Adekunle Gold finally reveals the Busayo he dedicated his song Ire too
Ire is a tribute from Adekunle Gold to his late sister Busayo
One can not but notice the type writer, typing “For Busayo” at the end of Ire’s video by Adekunle Gold. The cinematic effect of the video is so catchy, so are the words that ends the video which got people asking questions. Who is he dedicating the song too, a girlfriend or …? So the singer finally answers the question.
He wrote:
“’For Busayo’ Who is Busayo? I’ve been getting this question a lot. Busayo is my sister. We lost her in 2011 to a Heart Complication. I’m fiercely protective of my family but I didn’t think I could skip out one of my favorite memories or people in life. Busayo was symbolically represented by the little girl skipping around me in the video as that is who she was in real life. She never left my side, matter of fact, she was my younger twin. We looked alike and she could sing for the whole of AFRICA. In my heart, I believe I sing for the both of us; it was only right that I dedicated the video to her memory. #decodingire #ire #ForBusayo.”
