Why an Adekunle Gold and Simi joint album could be the masterpeice of their careers.

Simi and Adekunle Gold are reportedly working on a joint album, and this could be a pivotal moment in the discography of the power couple.

The idea of a power couple album is not exactly a new concept globally, but as the music crosses into the Nigerian waters, it largely remains an uncharted territory.

Of course, there have been a few musical couples who have combined forces in the past to release projects, cue in Tunde and Wunmi Obe, the dynamic duo who started off as members of the Unilag band and became screen darlings with the Charly Boy show in the 90s.

We also had The Mandators in the 1980s, the reggae group comprising of Victor Essiet and his late wife, Peggy famous for their songs like ‘Rat Race’ and ‘Apartheid’, but it will actually be a hard sell to term them as a 'power couple' in that context.
