Why Mr Money With The Vibe Debuted At An Ideal Time
In modern times, the Nigerian music industry has been able to diversify it’s genre and extend it’s musical range. Aside from the Afrobeat genre which has since catapulted into international relevance courtesy of Wizkid, Davido and Burna Boy‘s dexterity, the creation of Afro-fusion which involves pop music, Apala, Fuji, Rap and folklore really helped in enjoining listeners of different class, age group and gender.
Asake‘s lyrics does not accentuate social issues, albeit, he addresses the perception of the Nigerian youths. For instance, his album is primarily themed around epicureanism, self-discovery and attaining purpose.
Aside from his musical dexterity, his music producer, Magicstixx is also to be applauded for a job well done.
In the meantime, fans of Asake‘s music project have been singing his praises for releasing a potential classic.

This cooking is sweet now, when Outsiders will comeback and revisit all these agendas next Friday you guys shouldn’t cry, Cos they’ll surely fight back with Asake’s album sales
Just putting it out to your subconscious mind, don’t cry and tag them being “toxic”
