Big talent, Ahmed Ololade, popularly known as Asake, has spoken about his Grammy award loss.
Asake was nominated in the last Grammy award nomination but he lost to South Africa singer, Tyla, in the Best African Music Performance Category.
Tyla’s song ‘Water’ swept off Asake and other nominees in the category.
But Asake said he was not bothered , in an interview with GQ magazine.
He thinks he has more Grammy nominations coming up and that maybe he will win soon.
He said: “It [Grammy loss] is not a loss for me. I might just get more next year. In my head, I was not even taking it too seriously.”
On his mind space for his sophomore album, ‘Work Of Art,’ Asake said: “People don’t really know me because I’m quiet. So everybody started seeing me as mystery.
‘Work of Art’ is just for them to know me. You have to understand I’m human, but you can’t just deny the heart in me.”
