Bayo Adeleke, aka B-Red, is signed on with music
label, HKN, and is also a cousin to multiple award-
winning artiste, Davido.
Notwithstanding his average popularity in the industry,
many music lovers have refused to acknowledge his
talent. In fact, they are of the opinion that his days as
an artiste are numbered. They are disappointed that his
career has not assumed a different dimension in spite of
Davido and HKN’s influence. Despite the view of many,
the heavily-tattooed musician says he is happy where
he is.
In an interview with Sunday Scoop,down-to-earth and
forthright B-Red, said he is happy at the pace of his
growth.“Knowing that God has a plan for everybody, I
am comfortable with the unhurried pace. There was a
time I didn’t have a car or a Rolex, but look at me now.
Every year, I grow and I will get bigger, so I am not in a
rush. I am okay and content,” he said.
B-Red who has also been accused of living under
Davido’s shadow said there is no shame in leveraging
on the star power of his cousin.
He said, “In every group, you have a leader and I do not
care about being number one as long as I am doing
good, getting money and doing shows. Davido is
number one and we follow but you never know,
probably I’ll be as big as he is. If your cousin is a star,
won’t you want to be a star too? I built my brand by
hyping my cousin for four years and look at where I am
now.”
B-Red who is busy promoting his new EP released
under HKN titled, All The Way Up, also denied that
leaving HKN. While rebutting the story, he confirmed he
would be doing a collaboration with Maryokun, whom
many insinuated that he is envious of.
“There is no beef between me and Maryokun, we are
hitting the studio soon and doing something together, I
didn’t leave HKN and I am not leaving HKN. I even have
the HKN tattooed on my body. My contract is very long.
HKN is family and I am not leaving,” he stressed.
