Adekunle Gold has expressed concerns over the Nigerian music industry’s leadership, stating that it is dominated by individuals who lack a genuine understanding and appreciation of music.
This, he argues, has led to the overshadowing of artists, producers, and creatives by non-music oriented individuals.
Adekunle Gold took to his X handle to lament the state of the industry, saying: “People who have no business leading music conversations are now controlling and destroying the industry… When the wrong people lead the conversation, they push the wrong narratives. That’s why real talent is overlooked, and mediocrity thrives.”
