    "It's not about the money," said Durban born gospel star Lungile Sityana soon after the launch of his second album, "Kepha Ngale" – 'but the other side'. "You won't survive in the gospel industry if you don't practise what you preach."

    "It's not about the money," said Durban born gospel star Lungile Sityana soon after the launch of his second album, "Kepha Ngale" – 'but the other side'. "You won't survive in the gospel industry if you don't practise what you preach."

    Sityana was speaking on Radio Grahamstown's popular "City Of Saints Drive Show" to promote his new 12-track album, which is flying off store shelves coutrywide. He and manager/producer Lucky Cecil Shongwe were in Grahamstown to promote his new 12-track album, "Kepha Ngale" – 'but the other side' – hot from its launch in East London's Orient Theatre last weekend.

    There, to much fanfare, guest artists Mzwakhe Myeni, Ntondozi G. Group, Thabile Myeni, Lungiswa Sandlana, Stand , Malibongwe Fololo and Nolitha Langa shared the stage with Sityana. “Lungile is a workaholic," said Shongwe, "and when he wants to sing, you won't stop him.

    In one week we sold 500 CDs. Lungile does not only sing: composing and arranging are also part of his job,” said Shongwe. Sityana, whose love for music started as a church chorister, feels he owes his talent to his faith. "I love God very much, He gave me the voice so that I could preach his message in music,” he said. 

    Radio Grahamstown listeners Nandipha Kondile (U Street), Antony Nkomfana (Xolani) and Phunyezwa Gadu (Vukani) each won a "Kepha Ngale" CD.
