Veteran Ghanaian gospel artist Rev. Obaapa Christy has taken TikTok by storm with her son, but not for the reasons that fans are accustomed to. The veteran gospel artist is causing a stir after a video of her and her son passionately jamming to *”Soma Obi“* — a track on Black Sherif’s latest album *”Iron Boy“* — surfaced online.
The shock video has triggered intense debate and surprise on social media, especially among netizens who are questioning the appropriateness of a gospel artiste engaging in secular music so openly.
TikTok users have flooded the comment section with opinion divided, as some are commending her audacity, while others are questioning whether Obaapa Christy is still firmly in gospel music or gradually drifting into the secular zone.

Whether it was a simple mother-son bonding experience or a reflection of a broader trend of musical tolerance, one thing is certain — Rev. Obaapa Christy knows how to get the internet talking.
