Music star, Kenny Saint Best who was recently ordained as a Pastor at Anselm Madubuko’s New Anointing Revival Assembly has now talked about her new title in this punch newspaper interview!
“My
ordination and career cannot clash because I do gospel music. I am a
minister of God through my music and that is what people know me for.
Towards the end of last year, I had a worship concert and it was like a
re-introduction of myself going back into the ministry.

I
have always been doing gospel music and sometimes, I do street gospel
music, songs that people on the streets can relate to and listen to
without going to church. My ordination does not disturb my career; the
only thing is that I would be doing more of worship songs than street
gospel music,” she said.

Even
though she is one of the very few gospel artistes that feature secular
artistes in Nigeria, KSB said that would never turn her to become a
secular artiste.

“I
have never done secular music, if you doubt me, go and listen to my
songs. It has never happened. If you are referring to my song with Terry
G, it was a song of testimonies. If you listen to my song, ‘Sugar
Sugar,’ featuring MI, it was also a street gospel music. Even my song
with the late Da Grin, ‘Turn me Around,’ it was a song of prayers and Da
Grin’s verse on the song was filled with prayer points,”

“When
I was in the UK, I went to the school of ministry and when I got back
to Nigeria, I attended the Redeemed Christian Church of God and went for
a post graduate course in Theology in 1997. You cannot do all of these
without having it in mind that you want to become a minister of God
someday. After my course, I was posted to be an assistant pastor and I
served in that capacity for about six months. I have been pastoring for
over 20 years but it is not something I like to share with the public,”
KSB said.
