If Fuji ever had a fashion king, Adekunle Gold just claimed the throne — and he did it on horseback. Literally.

In his latest photo drop, the singer channels pure Fuji-meets-Godfather energy in a lush green velvet agbada embroidered with gold — the kind of outfit that makes you sit up a little straighter just looking at it. The matching trousers? Impeccable. The long green beads? A masterclass in detail. The cap? Calm confidence in fabric form.

Then there’s the horse. A full horse. Because apparently, the only thing that could elevate a look this regal was an actual steed. The image feels cinematic — like a scene plucked straight out of an Afrofuturist Western scored by live drums and soft bragging rights.

He captioned it simply: “Don Corleone don wake o,” a slick nod to “Don Corleone,” the second track off his new Fuji album. And just like the music, the visuals hit that sweet spot between tradition and swagger — where cultural heritage meets unbothered modern-day cool.

Adekunle isn’t just wearing velvet; he’s wearing legacy — with the kind of confidence that says the new era of Fuji isn’t coming. It’s already here, and it’s wearing gold embroidery.
