Dunsin Oyekan reveals why he performs for free at events
Music minister Dunsin Oyekan has opened up about his unique approach to performing at events, shedding light on why he chooses not to charge for his performances.
In a recent interview with content creator Timi Agbaje, Oyekan discussed his pre-performance rituals, revealing that he relies on prayer and speaking in tongues to align himself with the spirit before singing, in contrast to secular musicians who may turn to alcohol to set the mood.
When asked about whether gospel artists should charge for their performances, Oyekan offered a thoughtful response. He emphasized that the decision depends on the consecration of the musician, suggesting that while some may feel justified in charging, his personal consecration leads him to perform for free.
Reiterating his stance, Oyekan affirmed his choice not to charge for his performances, expressing gratitude for the blessings he continues to receive from the Lord.
Oyekan’s unwavering commitment to his craft and his dedication to honoring his consecration exemplify his steadfast faith and values within the gospel music industry.
