YBNL vocalist and ‘Sade‘ crooner,
Adekunle Gold has revealed that he
would never have anything to do with
a babymama because the idea is
strange to him.
Speaking in a recent interview on the
current babymama trend and if in time
he would be joining the trend, the
‘Pick Up’ crooner claimed: “I love
and want a woman who is
hardworking, because I cannot stand
laziness in women. She must be smart,
pretty, and just be an Orente.”
“I don’t want it and I don’t like
the idea.”
He agreed that though not everyone
loves marriage, everyone wants a
peaceful home.
“The idea of baby mamas depends on
who are involved. I’m sure that those
involved now were not disposed to the
idea at some point. I don’t like it and
I speak for myself only. Yes, not
everyone wants to get married.
Sometimes you think about marriage
and what have been happening around
couples and you get scared. I am like,
‘no, I don’t want this’ but I know
I want marriage and want to be happy
in it. My woman has to be an Orente,
that is, a good woman. I want marriage
but not a baby Mama.”
Adekunle Gold has been linked to a
relationship with singer and music
engineer, Simi though the duo has
denied being intimate and most
recently, he was rumored to be leaving
the YBNL label in June after he releases
his ‘Gold’ album.
He also revealed how his love for songs
made him spend all his money on
studio recordings on his way to success
as a singer.
The singer said, “My mum was always
asking me why I would always use the
money that I should utilise on myself
on recording songs. I am a lover of
music and I grew up listening to a lot
of sounds. While at the Lagos
Polytechnic, I would always run to
record songs. Even when I started
working, I was like that too and my
parents didn’t understand what I was
doing. I continued this until I dropped
‘Shade’ which became a big break.
They support my vocation and are my
number one fans,”
The singer, who is also a guru on the
Photoshop computer software, also
talked about his religious beliefs,
disclosing that he became a Christian
after he following a lady to church in
2004.
“I followed a girl to church and found
that I became a Christian instead. That
was in 2004 and I have remained a
Christian ever since. My father didn’t
like the idea initially but later everyone
accepted me for who I am. I am cool
being a Christian,” he said.
