Adekunle Gold Teams Up With Rick Ross For Addictive ‘5 Star’ Remix

Bringing one of the most exciting and explosive collaborations of the year, the international Afropop sensation  Adekunle Gold has teamed up with the GRAMMY Award-nominated music star and business magnate Rick Ross for the remix of his latest single ‘5 Star’ (out now on Afro Urban Records via Platoon).

Already proven to be the summer anthem for embracing your journey to your own superstar status and channeling your inner VIP with the ‘5 Star’ Open Verse challenge which has been sweeping across social media and the vibrant TG Omori-directed visual, the remix adds another string to the bow of Adekunle Gold’s evolution into a fully fledged, global music and style icon. 

Seeing the two music titans come together to meld Adekunle Gold’s stellar, soulful vocals and one-of-a-kind lyricism with Rick Ross’ inimitable flair and powerful bars, the Kel-P-produced ‘5 Star’ remix is set to be a strong contender for song of the year.“5 Star is an opportunity for me to speak my truth, to honestly express my experiences and my reality.

It’s a manifestation of the life that I want for myself and for all of you,” shares Adekunle Gold.” Stream or download 5 Star Remix here: https://platoon.lnk.to/5-star-with-rick-rossListen to official 5 Star Remix audio on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pqBw0RpAB4
