Popular Nigerian R&B artiste, Asa has expressed her admiration for controversial fellow music artiste, Naira Marley.
The France-based star made this known in Lagos as a guest on Cool FM’s The Roadshow hosted by Kaylah Oniwo and N6.
During the interview, which focused on the artiste’s new album, tour, and ideal collaborations, she disclosed that she considered the Soapy crooner, whose real name is Afeez Fashola, “awesome”.
She also declared herself a “Marlian”, a sobriquet for Naira Marley’s teeming ardent fans.
“I think I’m a Marlian. I love him, I think he is awesome,” Asa retorted playfully.
She further revealed that she started out as a rapper before quitting the genre when she realised she sucked at it.
“People who knew me in the beginning. I started as a rapper but I know I sucked,” she said.
“I love rap music, I listen to Drake, I just started listening to 2 Chainz. I like really tall men, he’s not bad I can manage. I like TI, I like G Eazy. I love Cardi B,” Asa stated.
