Or Not: Adekunle Gold and "Ready"

Today's random tune is called Ready, and it is by Adekunle Gold. Adekunle Kosoko is a Nigerian highlife singer who was born into royalty in Lagos State, Nigeria. He became interested in music at a young age, and grew up listening to the music of King Sunny Adé and Ebenezer Obey. He gained some attention after he posted a photoshopped picture of himself hugging Tiwa Savage, but his big musical break came after he recorded a version of One Direction's Story of My Life, which gained critical acclaim and was nominated for awards. His first full album likewise received critical acclaim and rose to #7 on the Billboard World Music charts. He has released two albums, and you can find Ready on his 2016 debut album Gold.
