ASAKE - MR. MONEY WITH THE VIBE

Prior to the release of this studio album, Asake had been quite active in the Nigerian music industry for some time, having released singles like "Body", "Yan Yan", "Don't Hype Me", "My Lady", and "Mr Money" among other singles. But he broke into prominence when Olamide, who he credits as having a pivotal role in his success and also the owner of YBNL Nation, got exposed to the artiste and recorded a verse on Asake's "Omo Ope" which was an unreleased track as at the time. Not long after, Asake got signed under YBNL which comes with a distribution partnership with Empire and the song was released to the public 19 January 2022. As a follow-up to the released single, he consequently released an Extended Play titled "Ololade Asake" on 17 February 2022 with four tracks; "Baba God", "Trabaye", "Sungba" and the already released "Omo Ope".
