Nigerian singer Asake has set the internet on fire with his bold new look. The former YBNL artist
took to social media to debut his freshly shaved moustache and a set of eye-catching new facial tattoos. His transformation has left Nigerians in shock, with many fans declaring he now looks “unrecognizable,” especially after he made headlines last year for cutting off his signature dreads.

As expected, the reactions have been a mix of surprise, confusion, and, of course, hilarious commentary. Here’s what social media users are saying about Asake’s new appearance:

“Is this Asake??”

“Omo, why am I finding it hard to believe the other person is Asake?” 😂

One fan who has always been a huge supporter of Asake since his rise to fame shared their thoughts: “As a big fan of Asake who has never seen any wrong in him since he blew up, I’d just say this new tattoos didn’t enter. They don’t look good on him.”

Others have expressed concern, stating: “Face tattoos are not our culture. What’s happening to Asake, for goodness’ sake?”

Another fan added: “Asake just spoil him face with this face tattoo!”

But it’s not just disappointment; there’s a hint of nostalgia as well, with some users pointing out how these changes have made Asake seem more distant from his previous self.

“The reaction to Asake’s ‘new look’ is so funny because y’all are turning into the aunties/uncles you hate so much.”

Yet another user questioned the trend of body modifications in the entertainment industry, asking: “I still can’t wrap my head around why people feel the need to modify their bodies when they become famous. Are these body modifications a prerequisite for fame now?”

A few fans, clearly concerned about Asake’s new appearance, expressed they no longer felt like he was targeting them as his audience: “Baba drew a dollar sign on his face, haaaa. It’s like we are not his target audience anymore.”

Finally, one follower gave the singer a word of advice: “Asake, try and take it easy, ooo. Just take am easy, my guy. I see no need for the facial tattoos, because you are already big. There should be some level of decency left.”

Asake’s new look has certainly sparked a lot of chatter, What do you think about Asake’s transformation? Let us know in the comments!
