Nigerian singer Ahmed Ololade, popularly known as Asake, has officially confirmed his exit from YBNL Nation, Olamide’s record label, and unveiled his own record label, Giran Republic.

This move comes after speculations of a controversial split, which Asake silenced with the release of his latest single, “Why Love,” under his new imprint .

Asake’s departure from YBNL Nation marks the end of a three-year partnership that began in February 2022.

Despite his exit, Asake will maintain his distribution deal with Empire, which he signed in July 2022 .

This ensures his music will continue to enjoy international reach, just as his previous projects have dominated streaming platforms and Billboard charts.

Asake’s decision to launch his own record label, Giran Republic, signals a new chapter in his career, as he joins the ranks of independent African music entrepreneurs. Fans and industry watchers eagerly anticipate his next moves under his own label, as he carves out his legacy beyond the YBNL umbrella.
