Maverick City Music Founder Norman Gyamfi Reveals Why Kids Don't Go TO Church Anymore

Maverick City Music Founder Norman Gyamfi Reveals Why Kids Don't Go TO Church Anymore This clip is from an episode of Earn Your Leisure, where Kirk Franklin and Norman Gyamfi sat down with Rashad Bilal and Troy Millings for a powerful conversation that bridges faith, culture, and business. They shared the story of how their partnership began and why their mission goes far beyond music. Norman reveals how a lack of marketing in the gospel industry motivated him to get involved, and he broke down the business behind Insignia Assets. Kirk opened up about his past experiences working with family and friends, and the hard lessons he learned from signing a bad record deal. Together, they explored the current state of gospel music—its struggles with cultural relevance, outdated record structures, and slow adaptation to streaming. Kirk and Norman reflected on whether today’s generation is searching for a new kind of spirituality and whether the church is meeting them where they are. They discussed the impact of artificial intelligence on music and faith, questioning if technology could ever replace real authenticity or even spiritual leadership. This conversation went deep on themes of judgment, power, and how the Black church has both uplifted and, at times, weaponized religion. Kirk questioned whether being held to a higher standard has truly benefited him, while Norman reminded us why we should never lose hope in humanity. This episode was raw, honest, and necessary for anyone thinking critically about the intersection of faith, leadership, and legacy. #EarnYourLeisure #KirkFranklin #NormanGyamfi #GospelMusic #FaithAndBusiness #ChristianityToday #BlackChurch #MusicIndustry #Entrepreneurship #Spirituality #CulturalRelevance #EYL Click like.
