Popular comedian AY Makun has shared that Asake once sought his support for his music. He recently shared a 2019 message he received from the “Lonely At The Top” crooner, and fans have been reacting.
Reflecting on Asake’s journey, AY disclosed that he remembered receiving a direct message from the singer in 2019, although he did not see it at the time.
AY added that he is not recounting the request to take credit for his subsequent success, but to highlight the singer’s rise to his talent, hard work and God.
His words, “I remember when this boy sent me a message in my DM on Instagram. I didn’t even get to see this message on time. This was years ago, sometime during 2019.
I’m not saying all of this to take any credit. That glory belongs to God and his talent and of course the hard work that is put into all of this.”
