ASAKE THE LATEST BADDO

 

With the release of his single "Lady" in 2020, the young outstanding musician Asake made his debut in the field. He became well-known after he signed with Olamide's YBNL Nation Records.

As a result of his music's popularity in the Afrobeats scene, Asaké has matched the vivacious energy of his music with elegance and color in an equal measure. Asaké clearly isn't afraid of color, as evidenced by the graphics of his music videos, gigs, and events.

Asaké (also known as Mr. Money) has a penchant for wearing all-black attire, but he can also pull off a flair of color that captures his sense of style. Check out some of his incredible performances.  It's all about excitement at Palazzo. The song's speed builds on the hook and goes with a steady rhythm. The same is true of the visual representation's style.

From a tank top to a body hug with several patterns and a pair of baggy jeans. Palazzo has big boy energy that rocks.
