Popular Gospel singer, Tope Alabi has got something big on the way for all her fans in the gospel circle and beyond as she has revealed she is currently working on a movie titled, The Weight
Speaking on her roles in the movie production to Saturday PUNCH, Alabi said she doubles as an actor and the producer of the movie. “I played the role of a lady called Wuraola.”
On what inspired the project, “The story is inspired by the Holy Spirit. Whatever a child of God does must be inspired by the Holy Spirit. I felt God wanted me to shoot a Christian movie to win more souls to Christ because souls are perishing due to lack of knowledge,” she stated.
The singer, when asked on her new acting job interfering with her music career, she said “It wouldn’t interfere with my music career. Acting can never be my full-time career.”
“It is just going to be once in a while. Music is my main career and that is the only thing I can do full time. Shooting a movie can’t stop my ministration. My music career is till Jesus comes,” she said.
On her experience shooting the movie, she said, “It was not stressful at all. As a matter of fact, it was awesome gathering music ministers together because they made up my cast. All they do is singing but I got to see them in another light.”
As the singer is set to hold her annual Praise the Almighty concert, tomorrow (Sunday). She said, “So many things are going to be different about it. This is the ninth year of praising God tirelessly and with full hearts of gratitude.
