Adegbodu Twins to Unveil 50-Track Album, a Historic Milestone in Gospel Music

The Adegbodu twins have announced plans to release a groundbreaking 50-track album, a first of its kind in the history of music. The highly anticipated project is set to make waves in the gospel music industry, with the twins continuing to solidify their legacy as trailblazers. 

In celebration of their birthday on October 4, the twins actualised their intention to gift each of their band members a plot of land in Ibadan, as a gesture of gratitude for their loyalty and dedication.

The duo has raised concerns about the state of gospel music, expressing that not everyone in the industry was truly called to the ministry. They pointed out that many individuals pursue gospel music for the allure of money and fame, rather than a genuine spiritual calling. “Many newcomers are singing all sorts of music and calling it gospel, but not all are truly inspired by God,” they remarked.

The Adegbodu twins, whose career spans 25 years with their first album launch in 1999, said they have always drawn inspiration from God. They believe their destiny as singers was revealed before their birth, and they have remained committed to their divine calling ever since. In recognition of their contributions to gospel music and entertainment, the twins were recently appointed by Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke as Special Advisers on Entertainment and Tourism. This appointment reflects their consistent hard work and resilience in the industry over the years.

The duo is also gearing up to open a multi-million-naira audio/visual studio in Ibadan, a significant investment aimed at nurturing emerging talents and further promoting gospel music. Their recent accomplishments include a European tour in March, where they visited Spain, France, Germany, and Holland, followed by a pilgrimage to Jordan in June. Additionally, they have secured an ambassadorial deal with Yes FM 101.7 in Ibadan, further expanding their influence.

Looking ahead, the Adegbodu twins are planning to host the “God Concert” next year, a unique event that will bring together 10 gospel and 10 Muslim artists on the same stage to promote unity and harmony. They also announced plans to launch the “Festival of Light” in December, an event dedicated to honoring Governor Ademola Adeleke. With their upcoming album, various projects, and continued influence in both the music and entertainment industries, the Adegbodu Twins remain a powerful force in gospel music and beyond.
