Asake Shares the Inspiration Behind His New Look
Nigerian music star Asake has finally spoken about the reason behind his recent style transformation. The award-winning artist, known for his distinct fashion and signature dreadlocks, surprised fans with a fresh look featuring a shorter hairstyle and facial tattoos.
During a red carpet interview at the 2025 Grammy Awards, Asake explained that his new appearance is all about personal comfort and self-expression.
A Style That Reflects His Mood
Sharing his thoughts on the change, Asake emphasized that his look is a reflection of how he feels at the moment. “I like to feel comfortable in my own skin and make choices that suit me,” he said. “This isn’t about anyone else. Today, this is how I feel, but tomorrow, who knows? The tattoos might be gone.”
Grateful for His Grammy Nomination
The singer also expressed gratitude for his nomination in the ‘Best African Music Performance’ category for his hit song MMS. Although the award ultimately went to Tems, Asake said he felt honored to be recognized among top artists.
“I feel blessed. Many people dream of being nominated, so to be part of those chosen is something I truly appreciate,” he shared.
