Daily Post Nigeria Asake bigger than Olamide – Big Vic Home News Politics Metro Entertainment Sport Entertainment Asake bigger than Olamide – Big Vic Published on August 17, 2024 By Sunny Green Itodo Popular media personality Big Vic has claimed that singer Asake is now a bigger artist than ace rapper and CEO of YBNL Nation, Olamide. Speaking on a recent episode of the ‘Ctdamongblacks’ podcast, he said: “Asake is bigger than Olamide right now. I’m not talking about lifetime achievement; I’m talking about the moment.
At this point, he [Asake] is bigger in terms of collaboration, connection, sold-out shows.” “Olamide could have decided not to invest so much in him but he knew that if Asake becomes big, he would benefit from it.” He said artists of Southeast extraction are not helping their kinsmen to be successful in the music industry like their Southwest counterparts because they are afraid of someone else overtaking them.
He advised Igbo artists to emulate their Yoruba counterparts by investing more in up-and-coming talents from their region. DAILY POST recalls that Asake previously revealed that he begged Olamide for about two years before he accepted to sign him to his record label. Asake signed to YBNL Nation in February 2022.
That same month, he released his debut extended play, ‘Ololade,’ which featured his breakthrough song “Omo Ope” featuring Olamide and the single “Sungba.” Related Topics: Asake Big Vic olamide Don't Miss ‘Rema overpriced himself’ – Paulo Okoye You may like Asake becomes first African artiste to top global Spotify debut chart ‘I’m more comfortable singing in Yoruba’ – Asake ‘Wizkid begged to be featured in my song’ – Asake ‘Wizkid inspired me, been eager to collaborate with him’ – Asake Thanks for giving me a chance – Adekunle Gold appreciates Olamide for career boost ‘Why I don’t allow my artistes to release songs same day as Wizkid, Asake’ – Don Jazzy Advertise About Us Contact Us Privacy-Policy Terms Copyright © Daily Post Media Ltd.
