Gospel musician Brenda Onsewa has challenged artists and individuals with various talents to embrace social media as a tool for growth and positive influence in their careers.
She says platforms such as Facebook, WhatsApp and TikTok have created new opportunities for creatives to showcase their abilities beyond traditional stages.
Onsewa notes that when used correctly, social media can help artists connect with wider audiences and build meaningful support networks.
She adds that many upcoming artists are now being discovered online, making digital platforms an important space for talent development.
The gospel singer has also urged the public to change how they judge artists, especially when gospel musicians are seen sharing platforms with secular performers.
According to Onsewa, music provides a chance to reach people from all walks of life, regardless of genre or background.
She explains that appearing at mixed events does not change an artist’s values but instead broadens the reach of their message.
Onsewa believes that spreading positive messages should go beyond labels, as the goal is to touch lives without discrimination.
She further encouraged artists to remain disciplined and mindful of the content they share online.
Brenda Onsewa began her music journey in 2019 and is widely known for her song Njira, which helped establish her presence in the gospel music industry.
