EUROPE/UK TICKETS:
Asake has proved to be one of the most exciting artists to emerge from the African continent in the last couple years. He’s shared his debut album Mr. Money With The Vibe in 2022 which set the record for the highest charting Nigerian debut album of all-time, reaching #1 in over 30 countries on Apple Music. The next year he followed up with Work of Art which debuted at #4 on Billboard World Albums Chart and #66 on Billboard 200. The album features standout single “Amapiano” with Olamide that earned Asake his first ever nomination in the Grammy’s first ever Best African Music Performance category. He also collaborated with award winning singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, H.E.R., for the “Lonely At The Top (Remix)” – the original record was the first ever song to reach 100 million streams on Audiomack, cementing him as Artist of The Year, and is the longest #1 charting song in Nigeria. Asake has performed late-night TV on the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, been featured in CNN, Good Morning America, Flaunt Magazine, GQ Magazine, Rolling Stone Future 25, and more, and reached a career milestone of 2 billion streams and counting.
