Nigerian rapper Emeka Akumefule often known as Blaqbonez, has asserted that he is fifty times bigger than Grammy-nominated vocalist Asake.

The rapper said this in response to an unearthed 2019 tweet from then-up-and-coming artist Asake requesting that he follow him back.

According to an X user with the handle @thejacobsss, it's ridiculous to put Asake higher than Blaqbonez. The rapper responded that he is a far greater artist than Asake.

The X user wrote, “Asake is big, but saying he’s bigger than Blaqbonez is pure comedy walai,” the fan wrote.

Blaqbonez concurred: “Like people are funny. I’m 50x bigger. I sold out the O2 Arena in 1 minute; it took him longer.”

Despite Blaqbonez's claims to be bigger than Asake, the Yoga crooner has sold out the 02 Arena twice, whereas he hasn't.
