Top songs with Christian messages
His music often contains religious influences, so he often sings about the themes of charity, apocalypse, sins and penance and peace through faith. He is privately convinced that he is living in some kind of end times and that there is a Bible code that can predict future events. In interviews in the past he has said that he identifies his hometown of Mannheim as the new Jerusalem and that he sees it as his calling to spread a Christian message through his music.
Naidoo is also politically involved from time to time, so in 2011 he filed criminal charges for high treason against those who, in his opinion, were responsible for the financial crisis from 2007 onwards. Among these people were, for example, the then Federal President Horst Köhler and other members of the government – but his endeavor was unsuccessful. He often said in public that the German people were not free because the two-plus-four treaty was not a valid peace treaty and made Germany an occupied country. As a consequence, in the past he has repeatedly been accused of stirring up conspiracy theories, a certain hostility to democracy, anti-capitalism and all sorts of similar anti-capitalist thoughts.
