I made "Love Nwantinti" in early 2019, thereabouts. At the time, there was a lot of waiting going
on… like, stagnation. The label I was signed to at the time was merging with another label, so
things were on standstill for a very long time. I made the song in Victoria Island, Lagos. I was in
the living room, my former manager, Favor was around. Uh, some producers too. I was on the keyboard,
then I made this nice mid-tempo beat and did a freestyle on it. I freestyled verse one, did a
chorus, then I think, that night or the next morning, I did verse two and three. The original plan
was to replace the chorus with actual words later on, but I ended up not doing that. Over time,
after that night, a few changes happened to the song. Like, I had a co-producer, Tempoe come make
some additions to the drums. I had the elementary drums and he basically added some detail to it.
But, that very first day was when the vibe was laid. And yeah, the rest is history, you know? I'd
say the journey of this record is basically a spark that caused a whole forest fire.
