"Afrobeats Artistes' Collaboration Would Increase Global Traction" - Asa Asika

By Oluwarantimi Oludase 

‎The manager of Afrobeats star Davido, Asa Asika, has called on Afrobeats artistes to prioritize collaboration to increase the genre's global acceptance.


‎The long-term manager of the DMW boss made this known during a recent appearance on the Afropolitan podcast, where he claimed that the Afrobeats genre would have gained more global recognition if Davido, Wizkid, and other artistes were collaborating.


‎He cited how Latin music global recognition was due to collaborations among the likes of J Balvin, Nicky Jam, Bad Bunny, and other singers.


‎He said:
‎“Afrobeat would have been bigger if Davido, Wizkid and the likes of others were collaborating. I might be wrong but the probability of Afrobeat being more successful and bigger is a thing. Our genre ticket values at international shows will be stronger.”
