Hello everyone..
It's Hive Open Mic 179
Most pastors refer to African songs with beats like "Ariaria" as local and not suitable for the modern and sophisticated taste of our Gen Z generation. šš
My church is a witness to this trend, and although I appreciate it for introducing new changes and improvements, not everybody enjoys it. My best friend Sarah, for instance, misses our traditional style of praise.
Usually, we are allowed to sing our traditional praise songs once a month. So, this theme inspired my entry this week, and I decided to pick two songs we consider Western in our church.
As you can see, both songs were written and performed by Nigerians but have a Western flow and style.
What are your thoughts on this new trend?
Please enjoy my entry
