Violence Erupts as Asake Smashes Fan’s iPhone 16 Pro Max in Germany

In a shocking incident, Nigerian singer Asake has been filmed destroying a fan’s iPhone 16 Pro Max at a concert in Germany. The fan, Adeoti, shared the disturbing footage on social media, captioning it, “@asakemusic You broke my iPhone 16 pro Max. It’s not because they pissed off inside the nightclub that you are going to react like that towards a fan. Anyway, I still love you.” The video has gone viral, sparking a fierce reaction on social media, with many fans criticizing Asake’s aggressive behavior.

Onlookers, including prominent Twitter users such as @CuriousCourtnie, @Tony_runthings, @joseph_adegoke, and @Michaelmich_ed2, slammed Asake’s actions, describing them as “unnecessarily aggressive,” “rude,” and a reflection of a wider cultural problem. Asake’s fan, @princerollyajo, added their voice to the chorus of criticism, declaring that he had lost all respect for the singer.

Adeoti’s Instagram post captures the moment he tries to take a selfie with Asake before being interrupted, and the musician’s instant loss of temper. Although Asake has yet to publicly respond to the incident, the aftermath is dominating conversations on social media.
