Nigerian Afrobeats sensation Ololade Ahmed, popularly known as Asake or Mr Money, set tongues wagging after delivering a high-energy performance at Afro Future 2025 in Detroit on Sunday, August 17.

Although his electrifying stage presence won over the crowd, it was his dramatic new hairstyle that truly stole the spotlight and sent social media buzzing.
Clips and photos from the event revealed the singer rocking a short, wavy wig in a bright blue shade, a major switch from his previous signature looks that included close-cropped cuts and golden-blonde styles. Known for reinventing his appearance to mirror his musical evolution, Asake’s latest experiment has generated an even bigger storm of mixed reactions online.
Some fans couldn’t help but point out similarities between his new look and the wig worn by Chioma, wife of Davido, during their Miami wedding. The resemblance quickly birthed memes, playful jokes, and even speculation about possible links or subtle rivalry, fueling widespread discussions across platforms.
Beyond the jokes, a segment of fans has expressed concern, suggesting that Asake’s frequent image shifts combined with his recent exit from YBNL Records might reflect deeper personal struggles. For these fans, his changing looks are viewed as more than fashion statements, but possible glimpses into his emotional journey.
Regardless of the motive, Asake’s blue wig has dominated the conversation, reaffirming his ability to blend artistry with personal branding and proving once again that his image remains as influential as his music.
