"The sweetness of his sound inspired me to use sugar" - Okechukwu Meshack

Speaking briefly with Legit.ng, Meshack said he had always been a fan of Asake but became completely after falling in love with, Dupe, a track off his debut album, Mr Money With The Vibes.

"Personally, I would say that I am a huge fan of his sound...the groove, the flows, the emotion! I would say that the sound 'DUPE' in his latest album sealed everything !! While making this portrait I mostly listened to it and 'Organise' on a repeat. It kind of reminds me to my orderly, disciplined with your work and steadfastly grateful to God in everything.

The visual artist equally disclosed that he uses salt most of the time but was moved to use sugar for Asake due to the 'sweetness' of his sound.

"On a norm, I draw mostly with SALT but the sweetness I derived from the sound inspired the use of SUGAR for the very first time in my life!!! I can sure say that it turned out beautiful!

Yet to be acknowledged by most of the famous artistes he has drawn, Meshack disclosed that some influential TikTokers have recognized his work.

"I have not yet been acknowledged by any of these artists per se, but a few influential Tiktokers I drew have gotten to see and comment on their works via my TikTok handle while Softmadeit and John Merry are the only ones that have supported by reposting on their stories. Regardless of all these, my supporters on my various handles mean a lot as they keep me going!"
