There’s a significant difference between singing and performing, Nigerian Afrobeats singer Asake, born Ahmed Ololade, wears both hats with dexterity.
Now known as Mr Money, the singer recently delivered an electrifying performance at the Red Bull Symphonic show in Brooklyn.
Several moments from his performances reinforced why Asake not only performs but owns the stage, setting high standards.
Here are unforgettable highlights from the recent show:
Waltz Way
Who would have thought to see Mr Money adorned in suits and Waltz dancing on stage? Talk about an artiste, who is full of surprises. This marked an unprecedented moment in the singer’s career. It was also beautiful to watch how he made it feel easy and flawless.
Funky Fuji
This is another electrifying moment where Mr Money spotlighted African Fuji music on stage, dancing to the rhythmic and energetic drum beats. If this doesn’t make you smile, I don’t know what will.
Orchestra Output
Performing his song “Nzaza” with an orchestra setup that tugs at your heart is one of the classic moments of Mr Money’s performance. The rhythm is subtle yet immersive, dishing out each lyric as clear as day.
Despite bringing A-list surprise artistes like Wizkid and Gunna on stage, Mr Money still stood out proving his place as a talented singer and performer.
