I Never Said My Music ’ll Glorify God -Spyro
Spyro makes it clear that
he is a secular artiste.Spyro rocketed to commercial success following the success of his single ‘Who Is Your Guy’ which dominated speakers across the country and brought him international attention.
Despite gaining mainstream success as an Afrobeats act, Spyro has consistently made it clear that he is a practising Christian who intends to impact the music industry for God.
In 2023, the singer who won the collaboration of the year at the 2023 Headies Awards shared on his Instagram story that he intends to influence the industry for God by making decent evergreen music.
“I am here for a reason, I am God’s ambassador here and gradually we will take these grounds for him,” Spyro said.
The Tide Entertainment reports that Spyro’s vocal practicing of his Christian faith has led some listeners to classify him as a gospel artiste despite his music being defined by secular subjects.
In a new interview with Newsmen, Spyro emphasised that he’s not a gospel artiste and he never said his music will glorify God. Spyro clarified that while he’s a lover of God, he is not a gospel artiste.
“I do not want to be boxed as a gospel artiste. I can do whatever because that’s what music is really about – a mode of expression”.
Spyro said if he wanted to make music that would glorify God, he would make gospel. However, he’s all for decent music that portrays his Christian faith.
Whether he’s offering advice in ‘Billing’ or celebrating friendship in ‘Who Is Your Guy’ or extolling his lover in ‘Only Fine Girl’ Spyro prides himself on hisability to make decent music about whatever he wishes to communicate.
Critics claimed that her body makeover was one of the reasons she allegedly left the marriage and noted that she was still out in public with the video of her club outing.
Reacting to the allegations, Ogbodo came to Bambam’s defence. She stated that no woman would leave her marriage simply because she went under the knife. According to her, it is the man who drives a woman to leave.
The mother of three further explained that no woman willingly leaves a marriage she has invested in over many years. If a woman does leave, it is the man’s fault, possibly due to abuse that she chooses not to disclose publicly.
She added that a man must have shown the woman disrespect or failed to nurture the marriage.
Ogbodo emphasised that if a man refuses to love, protect, and give peace to his wife, the responsibility for the breakdown rests entirely with him.
It would be recalled that Uche Ogbodo also recently underwent cosmetic surgery and shared videos with her fans online,

”I want to talk about something rampant, has been rampant, and is still rampant. I just want to ask those of you who show up uninvited at events and parties, what’s your purpose? What do you aim to achieve? Then, those of you who receive a card that admits only one person and invite all your village people, don’t check with the host; you pack your people and come. What are you doing there? Why don’t you respect yourself and stay away? It’s rude, you’re a gate crasher. Respect yourself enough to stay away from places you aren’t invited to,” she said.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has unveiled dates for both the 99th Academy Awards and its landmark 100th ceremony. The back-to-back events, set for 2027 and 2028, will mark the final years of the Oscars airing on longtime broadcast partner ABC before a major shift to YouTube.
The 99th Oscars will take place on Sunday, March 14, 2027, followed by the historic 100th edition on Sunday, March 5, 2028. Both ceremonies will broadcast live at 7 p.m. ET from the iconic Dolby Theatre in Hollywood and reach audiences in over 200 territories worldwide. Looking ahead, the Academy has also confirmed a venue change, with the ceremony set to move to the Peacock Theater beginning in 2029, where it will remain through 2039.
The Tide Entertainment reports that the announcement comes amid a shifting broadcast landscape. ABC is gearing up for a packed 2027 schedule, including its debut as the home of the Grammy Awards and its first Super Bowl broadcast in over two decades. Meanwhile, this year’s Oscars telecast saw a dip in viewership, drawing 17.86 million viewers across ABC and Hulu, a 9% decline from the previous year’s five-year high.
Still, excitement around the awards remains strong. The most recent ceremony crowned Paul Thomas Anderson’s “One Battle After Another” as Best Picture, while early buzz for the upcoming season is already building. Anticipated contenders include the Ryan Gosling-led “Project Hail Mary,” Denis Villeneuve’s “Dune: Part Three” starring Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya, and Alejandro G. Iñárritu’s “Digger” featuring Tom Cruise.
No hosts have been announced yet for either ceremony, adding another layer of anticipation to the milestone events.
In addition to confirming the ceremony dates, the Academy also released its full calendar for the 2026–2027 awards season, outlining key milestones from the eligibility period beginning January 1, 2026, to nominations voting in January 2027, and final voting in early March.
