Alhaji Sulaimon Alao 'Malaika' Adekunle, Fuji musician
ignited London fans last Friday.
He dazzled music buffs at Planet Hollywood, Comberwell
Green. The hilarious show was attended by lots of crowd from Manchester,
Liverpool, Peckham, Chinford and other places in the UK who watched Alayeluwa
Malaika on the stage alongside his KS1 band.
Shetade Images and Wright Way Media, the companies in charge
of Malaika Media affairs revealed that the show held for Malaika had massive
turn out. Since the Fuji musicians often storm United Kingdom, the Friday show
recorded the major patronage in the history of Fuji music.
'Even at the point the gate fee was increased to from $30 to
$50,the crowd kept coming out massively till the show, organized by God Father
Promotions ended', C E O,Shetade Images, Shehu Tijani said.
Malaika who is also called Jagaban of Fuji Music won African
International Music Ambassador Award presented by an international organization
based in Washington DC, US penultimate week before stormed United Kingdom from
United of America.
It was learnt that after the death of the late Fuji icon,Alhaji
Sikiru Ayinde Barrister,the international body has been sourcing for the Fuji
legend's successor until few days ago that the body found trust in Alayeluwa's
talents who climed the ladder and fits into late Mr Fuji.Ayinde Barrister's
shoe as far as new generation of fuji musicians are concerned.
After presenting the award to him, Malaika eulogized his US
promoter, Olayemi Titiloye,CEO, Godat Promotions for his consistence efforts in
trying to lure ks1 music band to US and makes sure the tour is a successful
one.
"To God be the glory. He gives us opportunity to be at
United States of America today. This would have happened to any Fuji musician
winning the award. I must thank my US promoter, Olayemi Titiloye for persuading
me to come down here in spite his efforts many years ago.I told him the right
time has not come. Therefore, this is the period we have been waiting for. And
this is why am here. Here to entertain my fans who have been willing to see me.
And to really tell the world that I am moving to the great ladder and platform
late Ayinde Barrister had left behind. The legacy must not stop”, he confined.
He concluded that some cynics have been spreading rumour
that his US promoter was introduced to him by him, an artiste who declined his
personality while he left our shores. Malaika refuted the rumour that he never
met Olayemi from anybody but through Almighty God.
It would be recalled that Malaika who released Proper Music
Video few days back has sold 1 million copies courtesy efforts from Babalaje
Records
