Gospel artist Tim Godfrey recently stirred controversy after releasing his latest track, Infinity, featuring Nigerian singer Oxlade.
Following the song’s release, some of the gospel star’s fans expressed disappointment, questioning his decision to collaborate with an artist who had previously been involved in a public scandal.
Critics referenced Oxlade’s leaked intimate video, arguing that the partnership contradicted the moral standards expected in gospel music. Many suggested that Tim could have chosen someone “more suitable” for the message he wanted to share.
Despite the online backlash, the singer chose to remain silent for several days as conversations about the collaboration continued to grow. Eventually, he decided to address the issue directly.
Breaking his silence, Tim Godfrey released an emotional open letter titled “To the Labeled.” In the heartfelt message, he reached out to people who have been judged, rejected, or excluded because of how they look, live, or express themselves.
He revealed that he understands what it feels like to be misunderstood, saying he too has been called “worldly,” “rebellious,” and “unspiritual.” The gospel artist emphasized that Jesus never rejected anyone, reminding believers that “He sat with the broken, touched the untouchable, and called the forgotten family.”
Tim’s message struck a chord with many who feel alienated by rigid religious standards. He reminded them that grace is not defined by appearance or reputation, adding: “You may have tattoos or dreads that make them stare, but neither did Jesus fit the religious image.”
In closing, the singer announced that his upcoming project, No Label, would be released on October 31, 2025. He described it as more than just a musical album a movement dedicated to everyone who has ever been “boxed, branded, or broken.”
According to Tim, No Label carries a message of freedom, love, and acceptance, challenging the belief that faith must look or sound a certain way.
He ended his letter with a powerful statement: “Jesus didn’t come for the perfect. He came for the real.”
Since the release of his message, many fans have commended Tim Godfrey for his openness and praised him for bringing a refreshing and inclusive perspective to gospel music.
