Ek is nie verbaas nie. Soos elke Jan Rap en sy/haar maat Gospel sing sodra
hulle nie meer plate kan verkoop nie.
Miskien moet hulle ons gospelsangers ook in die tronk stop. Kan net goed
wees vir almal betrokke:))

Wel ja, baie gospel sangers is skatryk. Blykbaar is dit 'n baie winsgewende
beroep. Ek hou van iemand soos
Jannie du Toit. Hy is nie 'n gospel sanger nie, alhoewel hy ook geestelike
liedere sing. Jissie, maar daardie is 'n agtermekaar mens. Ek het vir hom
baie agting.
