Nigerian hip-hop artiste Emeka Akumefule, commonly known as Blaqbonez, has disclosed that rave of the moment, Asake, used to be his backup singer before becoming famous.
He said he has been friends with his colleagues, Fireboy, Asake, Superboi Cheque, Yhemolee, and Zamorra from the early days of their careers at Obafemi Awolowo University, Ife, Osun State.
The ‘S*x Over Love’ singer revealed that Zamorra and Asake used to help him out in the studio with background vocals.
BlaqBonez revealed this in a recent interview with reality personality Kimoprah on Hip TV’s Trending.
He said, “I have known Fireboy, Asake, Superboi Cheque, Yhemolee, and Zamorra since OAU days.
“Zamorra and Asake have always been great at backups. You know this thing Asake does now with his vocals, he has understood this thing from time.
“So, I used to ask him to help me figure out these things. They’ve always been influential in my music journey because I feel like every phase of BlaqBonez helped build the BlaqBonez that I am now.”
