Singer Adekunle Gold was the first guest on the pilot episode of British-Nigerian journalist, Tobi Rachel Akingbade‘s “Yellow Cup Podcast”. The artiste shared his weirdest experience with a fan; his super private wedding with Simi; and upcoming album.
On Beyoncé’s new album, he said; “I think it’s incredible. We’ve been making our unique sound for the longest time. It feels good that people are paying more attention. Shoutout to people that opened the way for us to get our sound out. Now is the time to fly. There are lots of opportunities to get our music out there. I’m really proud of everyone on that album.”
Talking about his private wedding, he shared; “Honestly, I feel like you should only give people. You should only let people know what you want them to know. I’ve said it before, if I wasn’t a celebrity – if I wasn’t famous right? – I think I’ll still be like this. There’s only a certain part of my life that I want to put out there and as much as people want to know so much, people should also respect the fact that it’s a decision that I personally make and that she made herself. Just wish us well and know that we are doing amazing things. The extra things are never necessary.”
On plans for a new album, the artiste commented; “I’m going to say AG2019 has been an interesting year for me. I’ve released singles that are way different from the things I used to do before. Shout out to everyone that streamed Before You Wake Up and Kelegbe Megbe. I’m releasing a new single very soon and then I am also releasing an album this year and it is a very interesting one. So for my existing friends, I say ‘hold on tight’ and for the new people I say ‘welcome’.”
