Asake’s victory at the 2023 Headies Awards marks a significant milestone in his music career. Not only did he win the coveted Album of the Year award, but he also secured the prestigious Next Rated category.
Asake’s Headies Awards achievement is remarkable considering the tough competition he faced, including established artists like Davido, Burna Boy, Rema, and Omah Lay.
It’s worth noting that Asake’s journey in the music industry has been unconventional. He initially started as a dancer, collaborating with various dance organizations and theatre companies during his high school years.
However, his foray into music was a happy accident, triggered by the viral success of his freestyle “Lady” in 2020. The support from influential internet personalities such as Broda Shaggi, Sydney Talker, and NastyBlaq played a pivotal role in propelling his career forward.
Asake’s track record of hard work and determination is evident through his recognition at the City People Music Awards in 2020, where he secured two out of three nominations, including the Most Popular Song of the Year title.
The Headies Awards, established in 2006 by the Hip Hop World Magazine of Nigeria, is a prestigious platform that celebrates exceptional achievements in the Nigerian music industry. The event showcases both established and promising artists, broadcasting the excitement live on HipTV to audiences across Nigeria.
In 2023, the Headies Awards featured a diverse range of categories, including Album of the Year, Artiste of the Year, Song of the Year, and Rookie of the Year. Asake’s album, “Mr. Money With The Vibe,” stood out among the competition, earning him well-deserved recognition and establishing him as one of the rising stars in Nigerian music.
