Adekunle GoldSinger announces release date for debut album

The singer was quoted as saying he hopes in the coming years the album would still sound as fresh as the day it gets released.

Adekunle Gold has announced the release date of his album to be July 28, 2016.

The music sensation who is excited to finally release his debut album calls the album year "The Gold Season" and has this to say... "In the Gold album, I bare my soul to the world. I want people to experience what I felt while creating the album. Also, I hope that in the coming years, my music will still sound as fresh as they did the day they were released."

he singer previously revealed he would be pushing his debut album release date until early July after the Ramadan season which was expected to last from June 6, 2016 to July 5, 2016.

He made this known via a Now O’ Clock podcast hosted by Wole in an episode 1 tagged “Creatives and Criticism” with Adekunle Gold.

“I am pushing it forward a bit because of Ramadan, it was supposed to drop for June 1 before, but apparently it occurred to me that my muslim friends don’t listen to music during Ramadan, so it makes sense to push it forward because of them as well, so by God’s grace in July after Ramadan, and all of us can enjoy it together,” the singer said.

Earlier in the year, the gifted singer revealed producers like Oscar, Seyi Keys, B.Banks and expectedly in-house producer Pheelz were to work on the album while most of the songs were to be mastered and mixed by Simi who will also have songwriting credits on the album.

His music quality has earned him good recognition and reviews, and  more recently he was the award winner for Best Alternative Song for 'Sade' at The Headies 2015.

Tonto DikehSinger’s rumoured return to music is bad news for the industry Nigerians love Tonto Dikeh, but her acceptance by music enthusiasts will never happen. Reports of her return leave a foul taste in my mouth.

Sound the alarms people! Nigerian music is under attack! One of the greatest enemies of the industry is back, and wants to hurt us in ways that we cannot defend ourselves from. This enemy has risen from slumber, and is now baring its teeth, as it prepares for an attack.
That enemy is Tonto Dikeh, and Nigerian music does not want her back.

The Nollywood actress who took a break from music after the birth of her first child last year, is gearing up for a comeback into the music scene, according to multiple reports. She has been pictured hanging with Jaywon in the studio.

Nigerians love Tonto Dikeh, but her acceptance by music enthusiasts will never happen. If anything, she is viewed with disdain, for attempting to enter a field that she lacks the talent to practice, let alone succeed. Comments after comments have called out the singer at every turn, chasing her through releases and videos to hammer home the point that the lady has no business with music.

That has not appeared to faze the singer. If anything, she appears to draw strength from the torrents of abuse, coming out stronger at every turn, and performing her songs on stages that would have her. This lady, know how to tickle a crowd offline, and rub them wrong online.

 onto’s break from music came with her shift in focus to family. Mr X, as she fondly names to her husband, smothered her with love, stole her heart, and her interest in music and all things heart. She just had their first son, and in the first interview, she dropped the bombshell. Tonto has left D’banj.

Many fans regard this a good thing. Almost a blessing.

Tonto’s addition to DB Records was widely regarded as a ridiculous move by D’banj, a star whose quality of music was depreciating. Many felt he was adding a player that would prove to be more of a liability than an asset. That asset never really blossomed. Tonto’s time at DB Records can be described as ‘negligible’ at best. She offered more media attention and press, but no real gain.

Many fans would want Tonto Dikeh to absolutely quit music in all its forms. They would prefer her to raise her arms in the air, in surrender to her perceived lack of talent, accept her place as a good actress, and work at becoming better and growing organically at acting. To be clear, this isn’t personal. Tonto Dikeh is adored as an inspiration and role model to many in Nollywood. Her career has shaped lives, and been a constant source of entertainment for Nigeria.

It is simply just believed that she should be content with one art form, and leave the music alone.

Right now, that is happening is not happening, and she is not welcomed. Motherhood for all its attendant blessings, does not include the bestowing of musical talent on a wack artiste. Tonto is not welcomed, Asaba and all its movie producers have missed her. Music, not so much.
