Over the years ,he has established himself as one of the prominent and most listened-to gospel ministers from Nigeria as his music spans across different genres such as jazz, worship, hymns and medley.
In 2024, the Mayor of Albany, New York, honored him by declaring October 6 as “Pastor Nathaniel Bassey Day.”
