Luigi Maclean – Most vernacular songs are timeless; they aren’t crass, noisy, empty
Luigi Maclean has challenged the notion Gospel musicians who perform in vernacular are usually crass and lack substance in their lyrics.
“Most of the songs that endure through the ages – we still sing those ancient songs, and most of them are not in English or foreign languages. It is our own languages, for example Ga, Twi [and the others]. These songs have lasted so I don’t agree,” the singer-songwriter said.
Taller Dee, host of Journey to Heaven on No.1 FM, 105.3, had asked for the Gospel star’s opinion on the notion singers who perform in vernacular were crass, noisy and empty lyrically.
“Maybe the person [of that opinion] has seen some particular people… But when you see particular people, don’t paint the whole group with that broad brush. No, I don’t agree,” the Mi Le hitmaker asserted.
A Thousand Tongues (Live) is a tape of 9 songs, Luigi Maclean’s debut album, released on April 9, 2024.
