Multiple award-winning singer Asake has caused quite a stir on the internet. Originally signed to the YBNL music label in February 2022, which is owned and managed by Olamide (Baddo), Asake quickly made a name for himself with his unique blend of musical talent. Known for his versatility, he navigated various genres effortlessly, showcasing his range and potential. Asake’s rise can be attributed to his ability to blend street-inspired sounds with mainstream appeal, and he brought a fresh energy to the Afrobeat scene.
While Asake initially gained attention with his contributions to the “lowlife” genre, a subculture that highlights street attitudes of excessive drinking, smoking, and drug use, his musical output reached far beyond this niche. His work resonated with listeners worldwide, particularly as he infused his street life experiences into his lyrics. Hits like “Joha,” “Terminator,” and “Lonely at the Top” helped solidify his position as a global artist. His latest album, *Lungu Boy*, features collaborations with international stars like Travis Scott, Central Cee, Wizkid, Stormzy, and Brazilian singer Ludmila.
With newfound fame, Asake has embraced a more extravagant lifestyle. He’s recently acquired a Tesla Cybertruck and has been spotted with face tattoos, further marking his transformation. Fans have had mixed reactions to his evolving image, with some comparing it to other global stars, while others express excitement over his bold new look. Asake clearly enjoys the attention and is fully embracing his success.
