Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Asake has once again proven that family comes first. The “Lonely At The Top” singer surprised his father, Fatai Odunsi (popularly known as Malo), with a brand new 2025 Toyota Prado in a heartwarming gesture that has captured the attention of fans worldwide. The generous gift comes after months of public family tension and appears to signal a renewed bond between father and son.
The Asake gifts father Toyota Prado moment, was shared across social media platforms, showing the emotional reaction as Malo received the keys to the luxury SUV. The 2025 Toyota Prado represents one of the most sought-after vehicles in Nigeria’s luxury automobile market, known for its rugged durability, spacious interior, and prestige status.
This isn’t the first time Asake has shown such generosity toward his parents. The Grammy-nominated artist has a documented history of taking care of his family since achieving fame. In 2023, a video surfaced showing Asake presenting his father with both a house and a car shortly after his rise to stardom. The throwback footage resurfaced earlier this year amid public disputes, proving that the singer had been supporting his father long before recent events.
Asake has also shown similar love to his mother. Just weeks ago, the “Sungba” hitmaker documented the delivery of a brand-new G-Wagon G63 he purchased for his mother on his Instagram story. That same week, he added a 2025 Brabus G800 to his own growing luxury car collection.
The generous gift arrives after a period of public tension between Asake and his father. Earlier this year, Malo had accused Asake of neglecting him despite his fame, with a viral clip showing Asake’s father appealing for support and expressing disappointment. The accusations sparked widespread debate among fans and observers.
However, the resurfacing of the 2023 gift video told a different story, one of a son who had already provided significantly for his father. Asake addressed the issue at the time, acknowledging that Fatai Odunsi is his father but dismissing claims of abandonment. He emphasized that he has continuously supported him financially despite the ongoing accusations.
The new 2025 Toyota Prado now serves as a powerful statement that the bond between father and son remains strong. Sources close to the family suggest the gift represents a fresh start and mutual understanding after months of healing.
Social media erupted with mixed reactions to the news. Some fans celebrated the gesture as proof of Asake’s good heart, while others reflected on the complexities of family relationships in the spotlight. One fan commented on the earlier controversy: “This Instagram can destroy a relationship built for a lifetime in a day. How can anyone explain this now? This clearly shows he didn’t abandon his dad”.
Others noted the pattern of generosity. Asake, who celebrated his 30th birthday in January 2025 by gifting himself a Tesla Cybertruck , clearly believes in sharing his blessings with those closest to him.
The “Mr Money” hitmaker continues to dominate both music charts and headlines. His sophomore album Work Of Art has cemented his place in Afrobeats history, and his international tour continues to draw massive crowds across Europe and North America. But for Asake, moments like this, gifting his father a luxury vehicle and mending family bonds, may ultimately matter more than any award or sold-out show.
As one fan aptly put it on social media: “Taking responsibility for your child is a must, but your child taking care of you is a blessing”. For Fatai Odunsi, that blessing just arrived in the form of a 2025 Toyota Prado.
