Only Me is a single from Asake released January 2024 under YBNL Nation and EMPIRE. Produced by BlaiseBeatz, it arrived as his first release of the year and served as a bridge between the Work of Art album era and the incoming Lungu Boy campaign. The song followed Lonely at the Top (Remix) with H.E.R. — which had crossed the 2023-to-2024 boundary as a record that showed Asake operating confidently in international pop territory.

Asake – Forgiveness (M$NEY Album)Only Me is a solo declaration. The title and the content are aligned — this is Asake in full self-assured mode, no features needed, the music speaking on its own. BlaiseBeatz has been one of the central figures in shaping the sound of Nigerian Afropop since the YBNL era and his production on Only Me gives it the warmth and rhythmic complexity that Asake's delivery needs. After the relative vulnerability of some of Work of Art's emotional content, Only Me is the reset — a reminder that the confidence is still there and has not been replaced by introspection.
Rating: 8/10.
