When asked about his Grammy nomination and how Tyla won the superstar said he did not feel like he lost. Most nominated artist(Asake, Davido, Ayra Star) all said that the important thing to come from the Grammy was the recognition given to Afrobeat Genre and their ability to be there. He expressed gracefully that “It’s not a loss for me. I might just get more next year. But in my head, I was not even taking it too seriously. I appreciate the fact that they nominated me—I won’t lie, that’s a lot to me. Even me, I didn’t see that coming this soon. I’m relaxed about it. Maybe because I know there will be a day that win will come".

He conveyed that he is working on his third album. He expressed that he is a spiritual person and listens for direction. Asake said, “I’ll never limit myself on one thing. I might wake up tomorrow and tell you I want to do an all-reggae album. Maybe that’s where God just directs me to".
