A collaborative track from the English and Nigerian artists>>Nao and Adekunle Gold

London singer-songwriter Nao has shared a new track with Nigerian artist Adekunle Gold. It’s called “Antidote” and you can check it out below.

Nao said in a press release:

“Antidote” is the remedy to 2020; it’s a song born out of lockdown which was something that affected everybody’s lives all over the world. Both Adekunle and I had daughters born weeks apart during this time, they lifted our vibrations and we wanted to share that good energy with the rest of the world.

Adekunle Gold added:

This song is a perfect description of how I feel about my daughter. Love usually feels like a concept, sometimes invisible, but with her it’s so tangible because she’s right there. I’m so obsessed with her that if she wasn’t around me, I wouldn’t be OK, I guess that’s what antidote is, a cure, a loving cure to the things that ail me.

Back in August, Nao teamed up with Lianne La Havas for their joint track “Woman.” Nao’s most recent studio album was 2018’s Saturn. Adekunle Gold released Afro Pop Vol. 1 last year.
