He recently had his say while speaking with the GQ magazine, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, the first step he took was getting a neck tattoo so he can’t get a real job in Nigeria, and that made him focus on improving his music.
Asake added that even if he achieved massive fame as a musician in just 2 years, it took longer years of practice.
His words, “In Nigeria, if you have a tattoo on your neck, you can’t work anywhere. I can’t work for any company. I can’t sell anything.
I was tired when I got the tattoo. I felt like, I don’t want to keep trying.
The second step is just working really, really, hard. You have to understand: I got there in two years, but I’ve been working for years.
People are counting the days you’re successful. They don’t count the days you’ve been working toward it. Nobody gives a fuck about that.”
WOW.
