Nigerian Afrobeats singer Asake has put forward four entries for consideration at the 2027 Grammy Awards, with his latest album and collaborations featuring Wizkid and DJ Snake listed across several categories.
The submissions were announced by his record label, Giran Republik, as the Recording Academy prepares for the 69th edition of the annual awards.
His album, M$NEY, has been submitted in the Album of the Year and Best Global Music Album categories, while Jogodo, his collaboration with Grammy-winning singer Wizkid, is being considered for Best African Music Performance.
Another entry, Gratitude, has been submitted for Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best African Music Performance. His collaboration with French DJ and record producer DJ Snake, titled Worship, is also listed for Best Dance Pop Recording.
The entries give Asake a presence across global music, African music and dance-pop categories as he seeks further recognition from the Recording Academy.
Prompt News reports the Grammy submissions come after the singer received two previous nominations, both in the Best African Music Performance category. His first came in 2024 for Amapiano, his collaboration with Olamide, while his second nomination followed in 2025 for MMS, a joint effort with Wizkid.
He did not win either award.
According to the Recording Academy, voting for the first round of the 2027 Grammy Awards will take place from October 12 to 22. The list of nominees is expected to be unveiled on November 16.
