Nigerian music sensation Asake has unveiled his latest vibrant track titled ‘Only Me,’ symbolizing his personal journey towards self-acceptance and satisfaction, free from the pressures of comparison to others.
This special release holds profound significance for the artist.
Taking to social media, Asake shared a heartfelt message, expressing, “Today I honor the journey I’ve been on and the journey yet to come. Happy birthday to a resilient soul .”
Just a few weeks back, Asake received his inaugural Grammy nomination for the track ‘Lonely At The Top,’ which is currently in contention for the Best African Music Performance category at the upcoming Grammy Awards scheduled for next month.
In what has been a bustling year, Asake recently dropped the remix of ‘Lonely At The Top,’ featuring H.E.R. The original track set a record as the longest-standing No. 1 hit in Nigeria. Additionally, his album ‘Untitled’ reached the No. 4 position on Billboard’s World Albums Chart.
Asake’s remarkable success has garnered him a massive fan following. In 2023, he achieved sold-out performances at two prominent venues: London’s O2 Arena and New York City’s Barclays Center. Marking his inaugural arena show in North America, Asake earned the distinction of being the first African artist to headline and sell out the Barclays Center.
