What helped asake throughout his career is that he is original meaning his growth is organic he wasn't too obsessed with international recognitions and he still got it effortlessly with his Local* Yoruba influenced music. The moral remains keep being yourself your time would come don't be too desperate and don't be complacent at the same time you are getting there it's a matter of time.✌️
Did you notice the humility in his person, even with the love, money and fame? His brand of humility should be studied... this is his secret. Quote me anywhere
3 things: 1. Asake keeps proving why he is rated among the best to ever do it. 💯👏🏾💕 2. H.E.R. served and ate on this track. 💯💞 3. The melanin beauties in this video showed up to remind us that black never cracks. 💞💯
I’m just so happy to see Asake getting the recognition that he deserves because he really came from the bottom especially for a African Nigerian to come out of nowhere. This is amazing and I am happy for you.
i love how she didn't just add her own verse in some random part of the song and basically ruin the song, but actually made her own cover adapted to her musical style.
For me, it's the Tribeca New York Industrail loft aesthetics, the beautiful shades of brown skin that grace this video; and the magic of a lavish, well-composed song - graced by the vocals of H.E.R. Oh, lest I forget to mention, that, i never thought in our life time we'd see a fuji-inspired artist like Asake make it to the global scene at this scale. Its crazy! Nigerians are some of the most inspiring people in the world, and i couldnt be more prouder to be Nigerian. Brilliant Song!
Are you a poet? 💀😅😅 But for real though if music was something tangible it would be enough for me to consider relocating to Nigeria. Manje i can listen to it from anywhere in the world. 😅😅 Music is in good hands though. Been exploring Nigerian music and I gotta say, it's nothing short of phenomenal. Enjoying all the way from South Africa 🇿🇦
It's just so beautiful to see how far afrobeats is going. Nigerian artistes are reshaping history. We used to hope that foreign artistes would let us work with them, right now the story is the reverse. They want to work with us. It's an amazing achievement.
I'm telling you Israel, this is sweetly crazy! I remember our excitement in Naija as a youth, if or when we heard an American song that had a few Nigerian words in the lyrics..we were dizzy with pride and joy. Now see where Afrobeats has elevated us to as a people! 👊🏾🇳🇬!

Asake is the man of the year no doubt!! Looking at where he is coming from, i am more than happy for where he is now! Greater heights! His story is an inspiration to everyone to keep doing what you love doing, one day you will be at the top! 🎉
Gabriella Sarmiento Wilson (born June 27, 1997), known professionally as H.E.R. (pronounced "her", also an acronym for "Having Everything Revealed"), is an American R&B singer and songwriter. She has received an Academy Award, a Children's and Family Emmy Award, and five Grammy Awards, along with nominations for a Golden Globe Award, three American Music Awards, and four Billboard Music Awards.
Had to watch this because I just saw h.e.r perform this live and she did so well, her diversity and willingness to explore other genres is commendable, for a multi lingual American to speak and sing in pidgin NO EASY. She deserves all her flowers, what a beautiful song.
I tap into his blessings 🙏. Asake is really making Africa proud . To take a local language to the world market is not easy at all . God bless him and I pray he win’s everything his heart desires
And some senseless Nigerians that don't value culture keep downgrading him that all he knows his yoruba..pls what is Afrobeat without YORUBA WORDS IN IT
I believe he prayed for days like this! Glad he's experiencing them all while he's here. Love you OLOLADE My Brother Mr Money with the Vibe! Big Ups 🎈🐐
Asake Asake Asake, the world 🌎🌎🌎 is @ your feet bro, please use this time well. I'm so proud of you... Nigeria is proud of you, Africa is proud of you, The world is also proud of you. Let me be the first person to say congratulations for your forth coming Grammy Awards cos you deserve it my dear Asake....
Couldn't have picked a better person than HER. I mean her voice is so healing. Love everything about this video, the quality, the people, the outfits.. phew😮💨 🔥🔥
I'm of Pakistani and Indian and ethnicity and born British and proud to represent my country here these African and Nigerian songs are amazing, Ayra Starr, Asake soooo many more just flooded this space and they're here to stay and dominate love so much love for this music.
I love seeing the Nigerians' story of zero to hero; it gives this hope of " I can become as big as those I see as impossible " just put my mind into it.
This song is killing me softly, the collaboration is superb and fantastic. The level afrobeat is going now, very soon some genres of music will be remove from the surface of the earth. Only afrobeat will represent the world! Asake Is blessed. Nice one bro 💪🏿✊🏿❤
This music is a masterpiece, I listen to it 5, 10, 15 times a day since its release. The energy that emerges is galvanizing, it fills me with a mixture of determination, melancholy, and the desire to live. I wish you all my love from France
Asake and H.E.R.? 😮 This is beautiful. H.E.R. on this Afrobeat masterpiece is amazing. Mind-blowing performance by both artists, I could literally taste the vocals and rhythm, sweeeet😋🍬 !. A good afrobeat soundtrack will always bubble and find its way to the top Mr Money Ginger🔥.
I’ll align myself with HER’s vocal brilliance; the synergy with Asake is a powerful statement, elevating his global recognition. His artistry is authentic, featuring a distinctive voice and a truly unique style ❤
So beautiful!! To me, this remix of the song represents a beautiful bridge between the African and the Black American cultures. A masterpiece of black excellence and artistry!! Ololade Asake!! I hail you. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🖤🖤🖤👑👑👑
😂😂😂😂😂you sound like my hubby who made our sons support his football club as long as they are under his roof and eating his food 🤦🏾♀️🙆🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️the only good thing is that they are all grown up now and all support the same team in the house so no rivalry or drama 😊but still baffles me to this day on how he got away with it for so many years ☺️
Just when I thought this song couldn’t get any better. Wow Wow👏🏾👏🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥loving this version. On repeat, so psyched RU-vid recommend this video for me. Asake & H.E. R. ❤❤❤❤
