“Is Libianca larger than Asake?

Date:

 

A few months ago, the online world was abuzz, with people criticizing Asake for his loss at the BET Awards. Many suggested he switch to singing in English, while others claimed his music was only popular within Nigeria. Some even recommended that he seek songwriting lessons from Libianca.

However, just last night, Asake performed to a packed 02 Arena, captivating an audience of over 20k. Were these attendees all Nigerians? No, the crowd included individuals of diverse nationalities who enthusiastically sang along to his tunes. With two successful albums under his belt, every track a hit, Asake has amassed an impressive body of work. Artists are often esteemed for the breadth of their artistic creations. It’s not fair to compare an artist with numerous hits to one with only a couple. While celebrating Libianca is warranted, sometimes the comparisons become outlandish. We assert that an artist’s value cannot be solely measured by numbers or awards.

Can Libianca fill the 02 Arena at present? Likely not. It might take several years for her to achieve such a feat. Yet, she did win an award over Asake. This demonstrates that awards aren’t always a direct representation of an artist’s worth.

If you persist in believing that Libianca surpasses Asake, perhaps your perspective is skewed. She undoubtedly possesses talent, but it’s important to refrain from elevating her prematurely to a level that necessitates hard work, consistency, and extensive marketing efforts to attain. Placing her on such a pedestal might lead her to focus more on showcasing her personal life than her music.

On a side note, it’s worth mentioning that Asake holds the distinction of being the first African artist to enter the 02 Arena in a customized helicopter.”
