The Nigerian Afrobeat artist Adedamola Adefolahan, best known by his stage as Fireboy DML, has admitted that he was drunk when he recorded his famous song Peru.
In an interview with Deezer, Fireboy described what went into his song and the songwriting process. Fireboy stated that he wrote and recorded his song “Peru” in San Francisco, California.
When asked about the creation of his song Peru, Fireboy confessed that he was tipsy in the studio and wanted to do something in the booth, which resulted in “Peru.”
On my first trip to America, I was supposed to go meet my empire partners and just vibe; instead, I made a courteous call to Shizzi, who created the song in his studio. I was a little tipsy that night at the studio, so I simply stepped into the booth.
He was the one who kept the beat. “Um, that’s a feeling,” I said. And I was basically simply singing my narrative in 30 to 35 minutes. It’s just a little guy who has discovered himself in a new environment and is prepared to try new things. “
Fireboy told the host how excited he was about his new collaboration with Ed Sheeran, to remix the song “Peru.”
Ed Sheeran fell in love with the song the moment he heard it. He was overjoyed with the entire process and the overall vibe of the song’s composition. He sought the lyrics as well as the meanings of each word. He also completed his own verse in 30 minutes.
