How Adekunle Gold evolved from a Neo-Folk Music Maestro who stole our hearts with his ‘local’ but sophisticated sound to an artist so confident in himself he blends his sound with foreign elements is a history maker. In the last few months, we’ve seen him diversify in ways that are noteworthy, including the release of some EDM led remixes to his hit single; Ire and the sound potent; Before You Wake Up.
This month, he diversifies further with the release of the video for Before You Wake Up which follows a plot uncommon to Adekunle Gold’s normal dramatic style – one that exactly mirrors the narrative told in the song and carries the same breezy aura he inspires in the song.
Before You Wake Up is only but a mile marker in a journey through this year that promises to be music filled.
