Good Time (feat. Mel...

Blaqbonez, Mellissa

This is another song that's like a part of the spine of the album. This song and “Consistency,” I think, are the first

two songs on the album. I just love those songs so much. We linked up in Nigeria in March 2024, and we made the two

records that we put out, one for her, one for me. That was our first session ever. That was also my first session with

Black Culture (credited producer). It was just a seamless session. It was easy and a vibe. We were already having a good

time, as soon as Black Culture played the beat, you know, I just started flowing. Melissa came in with the hook,

mumbling the hook, and everything just fell into place so easily. I just always knew that that song was going to be on

the album, no matter what. It just felt different and was giving me Shank’s “Julie,” and I liked that feeling.

Who's Really Ra...

A-Q, Blaqbonez

Blaqbonez always wanted me to make a song that will go super viral. He’s like; “oh, you need to make

a record that will cement your legacy, a song that many Nigerians will know, will listen to”. So

when I was making God's Engineering 2 (previous album), we made ‘Family’. It didn't go as viral as

he wanted it to go. So when I was making God's Engineering 3, he was paying special interest in the

recording process. When I made the song called ‘Read the Signs’ with Terry Apala, Blaq was super

excited. He even helped me contact Terry to be on the record. He was like; “yo, this is the record.

You finally did it your way. You just have to put a budget behind this record, and it's going to go

super viral”. I was like, cool. It's supposed to be the single anyway. But then I told him that I'm

not going to make the album without him doing a verse. I wanted a rap verse. So before I wrapped up

the album, I called him and I was like, yo, I'm wrapping up the album and I need that verse. And he

was like, say less. I think two days later, I just got an email and he had recorded on a YouTube

beat. I listened to the verse and the hook and I was like, Oh, is this how you're feeling? He was

like, yeah, a lot had happened before he recorded the verse. He put down how he felt about what was

happening. I was like, okay, I jumped into the booth and dropped my own verse in like, maybe like

15, 20 minutes. But I held it back because I was still not certain because it was on a YouTube beat.

We sent it to a producer called Jxses. He was able to make a beat that matched what we were already

feeling - which is one of the hardest things to do. We didn't think of it as a single, right? We

just wanted it to be on the project. After I finished the album, I played it for my team and they

were like, yo, it's hard - and this should be the single. They were like, the hook, the chemistry,

everything is just a safer bet. And I spoke to the guys on the distribution side, and they were

like, yeah, they actually think that the song with Blaqbonez is the single. So we picked a date. And

we dropped it. The situation between Blaq and Modu (ODUMODUBLVCK), everything just escalated it. And

yeah, that's how the song came about. We were not in the same studio when we made the record. Blaq

recorded his part, sent it to me. I recorded my part, sent it to him. And people have been saying

that that's one of my best verses yet. That thing that Blaqbonez wanted me to always have, “I want

you to have this to cement your legacy”. I always wanted him to be the person that would give that

to me. I guess he finally did it on this record.
