Asake Announces 'In God We Trust' World Tour Featuring Uncle Waffles

Nigerian Afrobeats sensation Asake has officially unveiled his upcoming 'In God We Trust' world tour, a 13-date concert series supporting his fourth studio album, 'M$ney.' The tour, which kicks off on July 4 at the Afro Nation festival in Portugal, will span major arenas across North America and Europe. Notably, the tour will feature South African DJ and artist Uncle Waffles as a special guest for select performances, further highlighting the collaborative spirit currently driving the African music scene.

This announcement marks a significant milestone in Asake’s rapid international ascent. Following his successful 'Lungu Boy' tour, which included a sold-out performance at Madison Square Garden in 2024, the artist is returning to New York to headline the Barclays Center. His ability to consistently secure large-scale arena bookings underscores the growing global demand for Afrobeats and the commercial viability of African artists in Western markets.

The inclusion of Uncle Waffles as a supporting act is a strategic move that bridges the gap between West African Afrobeats and the Amapiano sounds dominating South Africa. By pairing these two powerhouse performers, the tour is positioned to capture a broader cross-section of the global diaspora. As Asake continues to leverage his Grammy-nominated status to reach larger venues, this tour serves as a testament to the genre's enduring momentum and its capacity to command major international stages.
