Gospel Singer, Perez Musiq has told Andy Dosty in an interview on Daybreak Hitz that after having tasted a lot of worldly lifestyles including smoking, he had an experience that changed his life for the better.
“The truth is [that] it started with a heartbreak. Andy, don’t laugh at me. At that point, it was very painful. I’ve never told the story before but I will say it without mentioning names. Somebody in the industry was hitting on my girlfriend back then.
I brought my girlfriend to visit me in the office, when I turned, he took the lady’s number. The next time they were talking. And this was somebody that was my ‘buddy buddy.’ That’s why I don’t really make friends,” he said.
He added that he went out one day with his friend and the guy gave his phone to Perez to make a call. Then Perez saw his girlfriend’s display photo pop up on his friend’s phone.
“I opened and said ‘yo’. I just gave the phone back to him and went home. I didn’t say anything to him. I just left and I went home,” he added.
The gospel musician, however, stated that since he got born again, he has reveled in the peace and joy that comes with serving the Lord.
He has chalked a number of successes in the music industry including winning Songwriter of the Year and Best Male Vocal Performance at the 24th Ghana Music Awards.
He has to his credit, songs such as Majie Oyi, Kaafo, Walatse, Hewale Lala,among others.
