During an Instagram interactive session with followers, Afrobeat singer Asake explained why he prefers to sing in Yoruba.
He mentioned that he can sing in English but prefers to express himself in Yoruba.
Asake emphasized that those who do not appreciate his music in Yoruba should stop listening entirely.
He said: “I am more comfortable singing in Yoruba, it’s not that I can’t sing in English. If you fvck with me, fvck with me with my Yoruba. If not, then don’t”.
All three of Asake’s CDs, “Mr Money With The Vibes,” “Work of Art,” and “Lungu Boy,” have primarily Yoruba lyrics.
Despite the fact that it is primarily sung in Yoruba, his hit song “Amapiano” received a Grammy Award nomination.

However, a quick glance at the clergyman’s social media pages failed to confirm the provenance of this alleged olive branch.
There was no evidence that Prophet Jeremiah Fufeyin wrote the message himself, casting doubt on its validity.
Nonetheless, in a new video, Verydarkman addressed the viral message directly. With severe scepticism, he threw doubt on the text’s legitimacy, implying that it may not have come from the prophet.
But, even if it were true, VDM made it quite obvious that he would flatly refuse any apology from the individual who, in his view, had caused him such distress.
In the sarcastic video, VDM simulated tears, ridiculing the concept of forgiveness in this high-stakes conflict. He emphasised that his struggle with the general supervisor was more than simply personal; it was a
