From Soul to Fuji: Adekunle Gold Breathes New Life into Just The Two of Us
Adekunle Gold continues to show why he’s one of Afrobeats’ most versatile voices with his latest single, Believe. The track, released ahead of his upcoming Fuji album, beautifully samples the timeless 1980 classic Just The Two of Us by Bill Withers and Grover Washington Jr.
This clever interpolation isn’t just a throwback — it’s a reimagination. Adekunle Gold layers his signature smooth delivery and Fuji-inspired cadence over the soulful, jazzy essence of the original, creating a record that feels both nostalgic and refreshing. It’s a song that bridges eras, connecting global soul with the vibrant pulse of modern Afrobeats.
