Minister Bassey believes that music is primarily, a fundamental tool in the praise and worship of God and an avenue by which He (God) relates with His people. He expresses his deep love for God through his music and features in concerts, crusades, church events and other kingdom gatherings and continues to lead many to the LORD.

Inspiring the next generation of worship leaders and gospel musicians has also been a major focus of his ministry, regularly emphasizing the concept of a “TOTAL AND COMPLETE” music minister with SPIRIT, SKILL AND CHARACTER.
