“You followed Jay Z to be blamephous” Adekunle Gold earns massive backlash over Soundtrack on Hollywood film
Nigerian singer, Adekunle Gold has come under heavy criticism over his Soundtrack on Hollywood’s film, The Book of Clarence.

The movie has however received tons of backlash from netizens calling it blasphemous and dragging the singer.

One Queen Cilia wrote, ‘Very controversial, another way the West restructured an important tale and culture to suit their taste (the American behavior). I respect Art so I’ll see the movie to be able to give my opinion and have a proper conversation about it if it arises. But a defamation will not be accepted

Adekunle Gold isn’t the only celebrity who has received backlash from the Christian community.
Weeks back, socialite, Mike Nwogu better known as Pretty Mike had elicited anger from Christians with his mockery of the savior, Jesus Christ at a wedding ceremony.
The socialite had entered the wedding venue with a lady dressed like Jesus carrying a cross along with other females, cladded in a bikini who played the role of the Pharisees and Sadducees who were beating Jesus.
Sharing the disturbing video on his Instagram page, he avowed that the world would have been better if Jesus was a woman.
However, Pretty Mike’s recent display didn’t sit well with Christians.
Celebrity stylist Toyin Lawani had also come under heavy criticism over her outfit at the movie premiere of Toyin Abraham’s film “The Prophetess”.
As usual, Toyin Lawani stunned in a dramatic catholic rope that many Nigerians frowned at as portraying Christianity in the bad limelight.
Many social media users dragged the actress for blasphemy Christianity and dared her to try such with a Muslim outfit as she would not go scot-free.
