The church has quietly become the biggest talent pipeline the secular music industry has and nobody wants to talk about it.
From vocalists to instrumentalists, producers to songwriters, many global artists first discovered and developed their gifts in church spaces.
So the question is not simply why people leave.
The deeper question is whether the church has built enough structure, vision and opportunities for creatives called beyond the four walls.

Sexual experience is a scam and people have been buying it for too long. The argument that virgins are walking into marriage at a disadvantage doesn’t hold up the moment you slow down and ask questions. Everyone starts as a novice. Compatibility isn’t something you find, it’s something you build. With your person. ✨
Save this. Share it. Tag someone who needs the reminder.

It’s hard to ignore the realities we face daily as Nigerians, the fact that being born somewhere can define your experience in life is one of those things you are confronted with daily.
We’ve been sold a narrative that life revolves around one thing, but the math just doesn't add up. When you strip away the music videos, the rom-coms, and the marketing, the actual footprint of sex in a human life is remarkably small.
We are living in a culture that has "collapsed its frame of reference" around an activity that takes up roughly 4 to 6 hours out of 8,760 in a year. We’ve been conditioned to treat a sacred, life-creating act as a casual hobby, a "recreation" instead of a "reproduction."
When real life hits, when you're reaching for hope, faith, or survival this isn't the thing that sustains you. The act isn't the problem; the pedestal we've put it on is.
Is it time to re-evaluate the "whole point" of our culture? Do you think we’ve over-amplified the importance of sex in our daily culture?
Does the data change how you view the "narrative" we're all being sold?

Spotify x Neon Adejo "Hands"
We produced this intimate rollout video content announcing the release of Neon Adejo's latest album "Sonship" in collaboration with Spotify Africa.
Spotify shared a very detailed brief and we matched the energy, developing a super detailed production plan that ensured Spotify and the artist visually understood exactly what we intended to shoot from start to finish (breakdown coming soon).

When Kanye West walked into the church, we didn’t see a man in need of healing; we saw a "win" for our side. We traded the quiet, messy work of discipleship for the loud, shiny allure of a platform.
The world held him to a higher standard than the church did. While they asked for proof of change, we just asked for a performance. That’s not grace,it’s neglect.
What’s your take? When a celebrity "finds God," should the church immediately give them a microphone, or should we be the ones to pull them away from the cameras?

I saw this experience that was open to the public and decided to go check it out. Turns out their Government is using it to communicate the vision, for the future of the country.
This is how countries are built. In Nigeria, there is no collective vision, we do not know what the leaders are trying to achieve! The only time you hear the word “Vision” is during elections💔
God isn't bothered by the little tweaks. Why are you?
If the story points people back to the Father, does the "how" matter as much as the "Who"?
It’s time to let the storytellers breathe so the Story can actually reach people.
What’s your take? Do "creative liberties" in Bible movies help you connect with the Word, or do they distract you?
