Nigerian music sensation Adekunle Gold has officially announced the upcoming release of "Fuji Xtra Deluxe," a deluxe edition of his critically acclaimed sixth studio album, "Fuji." The highly anticipated project is slated for release on Friday, May 8, 2026, and will feature a stellar lineup of collaborators, including fellow Nigerian artists Olamide, TML Vibez, and Simi.

The "Fuji Xtra Deluxe" edition will add five new tracks to the original "Fuji" album, which was released in October 2025. Among the exciting new additions are "Formation," a collaboration with the prolific rapper Olamide; "Shake Shake," featuring the rising artist TML Vibez; and "Blue Fire," a duet with the soulful singer Simi.

The lead single from the deluxe edition, "Formation," featuring Olamide, was released on April 9, 2026, offering fans a taste of the project's vibrant Afrobeats sound infused with Fuji influences. This collaboration is particularly notable, as Adekunle Gold and Olamide are not frequent musical partners, making their union on this track a significant draw for fans.

The original "Fuji" album was celebrated for its rich percussive foundation, drawing inspiration from Apala, Fuji, and Tungba genres. Adekunle Gold masterfully wove themes of heritage, love, success, and Yoruba oral storytelling traditions into the album, describing it as a deeply personal and culturally intentional body of work.

With "Fuji Xtra Deluxe," Adekunle Gold aims to build upon the success of the original album, promising to deepen its narrative and introduce fresh sonic elements through his featured guests. The inclusion of Olamide suggests a potential street-inspired edge, TML Vibez is expected to bring a contemporary vibe, and Simi is poised to add her signature soulful and melodic touch.

Fans are eagerly anticipating the release of "Fuji Xtra Deluxe," which promises to be another significant offering from Adekunle Gold, further solidifying his position as a trendsetter in the Afrobeats and Fuji music landscape.
