Nigerian singer, Adekunle Gold has given social media users an explanation on why he might not have fans like Burna boy, Wizkid and Davido.
In a recent newsletter sent to fans, he said; “As I`ve journeyed through my growth and evolution, my friends will tell you that every dime I`ve made on this thing has gone right back into it. I`m thankful for friends and family who have even loaned me their hard-earned money for the sake of my dreams.
There were days where the fans were plenty but the pocket was very empty and this wasn`t too long ago. Man I worked so hard to push myself and my creativity, yes Kehinde, I know you get me, but most people didn`t, I actually can`t count the amount of no`s I got. The feeling of being constantly overlooked, undercooked, disrespected and maligned is not a pleasant one.
Don`t let anyone cheat you out of a struggle or a hard experience, ma fi ago alago sise, don`t let social nonsense rush your process. Struggle, cry, feel the depths of your pain. FEEL IT! It`s only then that you are able to recognize when times are good.”
