Asake Announces Fourth Album MONEY for May 1 Release, Fans Anticipate Another Hit Era

The project marks another major milestone for the singer, who has consistently delivered chart-topping music and built a reputation as one of Africa’s most dominant stars.

The announcement also signals the end of Asake’s post-tour break, as many fans believe the singer is ready to begin another era of hit records, sold-out shows, and viral moments.

Asake began teasing the project through a series of eye-catching social media posts. One of the clips showed him in the studio at the microphone, hinting that final touches were being made on the album. The short preview instantly fueled anticipation among supporters eager for new music.

He also shared a cryptic “Bureaus de change” message, which many fans linked to the album’s money-inspired title. The post has sparked speculation that the project may centre on themes of hustle, wealth, success, and the realities of fame.

Excitement grew further when Asake’s mentor and YBNL boss, Olamide, shared a studio photo with the caption, “Asake is cooking in the studio.”

The simple statement was enough to send fans into a frenzy, with many interpreting it as a sign that something special is coming. Some have even started speculating that Olamide could appear on the album, given their long-standing musical relationship.

Another major talking point followed after Asake was seen vibing with rapper Blaqbonez to an unreleased song reportedly titled 'Chanel'. Reports say the pair have known each other since their university days.

The clip immediately sparked calls for a collaboration, with many fans saying the chemistry between both artists sounded promising and would make a strong addition to the upcoming project.

MONEY follows an already successful run of albums that helped cement Asake’s place at the top of the industry. His previous projects, Mr Money With The Vibe, Work of Art, and Lungu Boy, delivered hit songs and received widespread commercial success.

Through his unique blend of Fuji influences, street-hop energy, and modern Afrobeats sound, Asake has become one of the most recognisable voices in contemporary African music.

With sold-out performances in 2026 and a rapidly growing global fan base, expectations for MONEY are already sky-high. Social media users have flooded comment sections with excitement, predicting another chart-dominating release.

Some joked that they are already preparing their playlists, while others said Asake rarely misses an album.

As the release date draws closer, all eyes are now on Asake. Whether through surprise collaborations, street anthems, or introspective records, the singer has repeatedly shown an ability to reinvent himself while staying true to his sound.
