Peru was written and recorded in San Francisco, California. It was my first time in the United States. I had just flown into San Francisco from

Miami. I was supposed to go and see my associates at Empire (record label) and just pay a courtesy visit to Shizzi who produced the song in the

studio. At the studio that night, I was tipsy. I wasn’t supposed to record that day but I got in the booth. He played the beats. I was like, oh,

that's a vibe. 30 - 35 minutes, I was done. I was literally just singing my story. It's just a young boy that found himself in a new place and is

willing to try out new stuff. Ed Sheeran heard the song and loved it. He was so excited about the whole process, you know, the whole vibe of making

the song. He asked for the lyrics, what every word meant and all that. And, in 30 minutes, he was done with his own verse too.
