Asake Ventures into the Cannabis Business with ‘… Energy 5K’ Brand, Sparking Online Debate

Award-winning Nigerian singer Ahmed Ololade, better known as Asake, has made headlines again, this time with the launch of his cannabis (Igbaux) brand, Giran Energy 5K, in California, USA.
The move has sparked a flurry of discussions and debates online, as fans and critics alike weigh in on the singer’s new business venture.
The ‘Joha‘ crooner shared the news on his Instagram story, unveiling photos of his new cannabis brand, much to the excitement of his followers.
Asake’s entry into the cannabis industry follows in the footsteps of fellow Nigerian superstar Burna Boy, who launched his ‘Brkfst‘ cannabis brand in 2022, making Asake the second Nigerian celebrity to tap into this growing market.
The launch of Giran Energy 5K comes at a time when Asake is already surrounded by controversy, following his recent appearance, which triggered mixed reactions on social media. While some admired his new facial tattoos, others speculated about possible personal struggles.
Adding to the buzz, the singer—who recently parted ways with Olamide’s YBNL records—celebrated his 30th birthday by gifting himself a brand-new Tesla. Asake’s new business move and personal milestones have undoubtedly kept his name trending, with fans and critics alike eagerly sharing their opinions on his evolving journey.
