For the past few months, Willy has been under criticism from the Gospel fraternity, with allegations that his deeds don't reflect that of a Gospel artiste.

His statement “No turning back” elicited mixed reactions among his fans with a section asking him to drop the “Gospel artiste” tag so that he can perform freely without being criticized.
