Asake net worth 2023

With a net worth of $1.2 million, Asake has established himself as an A-list stage performer in the densely crowded Nigerian music scene. After transitioning from dance to music while pursuing Theatre Arts at Obafemi Awolowo University, one of Nigeria's premier tertiary institutions, he promptly gained recognition on campus with a popular single. 

Before becoming the artist with the longest consecutive charting run on the Spotify Top Artists Nigeria, Asake's talent piqued the interest of YBNL, leading to his signing in February 2022. 

"Omo Ope," his sixth single, peaked at number one on the Apple Music Nigeria Charts, while his partnership with Fireboy DML on the single 'Bandana' awarded them the recognition of most-streamed song in Nigeria, amassing 77 million on-demand streams. 

With seven Number One singles by September 2022 and a five-minute sell-out at London's O2 Academy Brixton, Asake has solidified his position as a prominent figure in the Nigerian music industry.

His scholarly publication, 'Mr. Money With The Vibes,' serves to reinforce his standing as a preeminent artist of the decade.

After the success of "Omo-Ope" and Asake's signing to YBNL, the record label issued "Ololade Asake," his debut EP, which contained the tracks "Omo Ope ft Olamide (one of Nigeria's richest musicians) " "Trabaye," "Sungba," and "Baba God." After attaining two Number One singles and having "Sungba" remixed by Burna Boy (Nigeria's best artist), Asake embarked on an extraordinary run of multiple entries at the summit of the rankings.

As of September 2022, Asake had amassed an unprecedented seven Number One singles, preeminent in the annals of Afrobeats.

"Omo-Ope," "Sungba," "Sungba Rmx ft Burna," "Palazzo" by Spinall, "Peace Be Unto You," "Bandana" by Fireboy, "Terminator" and the present-day leader, "Lonely at the Top," are among these chart-topper songs.
