Nigerian Afrobeats musician, Ahmed Ololade, widely known as Asake, has continued his international tour with a performance at Paris Fashion Week.
The 31-year-old singer performed tracks from his fourth studio album, M$NEY, at Christian Louboutin’s menswear presentation in France.
The Paris showcase comes shortly after the artist hosted an exclusive, one-night-only concert at London’s historic Theatre Royal Drury Lane on Sunday, June 21, 2026. The event, organised in partnership with Spotify, allowed top listeners to experience live performances of tracks from the new album, which was released in May 2026.
Accompanied by a live orchestra and the renowned band, The Compozers, the musician performed fan favourites alongside four unreleased tracks.
According to a statement from his management, the entire London performance was recorded and will soon be released as a concert film on Spotify.
“Building on the success of the show, Asake has announced M$NEY: The Live Album, a special live recording of the project that captures the energy and musical depth of the Theatre Royal Drury Lane performance,” the management statement read.
Upon its official release, M$NEY topped digital streaming charts in over 19 countries, including Nigeria, and peaked at number eight on the United States charts. Following the album’s commercial success, global music data platform Kworb ranked Asake as the number 15 digital artist in the world.
The Afrobeats artist has also achieved significant critical recognition from the Recording Academy, earning consecutive Grammy Award nominations for Best African Music Performance at both the 66th and 67th editions of the awards for his hit tracks “Amapiano” and “MMS.”
