Shortly after unveiling the visuals for his song 'Only Me,' the Christian community expressed displeasure over certain depictions in the music video.

In the video, Asake, along with backup singers and dancers, portrayed themselves as priests conducting a mass in a Catholic church, adorned with angelic rings on their heads.

Renowned relationship adviser, Solomon Buchi, and numerous Nigerians took to social media to criticize Asake's choice of props.

Buchi labeled Asake's actions as "disrespectful" and questioned why Christians continued to support his music. In his words:

“Asake keeps disrespecting the Christian faith in his music videos. Dramatizing giving the Eucharist, robed up in priestly regalia for a music video that has no connection with Christianity is disrespectful.

In his Bandana video, he depicts black goats trooping into the church, with cloven tongues of fire above weird men. Asake, I think, is a Muslim. Why doesn’t he go above and beyond to embarrass his Muslim faith in this same way?

Why do Christians even listen to these musicians who bluntly disrespect Christianity?”
