Nigerian superstar Asake continues his dominant run by collaborating with French rap sensation Tiakola for their new single titled BADMAN GANGSTA. This record serves as a high-octane entry in the M$NEY project, arriving via GIRAN Republic and EMPIRE. Produced by the prolific P.Priime alongside AoD, the two-minute track utilizes a fusion of fast-paced Amapiano rhythms and modern European drill textures. Born Ahmed Ololade in Lagos, Asake first achieved explosive recognition with his unique blend of Fuji and Afrobeats, leading to his record-breaking debut album Mr. Money with the Vibe. His career history includes multiple sold-out arena shows and a reputation for being one of the most consistent hitmakers in the African music industry. These milestones establish his authority as a global cultural ambassador, seamlessly blending indigenous sounds with international trends.

BADMAN GANGSTA demonstrates a creative direction that prioritizes cross-cultural synergy and a narrative of street-inspired confidence. The record features a guest verse from Tiakola, a French artist of Congolese descent who has a history of major achievements, including his chart-topping debut Mélo and a reputation for bringing melodic flair to the French rap scene. Tiakola’s presence on the track adds a smooth, rhythmic layer that complements Asake’s energetic Yoruba delivery, reflecting a synergy born from their shared influence in their respective regions. This release follows Asake’s recent single Forgiveness, marking a definitive entry in the twenty-twenty-six music calendar. Fans can stream the track on all digital platforms as the duo delivers a polished production centered on the “badman” persona—assertive, stylish, and unphased by the noise.
