Ahmed Ololade, popularly known as Asake, is a rising Nigerian musician whose debut album, Mr Money With The Vibe, created history on Apple Music.
On September 7, the YBNL artist released “Mr Money with the Vibe,” and it was well welcomed.
A week after the album dropped, it has bagged six record-making milestones on Apple Music worldwide.
The biggest opening day for an African album in Apple Music history was achieved by “Mr. Money With The Vibe.”
The album also shattered the previous record for the highest three-day opening for an African album on Apple Music.
Nine tracks from the album entered the Global Daily Top 100 in a trend that broke records.
Additionally, “Mr. Money With The Vibe” debuted at No. 1 on the Top Albums Chart in 31 different nations, including Nigeria, the United Kingdom, and Ireland. This was a first for an African album.
Numerous tracks from Asake’s album made it to the Daily Top 100 in 60 different nations, including 26 where they debuted in the top 10.
The album’s top hits also peaked at No. 1 in 14 different nations.
As previously reported by CorrectNG, the current rave discussed the making of his debut album, MMWTV, and Olamide’s influence.
How long did it take to record the 12-track album? was a question Asake was asked by Ehiz during an interview on Apple Music Africa Now.
The Terminator singer claimed that his recording process is neither predetermined or prescheduled because there are days when he wakes up and feels like creating seven songs at once, in contrast to other times when he might go an entire month without writing a single song.
The young musician added that he had the option to halt recording at any time, depending on his mood.
However, he claimed that Olamide had a part in making the creation of Mr. Money with the Vibe a stress-free procedure.
Asake claimed that the project went according to schedule and that he is pleased with how everything turned out.
