King of World Beat and the first
home based Nigerian to be
nominated twice at the Grammy
awards, will be in South Africa
for the World cup.
But he will not be involved in
the round leather game, instead,
he is going to the former
apartheid enclave to do what he
knows how to do best — sing
and dance. Apart from his
expected performance as a solo
artiste, the Ondo State born high
chief will also join some other
Africa ’s A-list musicians to
perform the official theme song
for the Mundial.
Currently in the United States of
America where sources
informed he had gone to
produce his own version of the
theme song, we gathered
reliably that King Sunny Ade will
be rendering his version of the
theme song in the Yoruba
language.
“Before he jetted out of the
country last month, the King had
to work night and day to
translate his own version of the
song into Yoruba, and now he is
in America to work on the
song ”, our source gushed.
The King returned last night.
