Nigerian singer, Adekunle Almoruf Kosoko popularly known as Adekunle Gold or AG Baby, has revealed his next project “Tequila Ever After” and what inspired the songs.
He disclosed this in a newsletter shared with his fans on Monday.
“How did we even get to Tio Tequila? I know some of you have been wondering. It all started with one shot of tequila. I was in the studio sometime early 2022, and I was in a terrible mood that day. Then someone offered me tequila. I had tequila for the first time ever, and my mood changed. I felt uplifted, energetic, and happy.
“I kept thinking, “What the heck is this?” That studio session ended on such a high note. I stopped being anxious and upset. My mind became clear, and I wrote a beautiful song. “Tio” in Spanish means uncle, Mr., or guy. I decided that day my alias will be Tio Tequila.
“That feeling is what I decided to carry into all of my studio sessions after that day. I wrote all the songs on my next album with an open mind, energetic spirit, and a happy heart. I’m done being anxious or worried about life. I’m ready to start enjoying and celebrating my wins, ready to start living unapologetically. I have reached my “Tequila Ever After,” and I want you to reach the same.
“…my next album is called “TEQUILA EVER AFTER.” I can’t wait for you to hear the magic that I have been working on. I have picked the best songs out of over 60 songs I wrote and recorded, the sweetest music you have ever heard from me.
“This is the album that I’ve had the most fun working on. I started recording during my tour last year. I performed in over 45 cities and soaked in so much culture and rich experiences, and I can definitely say that these experiences influenced my music and sound.
“From Utah to Calgary, Paris to Uganda, and Lagos to Brisbane. I remember sitting in my penthouse in Brisbane, watching the sun set and recording with my team in the room and my tequila of course. It has been a great year and I have poured it all into this album for you.
This is my most versatile album to date and I am excited for you to hear it. Thank you for always supporting me and I know you will do so again on this project.”
