Afrobeats gem Adekunle Gold is trending with his new single called The Life I Choose, released early on Wednesday.
The tune, available across platforms, is described as a reflection on his musical journey and the choices he made along the way, and it has so far gathered some positive reviews online.
Prior to releasing the single, the singer and songwriter had been scheduled to perform at the OVO Arena in London on March 3, 2024, with Simi, his wife, as a special guest.
