Friend Zone

3 mins • 2016

“Friend Zone” by Adekunle Gold from his album “Gold” is a mellow Afro-fusion song about a man struggling to break free from a one-sided friendship. Adekunle sings about a girl who keeps calling him “brother” despite his clear romantic intentions. You’re in love, but she’s calling you “bestie”? God abeg. It’s a relatable track for anyone stuck in the “friend zone”
