Renowned Rwandan musician Ngabo Medard Jobert, popularly known as Meddy, has recently embraced a spiritual journey that has left many of his fans and followers wondering about the future of his music career. Known for his romantic hits and impressive success, Meddy has shifted his focus to gospel music, emphasizing worship and praise.
Meddy's musical journey began in 2008, and over the years, he achieved significant fame and wealth. However, by 2018, he felt a growing discontent despite his success, leading him to reassess his life’s direction.
In 2022, Meddy announced his decision to
leave behind secular music, including songs about love, which he felt were
often self-centered. Instead, he chose to dedicate his talents to gospel music,
aiming to inspire and uplift others.
This transition has been
met with mixed reactions. While some fans feel a sense of loss, others are
inspired by his bold move. Meddy's YouTube channel, with 1.38 million
subscribers, has seen impressive engagement, particularly with his song
"Slowly," which has over 102 million views. His gospel tracks, such
as "Holy Spirit" and "Ntawamusimbura," also receive
significant attention, reflecting his strong following.
Looking ahead, Meddy is
expected to continue his gospel music journey, with potential new releases in
2025. Fans eagerly anticipate his next steps, both in Rwanda and beyond, as he
blends his artistic talents with his newfound spiritual mission.
