Ahmed Oloade, better recognized as Asake, achieved a groundbreaking milestone on Sunday evening, becoming the inaugural Nigerian newcomer to sell out the remarkable 20,000-seat O2 Arena in London, UK.

The pinnacle of Asake’s recent concert at the O2 was his grand entrance, capturing attention and awe from the audience. The singer made a spectacular arrival onto the stage, descending from a helicopter suspended within the auditorium, adding an unforgettable touch to the event.

During his performance, he treated the audience to a captivating blend of tracks from his first album, ‘Mr Money With The Vibe,’ as well as selections from his second venture, ‘Work Of Art.’ The stage came alive even more when he introduced his fellow YBNL record label companion, Fireboy DML, along with Lil Kesh and an array of other talented artists.
