B-Red and his cousin, Davido
Speaking in an exclusive interview with Punch's Sunday Scoop,
Bayo Adeleke, aka B-Red, who is signed on with HKN Music label, and is
also a cousin to multiple award-winning popstar, Davido, said he is
happy at the pace of his growth.
Notwithstanding his average popularity in the industry, many music
lovers have refused to acknowledge his talent. In fact, they are of the
opinion that his days as an artiste are numbered.
Some music critics are disappointed that his career has not assumed
a different dimension in spite of Davido and HKN’s influence. Despite
the view of many, the heavily-tattooed musician says he is happy where
he is.
“Knowing that God has a plan for everybody, I am comfortable
with the unhurried pace. There was a time I didn’t have a car or a
Rolex, but look at me now. Every year, I grow and I will get bigger, so I
am not in a rush. I am okay and content,” he said.

B-Red who has also been accused of living under Davido’s shadow
said there is no shame in leveraging on the star power of his cousin.
“In every group, you have a leader and I do not care about
being number one as long as I am doing good, getting money and doing
shows. Davido is number one and we follow but you never know, probably
I’ll be as big as he is. If your cousin is a star, won’t you want to be a
star too? I built my brand by hyping my cousin for four years and look
at where I am now,” he said.
B-Red who is busy promoting his new EP released under HKN titled, "All The Way Up",
also denied leaving HKN. While rebutting the story, he confirmed he
would be doing a collaboration with Mayorkun, whom many insinuated that
he is envious of.
