B-Red |
a new song title “Cucumber”.
Releasing his debut collaboration with Akon, HKN
artiste B-Red has described the smashing hit-
single as the biggest collaboration of all time.
According to him, “The song is telling a story of
me liking a girl, and she liking me too. But she
does not want any serious relationship; she just
wants to sleep with me. All she wants is the
‘Cucumber’. I’m saying I don’t want one night
stand, but that’s what she wants.”
The artiste, who also happens to be Davido’s
cousin aside from being a record label mate,
feels his greatest dream as regards music was
to feature Akon, as only few Nigerian artistes
have done collaboration with him.
“I’m happy to be precise; it’s only a few people
that have a smashing collaboration with Akon in
Nigeria; Psquare, Dbanj, Wizkid, Tubaba, Davido
and me.”
When asked how he met Akon and what he paid
for the song to be done, he said: “Interestingly, I
wrote it and did it alone at first. But after the
Meek Mill video with me and Davido in America,
we went to Akon’s studio because Akon is on
Davido’s album too.
“While at the studio, after Davido played his
songs for him, I also played ‘Cucumber for Akon
and the way he reacted, he was like please play
that song again. Even Davido and his manager
were surprised that what’s going on! Then he
made me play it for him like four times. He fell in
love with the jam and said I should leave it with
him and the next day, I collected it.
“Normally you have to pay for something like
this, but I got it for free. Akon is a legend so I
was happy and thankful to God.”
Addressing the delay of releasing songs, B-Red
disclosed that he’s doing something different
from what he has always been doing. “I want to
release both audio and video of the song at the
same time. And I’m going to shoot the video in
two weeks.”
Recall that Adebayo Adeleke popularly known as
B-Red is second out of four families. He plays
the drums, sing and produce music, and an artist
signed his cousin label HKN record label.
