Asake has made history, selling out the 20,000-seat Capital One Arena in Washington, DC. He joins fellow Nigerian superstars Burna Boy and Davido in achieving this monumental feat.

This comes on the heels of Asake’s third album release, Lungu Boy, which features collaborations with heavyweights like Wizkid and Travis Scott. The album’s title, derived from the word meaning “ghetto” or “hood,” reflects Asake’s roots, but the artist is eager to transcend boundaries. “I don’t want to be just a guy from Africa, but a guy who came to this world and made a difference in music,” Asake told Apple Music, highlighting his global ambitions.
