Lonely At The Top (Remix) is a single from Asake featuring H.E.R., released November 15, 2023 under YBNL Nation and EMPIRE. Running 2 minutes 37 seconds and classified as R&B/Soul on Apple Music, it takes the original Lonely At The Top — a standout from Asake's second studio album Work Of Art, released June 2023 — and reworks it with H.E.R., the Grammy Award-winning American R&B singer and multi-instrumentalist born Gabriella Wilson. The remix adds a warmer, more soulful vocal dimension to what was already one of Asake's most melodically complete records, with H.E.R.'s contribution bringing her signature understated R&B tone into conversation with Asake's Fuji-influenced delivery.

Asake ft. Stormzy – Suru (Lungu Boy Album)The remix is part of a broader pattern of Asake's 2023 run deliberately crossing into global R&B and pop territory — the same year also saw him collaborate with Burna Boy (Sungba Remix) and reach a Western audience that had followed his Calm Down-era peers. For H.E.R., who won five Grammy Awards and an Academy Award for Best Original Song before her thirtieth birthday, the Asake collaboration gave her first significant connection to the Afrobeats wave at its commercial peak. The Lonely At The Top EP on Apple Music also includes a Dance Remix version, extending the original's life across multiple release formats.
Rating: 8/10.
