Asake has announced details of a new album and shared the first single. Work of Art will be released on June 16 and is preceded by "Amapiano," a collaboration with fellow Nigerian artist Olamide. A video for the song can be seen below.
In addition to "Amapiano," Work Of Art will also feature the previously released singles "2:30" and "Yoga." His most recent album, Mr. Money With The Vibe, was named as one of The FADER's best albums of 2022. "Peace Be Unto You" from that album was also named on our songs list.
Work Of Art appears ahead of a summer of festival dates for Asake, including appearances at Afro Nation in Miami and Broccoli City in Washington, D.C. in July. Last year a show he performed at in London was the scene of a fatal crush that left two people dead and more injured.
