Daniel Regha decided to weigh in on the situation and give his hot takes. According to him, both artists reigned at different times and comparing them was not the best.

He noted that getting the public to enjoy and stream one's music these days is a hassle and gave kudos to Asake for doing so effortlessly.

In his words:

"Prime Lil Kesh was a sensation which no-one can deny, but comparing him to Asake is unnecessary cos Asake might not have reached his prime yet; And even if he has, the comparison is still kinda pointless since both thrived in different times.
"It's not easy to maintain relevance in this streaming era & Asake has managed to do just that, which simply proves that he could've easily thrived in the mid or late 2010s."
