Adekunle Gold Celebrates African Royalty In Sold Out London Show

By Oluwatoyin Adeleye

Just some weeks after Wizkid sold out London’s O2 Arena in an epic concert, Adekunle Gold has proven his strength in his London fan base also in his ‘The About 30 Concert’.

The singer celebrated rich African culture in his sold out solo concert at the Indigo O2 in London.

The show saw the ‘Ire’ crooner perform with his band 79th Element in a brilliant display of African costumes and dances.

The most striking performance featured Adekunle Gold on a throne wearing a brilliant gold apparel, flanked by bodyguards while his sister gave the ‘oriki’ in Yoruba alongside a brilliant talking drummer.

Adekunle Gold took to his Instagram page @adekunlegold on Sunday, to reminisce on the event which took place on Friday night.

He wrote: “What a night! We actually sold out O2 Indigo!!!! Pinch me please. By all means, dream.”

I promised last year I was going to repeat this pose with people in the room. I did it. Speak it into existence and work towards it.
