By Tosin Clegg

British Nigerian gospel worship leader and music producer, Aaron T. Aaron has called on emerging artistes to embrace leadership training to cultivate excellence and impact in the gospel music industry.

In a recent media statement, he stated that developing strong leadership skills is essential for young artistes to navigate the music industry successfully, build sustainable careers, and positively influence their communities through their craft.

“Leadership in ministry and music is not optional,” he said. “Young artistes must invest in their growth not just musically, but in character, vision, and the ability to lead others effectively.”

Aaron, who has been actively involved in gospel music and worship ministry for over a decade, has built a reputation for blending creativity with spiritual expression.

“My work spans across creativity and spiritual expression crafting sounds, leading worship atmospheres, and producing music that inspires people to encounter God in a real and transformative way,” he explained in the statement.

He emphasized that his journey began in the church, where worship was not just an activity but a lifestyle. “From a young age, I felt drawn to music as a language God used to shape me,” Aaron shared.

He started in the choir, wrote songs, experimented with sounds, and gradually moved into leading worship and producing music.

Over the years, Aaron has impacted the gospel music industry in multiple ways, including creating authentic worship experiences, mentoring young artistes, innovating in sound and production, and producing music that reaches audiences globally.

“Helping younger artistes find their voice, refine their sound, and develop excellence in ministry is a responsibility I take seriously,” he said.

As a certified John Maxwell speaker, coach, and trainer, Aaron has mentored worship leaders and creatives through his record label, DOXAZO, which operates on Christian ethics and promotes discipleship alongside artistry.

His global influence includes performances across Africa, Europe, North America, and the Middle East, featuring at events such as the BBC Proms: Gospel Edition at the Royal Albert Hall and the Apollo London alongside Tim Hughes.

Aaron highlighted in his statement three core principles that shape his life and work: intimacy with God, excellence and discipline, and service with humility.

“Consistency, practice, and quality underpin sustainable success, while serving others keeps you grounded and expands your impact,” he asserts.

With a distinctive sound that fuses African and Western contemporary influences, Aaron continues to bridge cultural gaps in worship, uniting audiences worldwide through his music and leadership.

His brand stands on authenticity, spiritual depth, and a commitment to excellence, with the T in his name Tochukwu meaning “to praise God,” reflecting the essence of his identity and mission.
