Asake Speaks on Humility vs Ego in the Music Industry Nigerian Afrobeats star Ahmed Ololade, popularly known as Asake, has shed light on the tricky balance between humility and ego in the entertainment world. In a recent interview, the Mr Money With The Vibe crooner explained that while humility is often praised in society, it can actually work against artists in the music scene. He noted that fans tend to take humble artistes for granted, whereas those who project a bit of ego are often seen as more desirable and respected. “As an artiste, if you’re humble, they take you for granted. But if you have ego, they feel like you’re not accessible, then they like you more,” Asake said. He further explained that audiences generally care more about the finished product than the process behind it. According to him, people rarely value the hard work shown behind the scenes, but they quickly recognize and respect results. “People would rather see what you’re doing than showing them. They don’t really appreciate it. Do what you need to do and just go,” he added. Asake emphasized the need for artistes to focus on their craft and let their results speak louder than any attempt at validation. In his view, in an industry where glamour often overshadows sincerity, ego can sometimes work as a protective shield while humility may be mistaken for weakness.

Singer Asake causes a stir with his hairstyle at a recent concert.

Asake has fully dropped everything to do with his former record label YBNL, he has replaced Empire with Gamma as his official distribution company. His record label, Giran Republic has signed a distribution deal with Gamma, a Los Angeles based music and entertainment company. He has joined artists like Usher, Rick Ross, and Snoop Dogg. Asake is currently based in California. He has his cannabis brand in California and has just signed a distribution deal with a California based company. Omo Mr Money is making moves!

Asake has cancelled over 8 concerts since he left YBNL due to low ticket sales . His France concert was cancelled cus he sold just 8k from the 40k tickets . He hasn’t topped Spotify or Apple Music again for months like he used to do . Remember we used to call him “ Land lord “ of chats . Cancelling over 8 concerts in less than a year is not a Great thing . This shows he was not really ready to leave before leaving . 90% of the time we blame record labels , we fail to see the work they do until an artiste leaves.
