Ten years ago today, Adekunle Gold made a move that would change his life forever. He recorded the song ‘Sade’, which would later become a defining moment in his career.
It all started one evening when he was cruising in his green baby boy (his car), listening to the radio on his way home from work. As “Story of My Life” by One Direction played, he couldn’t help but be struck by its beauty.
“I thought it was beautiful,” Adekunle recalls. “I thought it was a good melody and idea. So, I pulled out my phone, recorded the melody, and left it there.”
Little did he know, that simple moment would mark the beginning of something monumental. The recording sat forgotten on his phone for a while. But years later, when Adekunle began working on an EP to reflect the stories of his life, that long-forgotten melody came rushing back to him. It was time to revisit it, and that’s when he realised just how significant it could be.
