When Asake Did Not Do Unto Others, What He Wants Others To Do Unto Him

T4T is not a religious person, in fact, he does not go to any religious gathering, but he can recall a portion of the Bible that admonishes one to “do unto others what you want others to do unto you." Afro pop artiste, Asake, is a Muslim, so, one can conveniently say he may not have heard or read that portion of the bible. But scholars who have read both the Bible and Quran have repeatedly said both holy books virtually preach same doctrines. So, it can also be argued that Asake may have come across something similar like the above portion in his holy book, the Quran.

So, why did he shoot a video where he and all characters in it wore a Christian priest’s cassocks? Not that T4T gives a hoot, but will people of his religion take it if a Nigerian artiste who is a Christian wears the robe of an Alfa or Imam in a music video? Some couple of months ago, Davido posted a video of one of his artistes on X and a mosque was used as a location, hell nearly came down! Death threats were flying upandan on Davido's head and he had to immediately pull the video down. And now, Asake believes nobody will threaten him in Nigeria even if he portrays the Pope in a music video and so brazenly did what he did. T4T cannot independently verify if he has pulled down the video but there is no news to that effect. But some Christians have literally drawn their swords out and not because they care really, but just to send a message to Asake and his likes that what they and their people can't take, they should not serve others.

If Asake allows the little stardom he has achieved so far get into his head and begins to trample on the religious belief of others while he and his likes forcefully protect their own, he is in a for a long ride in the entertainment industry.
