Nigerian rapper Emeka Akumefule, better known by his stage name Blaqbonez, revealed that YBNL artist, Ahmed Ololade, aka Asake, made significant contributions to his musical career.
Prior to becoming well-known, Asake assisted BlaqBonez in the studio with background vocals, the rapper revealed, in a recent interview with reality star Kimoprah, on Hip TV’s Trending program.
Blaqbonez asserts that he has been friends with Fireboy, Asake, Superboi Cheque, Yhemolee, and Zamorra ever since they started working together at Obafemi Awolowo University in Ife, Osun State.
He said,
“I have known Fireboy, Asake, Superboi Cheque, Yhemolee, and Zamorra since OAU days.
Zamorra and Asake have always been great at backups. You know this thing Asake does now with his vocals, he has understood this thing from time.
So, I used to ask him to help me figure out these things. They’ve always been influential in my music journey because I feel like every phase of BlaqBonez helped build the BlaqBonez that I am now.”
