Maintaining the doors God opens for you depends on your character – Joe Mettle advises

0

Acclaimed gospel artist Joe Mettle has delivered a powerful message to aspiring musicians, underscoring the critical role of character development alongside musical talent.

In a recent address to emerging artists at the Band Experience Music Workshop in Manchester, UK, Mettle, known for his hit “Kadosh,” emphasized that while talent is essential, it is not the sole factor in achieving long-term success in the music industry.

Mettle highlighted the importance of continually refining one’s gift while also focusing on personal growth. “Talent alone is not sufficient. You must build upon the gift you have been given by continually seeking knowledge and experience from others in the field,” he explained.

He further noted that character plays a pivotal role in career longevity. “A great gift can open doors, but it is your character that will keep you in those spaces. Without strong character traits, such as integrity and humility, collaboration and opportunities can become challenging,” Mettle warned.

Encouraging musicians to balance their craft with character development, he advised, “While your gift might pave the way, only a solid character will ensure you remain and thrive. If you find yourself frequently facing issues due to personal conduct, it might be time for self-reflection.”

Mettle’s message was clear: the fusion of talent and character is essential for enduring success in the competitive world of music.
