Asake discloses, “I Was A Dancer, But Poverty Made Me Become A Singer”
Widely known as Asake, Ahmed Oloade, is a Nigerian singer who has made a fresh disclosure.
He admitted that his lack of money encouraged him to seek a career in music and continue by saying that his parent loves listening to music.
In a recent interview with ABC News, he made this revelation.
The 24-year-old claimed that he was formerly a dancer but switched to singing because dacing could not really pay all his bills.
The ‘Mr Money With The Vibe’ singer claimed that his father’s early introduction to music was a major factor in igniting his passion for singing.
He stated, “My parents used to play me a lot of classical Songs. They love listening to songs. The kind of father I have is the one that will wake up in the morning and have one cigarette then loud music.
“At the end of the day, I feel like I can actually sing. Then I added music to it. Maybe because I know how to dance then I know how to bounce on music. I actually don’t want to be a musician in the first place. I just wanted to dance. It feels like water. I love everything that comes with dancing.
“But at the end of the day, after dancing I fell in love with having money too. Then I started thinking about it, is dance going to give me the kind of money I want?”
