Adekunle Gold to Release Fuji Deluxe Album on May 8
Nigerian music star Adekunle Gold has announced plans to release a deluxe version of his critically acclaimed album Fuji on May 8, 2026, giving fans more music and a deeper experience of his creative vision.
The “Fuji Extra” crooner revealed that the upcoming project will serve as an extension of his 2025 album, adding five new tracks to the already successful body of work. The deluxe edition is expected to expand the unique blend of traditional Fuji sounds and modern Afrobeats that defined the original release.
To bring this vision to life, Adekunle Gold has teamed up with a strong lineup of collaborators. The project will feature contributions from Olamide, rising talent TML Vibez, and his wife, celebrated vocalist Simi.
The original Fuji album received widespread praise for its creativity and sound, producing popular tracks such as Obimo, Don Corleone, and Big Fish. With the addition of new songs, the deluxe version aims to build on that success while offering fans a richer listening experience.
According to Adekunle Gold, the new tracks are not meant to replace the original album but to complement it. He explained that the goal is to deepen the story and sound he introduced, rather than change its identity.
In a personal message shared on Instagram, the singer reflected on his creative journey, stating that the original album felt unfinished. He said there were still more stories to tell within the musical world he created, which inspired the decision to release a deluxe edition.
He also expressed appreciation to his fans for their continued support, noting that their encouragement has played a major role in his growth and willingness to explore new sounds.
The announcement has already generated excitement among fans, many of whom are eager to hear how the new tracks will expand the album’s unique fusion of traditional and contemporary music.
As anticipation builds, the upcoming release is expected to further strengthen Adekunle Gold’s position as one of Nigeria’s most innovative and consistent artists in the global music scene.
