Here are key details to know about Asake’s highly anticipated album ‘M$ney’ to be released in 2026.
The wait is almost over for the “Lungu Boy” faithful. Afrobeats powerhouse Asake has officially set the stage for his next era, announcing that his highly anticipated fourth studio album, M$NEY, will arrive on May 1st, 2026.
The announcement, which sent shockwaves through social media this morning, marks a pivotal moment in the singer’s career as he leans into his “Mr. Money” persona with a fresh creative direction and a brand-new institutional backing.
Here is the breakdown of everything you need to know about the upcoming project.
The Essentials: Release Date and Tracklist
Fans won’t have to wait long to dive into the new sound. Asake confirmed the project is locked for a global release at the start of next month.
- Album Title: M$NEY
- Release Date: May 1, 2026
- Total Tracks: 13
- Primary Labels: Giran Republic & EMPIRE
To mark the announcement, Asake shared a visual documenting the creation of a massive marble structure in his likeness, crafted by Iraqi-Dutch artist Arthar Jabar. This “monumental” approach suggests that M$NEY isn’t just an album title, but a statement on his legacy and the “regal” status he has attained within the global music landscape.
A New Chapter: Giran Republic
The most significant detail accompanying the M$NEY rollout is the official debut of Giran Republic. Following reports of a quiet departure from Olamide’s YBNL Nation—where Asake achieved historic success—this album marks his first full-length project under his own imprint. By partnering directly with EMPIRE, Asake is signaling a shift toward full creative independence and global ownership.
The Lead Singles
If the lead singles are any indication, M$NEY will be a genre-bending journey. The album is anchored by three tracks that have already dominated the airwaves over the past few months:
- “Why Love”: A melodic reflection that showcases Asake’s signature Fuji-infused vocals.
- “Worship”: A high-octane collaboration with world-renowned producer DJ Snake, blending spiritual themes with global dance floor energy.
- “Badman Gangsta”: A gritty, rhythmic anthem featuring French superstar Tiakola, bridging the gap between Lagos and Paris.
