Asake Reveals He Was Once Denied Shows For Singing In Yoruba
Asake has opened up about the struggles he faced early in his music career, revealing that he was once denied performance opportunities because he sang in Yoruba.
The Sungba hitmaker shared his experience in an interview with Famous TV, reflecting on the obstacles he overcame on his path to success.
He explained that many show promoters at the time turned him down, requesting a different style, but he remained true to his sound and language.
“At some point, a lot of people said no to me. They didn’t allow me to perform at shows because I spoke Yoruba. But thank God I didn’t stop, and I kept believing in myself,” Asake said.
The singer credited his growth in the industry to perseverance, self-belief, and consistency, as well as divine favor.
“How I got to where I am today is by God’s grace, self-belief, consistency and endurance. Now, look at where I am today. I am so happy for myself,” he added.
