“My gospel album, ‘Cultural Praise’ paid more than any other in my entire music career” – Kcee

Superstar singer and businessman, Kingsley Okonkwo, professionally known as Kcee, has revealed that his joint gospel album with Okwesili Eze Group, ‘Cultural Praise’ paid him more money than other albums he has ever released in his entire music career.

Kcee in a recent interview with Cool FM, Lagos, said people mocked him when he toed the line of gospel music, saying it was the end of his career, but surprisingly, the gospel album turned out to be a whopping success.

Kcee said, “When I did the gospel [album] and a lot of people were like, ‘It’s over, he is actually going close to his village. Now he’s taking the music to the village.’

“That was horrible. When I heard that I was like, okay, let’s see how that works. And it didn’t happen. I made more money from it [the gospel album]; more than any ever before in my whole career.”
