Video: Asake - BADMAN GANGSTA ft Tiakola

With his most ambitious track to date, BADMAN GANGSTA, Afrobeats pioneer Asake has returned. This genre-defying duet with renowned French musician Tiakola is a masterwork of cross-cultural musical fusion. Distributed by Gamma, the song is a sultry yet sultry meditation on self-made success that skillfully combines languages, sounds, and cultural viewpoints to create a sun-drenched hymn that is both intensely personal and universally relatable.

The linguistic dance between Asake and Tiakola, who exchange lyrics in English, Yoruba, and French with amazing fluidity, is what makes the song so captivating. They create a dynamic tension that keeps listeners interested throughout by alternating between moments of bravado and raw vulnerability with contrasting yet complimentary flows.

The accompanying music video elevates the single's impact through bold, cinematic storytelling that perfectly channels the track's raw energy and borderless spirit. Shot in striking black and white, the visual narrative compiles intimate glimpses of Asake's elevated lifestyle, from backstage moments at Paris Fashion Week to creative sessions in studios around the world. The vintage aesthetic adds a timeless quality that reinforces the track's nostalgic musical elements while celebrating the global reach of contemporary African artistry.

Asake keeps up his goal of redefining Afrobeats' potential on the international scene with BADMAN GANGSTA. He maintains the authenticity and emotional depth that have made him one of the most unique voices in modern music while embracing influences from all genres in a delightfully genreless manner. Regardless of language or cultural background, the partnership with Tiakola demonstrates how great craftsmanship cuts beyond geographic borders and forges relationships that speak to universal human experiences.

The new release reinforces Asake's position as a visionary artist who understands that the future of music lies not in rigid categorization but in the beautiful complexity that emerges when different worlds collide. As anticipation builds for the Money album, BADMAN GANGSTA serves as a powerful statement of artistic intent, bold, boundary-breaking, and utterly irresistible.
