The Afrobeats phenomenon Asake has reacted to fans who have criticized him for singing in Yoruba.
One of Asake’s fans asked him why he doesn’t write his songs in English during a Sunday live Instagram session.
Since his music is now being heard by a wider audience, some other admirers have made the argument that he ought to sing more frequently in English.
In response, Asake said;
“The thing is, I am more comfortable singing my songs in Yoruba. Not that I can not still sing it in English. There are some parts in which I use English but I think I am more comfortable with Yoruba,” he said.
The “Terminator” hitmaker further implied that Yoruba music enthusiasts should cease listening if they do not enjoy it.
Asake rose to prominence in 2020 with his hit song ‘Lady’. The singer joined YBNL, the record label owned by Olamide, in February 2022.
Music is the vernacular of the human soul.
Live with Purpose, Love with Passion. Remember to be happy
