Adekunle Gold's switch in music was necessary

During a chat with music enthusiast and social media expert, Tobi Crackit, he shared his thoughts on Adekunle Gold's growth in the music industry as well as his switch in style of music. He said:

"Adekunle Gold’s progress has been impressive to say the least. Quite impressive. I’m not really surprised on his switch in style, because listeners get bored easily. So that switch was necessary. I think the change was necessary, but being influenced by a need for international recognition might not be far-fetched even though there are people that didn’t switch styles and still got the attention."

Crackit also spoke about YBNL boss Olamide and how he is not always featured in conversations about the Big 3 artists. He said:

"Olamide is in a league of his own. He has decided to chase a path that would make him unforgettable and a folk hero rather than a temporary “big 3”. No artist today can say their story about Olamide without some sort of admiration."
