Let’s talk about no accountability. If he were an athlete, CEO, or just a regular worker, he’d have to own up to the photo and apologize to his public and the public of his employers. God doesn’t get that same respect?! Be a man! Be an adult. Even if it was unintentional it still happened.
As an active instagram poster, ive NEVER posted anything by accident. Also why was he taking a nude photo? None of it makes sense and what's more shocking is that he feels nothing about it. This guy is just waiting to launch is secular music career.
As a Christian singer, this interview was very sad to hear. In the words of Mahalia Jackson, I want to live the life I sing about. I make a conscious choice to pick Jesus daily. It's a lifestyle and not an act. 😢
21:33 I love Gospel music too but it’s not about how it makes us feel. It’s about the truth of God’s Word and His works. It’s really about how it makes Him feel. Are we pleasing Him with our worship?
This man took zero accountability for his decisions and actions. This interview didn't help Dante in any way. It just exposed to the world how arrogant and unrepentant he really is.
There’s no way! 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ You accidentally posted a nude picture? Well seems like the rest of Maverick City is on the same path! Why does a worship group collab with GloRilla?? 👀👀👀👀👀 If Jamal is the voice of reason in the conversation you have a MAJOR problem!!! 🤦🏼♀️
Honestly after what happened to Adrianne from the cheetah girls and other stars who got their phones hacked, no one and I mean no internet user should have nude photos at all ever.
Ummm… as a married man, I enjoy my wife surprising me. I don’t save them because we understand hackers are real. But there’s nothing wrong with your spouse sending photos to each other
Pastor Jamal did ask good questions that helped Dante open up but Dante isn’t ready. He’s on his own mindset and only God can do the work if Dante allows.
Jamal reminds me of spike, from Gremlins. The lead gremlin with the Mohawk? He really does. But no I don’t believe he accidentally posted it. If he had, he is so arrogant, I find it hard to believe it wasn’t supposed to be seen by anyone. I’ve heard the name Maverick City because of all the talk on Christian shows/ podcasts talking about their behavior etc as being “unchristian”. But this guy I know nothing about. This is. First impressions thing for me. And arrogant is how I’d describe him. Arrogant and unrepentant.
Dante Bowe was never a real christian he did the same thing what Amy Grant and Kirk Franklin have done they see the gospel of Jesus as a business. And there are many more who have done this. And I would not be surprised if Dante Bowe comes out as gay that statement he made during a Grammy Awards Show that he wants to see lil Nas x and see him perform shows how Dante Bowe thinks. And let this be clear Christians a lot of these so called gospel artists quite a few of them are gay or bisexual but they don't put their trust in Jesus but in themselves and the world.
He doesn't like answering direct questions, he's prideful, self centered, rebellious, and doesn't like authority. Not traits of a Christian. But it was also said, the group wasn't a Christian group.
@AmbiLane998 In reading about his personal history, his parents were once drug dealers and he experienced being molested by a church elder. I would say he needs therapy to understand the duality of life he has endured.
Worship music today is a scam. The majority are literally unsaved singers and musicians who couldn’t make it on the other side, who quickly realized their is money to be made when I take my corny love song and add the name of Jesus to it! “They praise HIM with their lips but their heart is far from HIM” 😡😡😡
I disagree about the shower take, it is actually quite common for gym goers to take pictures of themselves especially after the shower. I've done it, and many of my friends do it too and we all gym regularly. It can be narcissistic but it also can be just a way to compare yourself and record how your body changes. P.s. though the photos are not nude shots.
I am convinced at this point that all Christian musicians need to stay off the road. Too many are doing things they have no business doing. You can still make good music, but not to the point that true accountable is missing. This stuff needs to stop.
He was in a really good mood when he posted the photo😂.. you don’t accidentally do crazy stuff like that. I think that was some type of ritual… also *Ain’t Nobody Came To See You Otis*
It's really sad to see Dante take no accountability. It's very weird and proud behaviour. He got Jamal Bryant, the wolf making biblical sense. The times we live in man 🤣🤣🤣
He is so 3:22 wrong. The other members just have a more collaborative spirit. They all have solo projects not just him and if what he said was true, the group would have folded after he left. He needs to stop, drop, and roll.
Maverick lifestyle wasn't about Jesus; they sung the music but don't live the lifestyle. That's what I heard. This interview is 💔. You know the tree by the fruit. He isn't a Christian. My X husband was a Gospel musician and I found out he had multiple affairs & I got out FAST, otherwise, he wouldn't have stopped. * this is too much.
Why is Jamal so flashy all the time?! He is a man in his 50s .Is he ever going to grow up? When Jamal is the voice of reason, you know the guess is bad.
Jamal is great at calling out others but for some reason he can’t see himself. I couldn’t watch this. It’s to much fake in one interview I can’t stomach it.
In trying to out the group, he exposed himself. He said he'd do about 8 of like 27 dates (lack of commitment) but it seems they were even accommodating him. Till the public scandals. But he trying to make it sound like he was a scapegoat cos of the nudes, when err'body else is bad. Sir, where is your accountability?
the whole thing about bands breaking up is such a dishonest argument. more bands break up than stay together, regardless of race. that’s such a propagandised take. awful!
8:03 It’s not necessarily narcissism - it’s very common for people who workout seriously to take body photos of themselves as a way to track their progress. Most people will probably do it about once a week. But it doesn’t really seem to make sense that he would have taken the photo using Instagram because “the camera is better” - there are lots of apps that offer the same kind of filter effects.
8:04 he sounds like he's lying- plus the sunglasses in a studio that doesn't have natural light to hide his eyes. His body language definitely screams "im lying".
He was on the road to self righteous and which leads to prideful, egotistical actions. The fall was coming but he could not notice the red flags because he was riding the wave of fame. He can still save his soul if he ask for transformation and renewal of the his mind and heart. He needs to be humbled.
His explanation is so far fetched it might well be true! However, as a worship leader he should have a watch over that prideful attitude. All I’m hearing is a pop star. No glory to God, no humility. May he see the error of his ways before it’s too late. He is trying to defend himself by talking about what others have done.
It seemed that they took him out due to high morals and he was not aligning with their moral values, but on the other side, currently, they are collaborating with Will Smith and Glorilla. Chandler Moore was caught in a controversy when he was grinding on his wife at their wedding. Now most people would argue, well that's his wife, he can grind on her all day if he wants to. In the picture she was bent over and it looks like he was holding her in position and a bit of humping. Did that photo need to be shared- no. Dante has a body as we all do, I'm not commenting on his physique, but as a human, he has a human body and showed his body. Did that picture need to be shown, definitely not. Also we don't know how Chandler Moore acts behind the scenes, yet or any of them. One thing that is evident, based off of what we have been seeing with alot of singers and pastors in the Christian world, lately, is that these people are people and they are likely to make mistakes that do not line up with the word of God. So when Maverick City broke up with him, I know I was one of those people that thought, ok, they are really all about God, and making sure that their actions align up with His Godly principles, but their actions show that they are loosening up a bit now. Also, they are rising more in popularity and fame that goes beyond the Christian world, so we don't know what may come out in the future or what they may do in the future with more of the recognition they are receiving. Dante is just more open about some things and some people are just better at hiding their true nature. Do I think he did a bad job on this interview yes, the shades, the answers, some were not truthful, but I think there was egos on both sides and I don't think that one side was right or wrong. He obviously had less power in the group. As a person who's been involved in worship in a christian, church setting, I have seen the egos and I have seen people get kicked out for the same thing that the other leaders may be doing, but because that other leader has more say- so, they can get by with alot. Humanity keeps humaning.
This whole interview was BIG 🧢 he has a lot of young followers and his attitude about his nude picture, arrogant demeanor, and outright disobedience in the name of ‘branching out’ is too lackadaisical. It’s bad ministry. His lack of wisdom indicates that he doesn’t understand the true fear of the Lord. God is so patient ❤
At 8:27 is that nail polish on his fingernail! Choose this day who you will serve as for me and my family we choose YAH. You can not have the Holy Spirit and make certain choices. Prayers are needed because what is leading him is not Yah. He is not giving the fruits of the spirits but the opposite prideful boastful self centered and much more. I pray for him. This is why no matter how popular a Christian song discernment the spirit behind it matters.
Two things: Jamal Bryant, knowing how crazy this dude is…is actually speaking sense which is rare and where Dante went wrong. 2: Dante proved that Maverick is nothing but a culture vulture and only really doing music cause it pays the bills, NOT BECAUSE they are doing it for Christ. Dante PROVED Maverick City ain’t even ABOUT MINISTRY. That says a lot! Maverick is NOT CHRISTIAN. Period. SMH Why to people even play their music?? Smh.
I didn't think Maverick City was a "group." To me, they were a collective of individual musicians who came together & made music under the name Maverick City. But not an actual cohesive group.
From the first 5 mins, it's obvious that this music group were singing Gospel for money alone. They're weren't a Christian group who were singing for God in worship and putting God at the centre of everything. Their motivation wasn't to bring glory to God but to make money. That's why this guy took pics of his naked body. The words they sang meant nothing.
J.B. should take his own advice. How he invites Kamala Harris to his church and encourage others to vote for her. Seriously the irony of J.B. is just crazy to me.
Basically he believes in some of the ideas of the Bible but he doesn’t really believe in the Bible. He’s a worse off MLK, a nominal-Christian. To be honest I don’t know that I believe he is a Christian. The fruit of his life says otherwise. This is the issue with these Christian singers. They are out singing and carrying on but they are not apart of a local church. They are not being pastored. There’s no discipleship in their lives.
Sir, just say you wanted an out without asking for an out so you did some typa mess to get kicked out to fit the narative that they are jealous of you or to spite someone😂😂 This was a job for yall. There's no Jesus in anything so we arent surprised😅😅 2 🤭
Lots of CAP🧢 I take pics with Instagram many times , first off - you shouldn’t be taking naked pics w an IG camera … weird but even still YOU KNOW ITS HARD TO ACCIDENTALLY POST. Boy just say you wanted to post it - you already got the repercussions of the action 🤌🏽 lol could be true but I highly doubt it!
Let’s talk about no accountability. If he were an athlete, CEO, or just a regular worker, he’d have to own up to the photo and apologize to his public and the public of his employers.
God doesn’t get that same respect?!
Be a man! Be an adult.
Even if it was unintentional it still happened.
True
Jamal did a good interview which is scary in itself. It shows how Dante needs prayers and guidance
You know your bad when Jamal Bryant is making sense

Exactly! That’s really interesting that Bryant is pushing pack on what Bowe is saying.
I mean, as a Christian, why do you even have nude photos, even if it’s yourself in the picture?
Honestly after what happened to Adrianne from the cheetah girls and other stars who got their phones hacked, no one and I mean no internet user should have nude photos at all ever.
Exactly….
Good question.
Ummm… as a married man, I enjoy my wife surprising me. I don’t save them because we understand hackers are real. But there’s nothing wrong with your spouse sending photos to each other

Lol @ the "allegedly" for Maverick City being a Christian group.. You're not wrong
Karma? Sir Christians don't believe in karma....
Thanks for sharing 🙌🏽🤩
He doesn't like answering direct questions, he's prideful, self centered, rebellious, and doesn't like authority.
Not traits of a Christian. But it was also said, the group wasn't a Christian group.

This is a disaster. We must hold ourselves to a higher, godly standard. May God help Dante.

meanwhile theres a breakdown of that photo in the bathroom that its a half bath with no shower… anyway.. back to what I was doing..
He said it like taking nude pics was okay 🤦🏾♀️
Exactly 🤦🏿♂️
