According to Asake, it is impossible to please any one. He added that his father wants to cajole him despite the fact he has always reached out to him.

“You can’t please everyone, you can’t please the world, anything you are doing just do it for God. My own father wants to cajole me even though I have always sent a lot of money to him. I have struggled for so many years but they want to make life hard & tiring for me,” he sang in the video.
