Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Ahmed Ololade, aka Asake, says he is not brooding his Grammy loss to South Africa's Tyla.
Torizone recalls that Tyla's 'Water' defeated Asake's 'Amapiano' and other Nigerian songs to win the maiden Best African Music Performance category at the 66th Grammys.
However, speaking in a recent interview with GQ magazine, the 'Mr Money With The Vibe' crooner said he doesn't take it as a loss.
He is upbeat that he might get more Grammy nominations and probably win next year.
"It [Grammy loss] is not a loss for me. I might just get more next year. In my head, I was not even taking it too seriously," he said.
On his mind space for his sophomore album, 'Work Of Art,' Asake said: "People don't really know me because I'm quiet.
"So everybody started seeing me as mystery. 'Work of Art' is just for them to know me. You have to understand I'm human, but you can't just deny the heart in me."
