo pa”, it’s very beautiful so I think we shouldn’t be hypocrites, running away from that”, he said in an interview with Accra-based Hitz FM.
Nacee was heavily criticized by many Ghanaians, especially Christians after he released a collaboration with Hiplife artiste and rapper, Guru.
Although the song, ‘Boys Boys’ received massive airplay, it also resulted in many Christians questioning the commitment of the music producer to the Christian faith.
In an interview monitored by ABC News Monday, Nacee indicated that his collaboration with ‘secular’ artistes is his way of fulfilling the great commission for Christians to preach the word to every soul.
“Go ye the world to preach the gospel, we’re not preaching the word for the righteous people and so we are preaching the salvation message in the church. I think we are mistaken so if I’m trying to go out there, but going out there, you need to speak their language, If they are dirty, you need to also dirty yourself before they can understand you but people feel like because you don’t mention God’s name in a particular song, it is a secular song and I wonder how that becomes secular, ” he noted.
The ‘Efata Wo’ hitmaker added, “we shouldn’t be ashamed of people seeing us among worldly people because that is the mission. The only mission that we have is just two; worshiping God and also preach the gospel and preaching the gospel is not for the people in the church.”
