I Can Afford to Fail in Music But Not as Father, Husband – Adekunle Gold
Nigerian singer, Adekunle Gold has revealed his mindset about parenting.
According to him, he can’t fail as a father and husband to his wife, Simi, and daughter, Adejare.
Speaking further, the singer stated that as a musician, he’s allowed to fail, but not as a husband and father.
Featuring in a recent episode of the NotJustOk podcast, Adekunle Gold stated that one of his greatest goal is to give his daughter a better life than his parents gave him growing up.
He shared that his song ‘My Love Is The Same’ was inspired by his determination to be a better father to his daughter.
“All I wanted to be is to do more for my own daughter because I can’t afford to bring her to the kind of life that I grow up living. It has to be way better. And that’s why I’m working hard.
“My family is my centre. I don’t joke with my family. I can afford to be a failed musician, not a failed father or a man. That’s not negotiable for me,” he expressed.
