When I saw this Instagram post by DTunes saying that 9ice was working on a new album, I was excited for several reasons, but mostly because it appears that Abolore Akande is giving us ONE more album before his actual retirement which he had mentioned prior to running for political office. Obviously, 9ice has his mind in politics and he may just get a political appointment, especially if his party (APC) wins again in Oyo state after these elections are over. So we may never hear 9ice on a record again after this new ALBUM.
I have been a BIG fan of 9ice since he released his AMAZING Sophomore album, Gongo Aso. The single Gongo Aso, is also part reason why Notjustok.com is a music site today. 9ice’s subsequent albums Tradition, Versus, Bashorun Gaa, Deluxe Version of Bashorun Gaa and CNN/GRA were also packed with good music, but have very mixed reception when compared to the Gongo Aso album.
With that said, I truly believe that 9ice has at least one CLASSIC album left in him. and I am going to suggest 7 Things 9ice Can Do to Make Another Classic Album
