Why Gospel Artists Have An Attitude
I was on the internet when I came across the topic “Why Gospel Artists Have An Attitude?”.
So this reminded me of a call I received from Sonnie Badu's personal assistance in 2011. “Minister Sonnie might not come to Dublin for Seed of Life Concert because the airline was giving him unnecessary trouble” she said.
Fortunately he made it to Dublin and I sent a friend to pick him and his keyboardist from the airport. On arrival “they were quiet and were not talking”. So I hurried up to go check up on him at the hotel so I can make sure they were settled in. So I bought grapes and Salmon. Surprisingly Sonnie Badu liked salmon and grapes and he was very pleasant.
Listening to Yolanda Adams Show, Marcus D Wiley explains that it is how these Guest Artist(s) are treated when they arrive at events that make them look like they have attitude.
Also he said “I am going to bust that out on Churches or event planners who know that the Gospel Artists are coming and when they land at the airport, you are not there to pick them on time.
Therefore, Artists get this attitude because they think you knew what time they would arrive, remember you sent the itinerary!”.
So only if we remember that these Gospel Artists still have other commitments such as secular job, looking after kids and spouse, community contribution and helping in their local churches. Despite all of these commitments, they try to be at the airport on time, travel the distance and when he/she land, there is no one there on time.
As we all say You don't know what we've been through. I can tell you Artists go through a lot to get there on time and the least you could do is pick them up on time and treat them nice!
