Bruz Newton, a gospel artiste and dancer is between a hard place and a rock after expressing his predicament of even not knowing how is going to pay his rent even though he had a show.

Taking to Instagram, defeated Bruz Newton opened up how the Church who are supposed to always show them the way are in a subtle way suffocating him on his craft as a musician in the gospel.

Bruz Newton opened up revealing that he got paid only 6,100 Kenyan Shillings only for a show that saw him perform this past weekend with his team and he doesn’t even know how to split with them the meager pay that he received from the Church that he won’t disclose.

“… We are told not to conform to the world and the only place that keeps us alive and fed is the world. God, I look up to you, but your children are suffocating us in your name. How long shall we suffer, by being told that comprising our gifts is being humble and patient.” He wrote in part.

Adding;

“I am not complaining but I don’t think I have the strength to continue. I haven’t paid my rent and some few bills. How do I even share this with my team?”.

Bruz Newton confessed that he is no longer safe. He shared what he is currently going through in the hands of the “destiny connectors” who tells him not to conform to the world even though the world is where everybody gets what’s theirs.

This is what was sent to me today, for the show we performed this weekend. To cater for my team and our transportation to and from.

Dear Lord, what will I tell my kids in years to come? Honestly, I no longer feel safe. I am getting tired of being told to pray, fast and have faith and the destiny connectors are the ones, doing this to us.

We are told not to conform to the world and the only place that keeps us alive and fed is the world.

God, I look up to you, but your children are suffocating us in your name. How long shall we suffer, by being told that comprising our gifts is being humble and patient.

I am a Pan-Afrikanist to the core and love to let the world know what they are missing in Africa. I might do that through music and some interesting posts from time to time so please bare with me.

I will always be real though, that's a guarantee.
