Asake and British rapper Central Cee spotted together in Lagos, hints on possible collaboration
On the heels of his successful collaboration with top artists, Nigerian artist Asake might be gearing up for another collaboration, this time with British rapper Central Cee.
The “Lonely At The Top” crooner was spotted with Central Cee on June 7, 2024, seemingly on the set of a music video. Despite the excitement, the two have not yet released any songs together.
The unexpected meetup in Lagos drew a lot of fan support, with chants of “Central Cee, Asake” as bodyguards worked to keep the crowd at bay.
Besides this potential collaboration, Asake has been in high spirits. He was featured on the recently released albums of both Tems and Ayra Starr and has been making waves with his debut album on Spotify.
