Last night, on Sunday, June 21, 2x GRAMMY-nominated Afrobeats icon Asake delivered a special one-night-only performance of his chart-topping album M$NEY at London’s historic Theatre Royal Drury Lane. Presented in partnership with Spotify, the intimate, invite-only event welcomed friends, family, and a number of Asake’s top Spotify listeners for an exclusive live experience.
The special evening marked Asake’s first time performing M$NEY live since the album’s release in May. Accompanied by a live orchestra, Asake sang hits from the project alongside four unreleased songs. The entire performance was filmed, with a full concert film to be released on Spotify in the coming days.
A bold meditation on gratitude, prosperity, spirituality, and ambition, M$NEY showcases Asake’s signature fusion of melodic innovation and Afrobeats rhythm. Upon release, M$NEY topped streaming charts in more than 19 countries, including Nigeria, and peaked at No. 8 in the United States. Following the album’s success, Asake was ranked the No. 15 digital artist globally by Kworb Data, joining a list that includes some of the world’s biggest music stars.
