Gospel musician DJ Krowbar, also known as Fredrick Karumba, recently discussed why he decided not to collaborate with Christian media outlets despite having a solid commitment to Christianity.

Krowbar provided essential facts about his professional background and philosophical views in an interview with Cate Rira for her podcast POV.

Crowbar entered the music business in 2004 at the age of just 19.

He has received praise and admiration over the years for his exceptional skill as a DJ.

In particular, he described how a beer business had sponsored the Pilsner Mfalme DJ competition in 2008, where he had won the Best DJ prize.

"It was a media nightmare for EABL when I won the Pilsner Mfalme DJ competition in 2008," Krowbar said.

"I went into the tournament knowing I wouldn't play any secular songs. EABL was looking for the top DJ to promote their Pilsner brand.

I signed up to play gospel music and won, to everyone's astonishment. They felt they would have much to explain if they gave someone else the award. So I joined them on their promotional tour.

Despite being a dedicated gospel musician, Krowbar voiced his unwillingness to collaborate with gospel media outlets, stating that he would rather be on the ground and reach out to people outside the Christian community.

Krowbar declared, "I'm called for those people over there."


"I am called to care for people; I am not called to shepherd Christians.

I preach the gospel. That is why I have never collaborated with a Christian media outlet despite having had offers. I decline them.

There is a natural connection when I DJ in these settings. As a believer, I know that there are procedures for entering clubs.

Krowbar elaborated on his strategy for performing in places of non-religion, saying, "You have to acquire authority in that club.

I always travel in groups of at least three. I pray and reclaim the stage before I perform in a club, reminding myself that I am a representative of God.

I've experienced rejection and even jeers, but such things helped me grow a thick skin.
