The way FOLA and I worked on “Despacito” is almost like the way I made “Bizzy Body.” I invited him to my house. Ramoni (credited

producer) started playing chords, and he basically created the hook on the chords. He just sang the whole thing, and Ramoni and I

started working on how the beat would actually be. Then, I recorded my part, and that’s when FOLA actually heard it. At track

five, it felt like I needed to switch things up. We had come with mad energy from the beginning, so it felt like it was time to

soften the vibe a little bit, but it needed to be beautiful and still energetic. “Despacito” was the right song to transition

with. It's a hip-hop song, but it has some amapiano elements. I feel like it was giving me a version of AKA on soulful songs that

just connect in a way, and that’s what introduces “Nati” with Olamide.

I have to give a big shoutout to Vado. Kizz Daniel is another person who goes out of his way for me. I can’t thank him enough.

“lost” was actually written because people rarely sing about the ups and downs of love. No one talks about when you’re crying in

that corner of your room because that girl is not responding to your text. No one talks about when you’re feeling down because

that guy is acting anyhow. No one really talks about those parts, and that’s what “lost” is all about. It’s written in homage to

the bad sides of love. Having Kizz Daniel on the song changed its dimension. I wasn’t expecting the delivery to come out that way.

He really showed the big OG that he is. There are levels to this music thing, and Kizz Daniel is just at the top.

Obviously, a big shoutout to Captain BNXN; he’s such a great guy, and he loves me so much. He goes out of his way for me, and I

respect him so much. At that time, “alone” was BNXN’s favourite song. He was always posting the song on Snapchat and listening to

it. I would always appreciate him for posting the song. One day, I just summoned the courage and told myself I’d ask him to jump

on the remix with me. I just wanted to try. So, I told him, “This looks like your favourite song because you always post this

song, Baba mi. Could you please help me with a verse on the remix? It would really go a long way for me.” He didn’t respond

initially, but I charged it to the game because I always like to try things, even if they don’t work out. I just gave it a shot.

So, I already thought it wouldn’t happen, but three days after, he responded and told me, “Bad boy, send me the verse, let me give

it a try.” I got the verse back in less than 24 hours. It was mind-blowing. I didn’t believe it, but we went from there.
