In a heartwarming expression of admiration, gospel singer Gabie Ntaate has urged critics to avoid drawing comparisons between her and the veteran singer Judith Babirye.
Over the years, speculation has suggested that Ntaate took over Babirye’s mantle during the latter’s hiatus from the music scene.
Ntaate, however, vehemently rejects such comparisons, emphasizing that both she and Babirye are serving God in their unique ways and for the same purpose.
The talented artist stresses that fulfilling her calling doesn’t require replacing anyone; she is merely following the destined path laid out for her.
The gospel artist underscores that the purpose is not to engage in competition for earthly recognition or to establish superiority. While appreciative of the support she receives, Ntaate finds it disheartening to think that her success might be perceived as overshadowing someone else’s anointing.
Formerly a presenter on Spark TV, Ntaate seeks recognition for her individual talents and contributions rather than being constantly measured against Judith Babirye.
Her hope is that critics and fans alike will appreciate and support each artist for their unique gifts, recognizing the positive impact they bring to the gospel music industry.
In a gracious tribute, Ntaate extends heartfelt words to Judith Babirye, acknowledging her as a “dear big sister” who has served God and the community with utmost dedication.
Ntaate highlights the invaluable support and wisdom she has received from Babirye, emphasizing the latter’s role in helping individuals draw closer to Christ.
Expressing deep gratitude for the late-night prayers and unwavering support, Ntaate recognizes Babirye as a blessing not only to her but to many others. The tribute concludes with a powerful acknowledgment of Babirye’s status as a great worshiper, with a prayer for God to be exalted in her forever.
The message resonates with a plea for mutual respect, understanding, and celebration of individual journeys within the gospel music realm.
“My dearest big sister Judith Babirye I’m firstly very privileged to have served the God and land you served and serve, you already know that I have never kept silent in accordance to what high esteem I hold you in.
