It was already good enough without him,&#8221; he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But he says the &#8220;only thing&#8221; on his mind when he got Ed Sheeran involved with the remix was how it was &#8220;going to be amazing for Afrobeats.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;It&#8217;s the selfless mind-set that comes with being an Afrobeats artist. Everything you do is for the culture.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the song, Ed sings a couple of lines in Yoruba, a language predominantly used by millions of people across West Africa, especially in south western Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;He did great,&#8221; says Fireboy, who&#8217;s real name is Adedamola Adefolahan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fast-forward, and now the Peru remix is only being kept off the top of the UK Official Singles Chart by We Don&#8217;t Talk About Bruno, from Disney movie Encanto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;It would be amazing for the whole Afrobeats genre if it got to number one,&#8221; he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The remix with Ed Sheeran landed late last year, but Peru had already become Fireboy&#8217;s biggest streaming hit to date and spent four weeks at the top of the Official Afrobeats Chart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meeting Ed was &#8216;natural&#8217;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anyone looking for any hidden or deep meaning in the track will be disappointed. As the song lyrics tell us, Fireboy performed it spontaneously after arriving off a flight from Miami.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He says he didn&#8217;t overthink the song and recorded it as an off-the-cuff freestyle during an unplanned studio session last July.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;I knew I had a very beautiful, catchy song and when you&#8217;ve got a catchy hook in Afrobeats, you literally have a hit already .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"818\" data-attachment-id=\"6452\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/towncryyers.com\/index.php\/2022\/01\/31\/peru-how-ed-sheeran-helped-fireboy-dmls-hit-go-global\/how-fireboy-dml-found-a-creative-spark-with-ed-sheeran-on-his-peru-remix\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/towncryyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/How-Fireboy-DML-Found-a-Creative-Spark-With-Ed-Sheeran-on-His-Peru-Remix-.jpg?fit=1056%2C844&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1056,844\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"How-Fireboy-DML-Found-a-Creative-Spark-With-Ed-Sheeran-on-His-Peru-Remix-\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/towncryyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/How-Fireboy-DML-Found-a-Creative-Spark-With-Ed-Sheeran-on-His-Peru-Remix-.jpg?fit=300%2C240&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/towncryyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/How-Fireboy-DML-Found-a-Creative-Spark-With-Ed-Sheeran-on-His-Peru-Remix-.jpg?fit=1024%2C818&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/towncryyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/How-Fireboy-DML-Found-a-Creative-Spark-With-Ed-Sheeran-on-His-Peru-Remix--1024x818.jpg?resize=1024%2C818&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6452\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/towncryyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/How-Fireboy-DML-Found-a-Creative-Spark-With-Ed-Sheeran-on-His-Peru-Remix-.jpg?resize=1024%2C818&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/towncryyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/How-Fireboy-DML-Found-a-Creative-Spark-With-Ed-Sheeran-on-His-Peru-Remix-.jpg?resize=300%2C240&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/towncryyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/How-Fireboy-DML-Found-a-Creative-Spark-With-Ed-Sheeran-on-His-Peru-Remix-.jpg?resize=768%2C614&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/towncryyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/How-Fireboy-DML-Found-a-Creative-Spark-With-Ed-Sheeran-on-His-Peru-Remix-.jpg?w=1056&amp;ssl=1 1056w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption>Fireboy DML and Ed <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just before Christmas, Fireboy met Ed Sheeran face to face for the first time to record the video in New York.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;It was a great atmosphere,&#8221; he says. &#8220;I&#8217;ve listened to him for more than a decade and he&#8217;s the person who made me love the acoustic guitar.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8216;Blind devotion&#8217; to music<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fireboy has been making music since he was a child but the &#8220;spark&#8221; only ignited when he was in his second year at university.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;From that point on I was blind to everything else, including school and relationships. Music gives you a blind devotion and an obsession.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the success of Peru, Fireboy says he doesn&#8217;t want to have &#8220;too many lofty dreams and aspirations.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;That&#8217;s how you set yourself up for undue pressure.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But 2022 already looks like a busy year with US and UK tours, a third album and festival appearances, which he&#8217;s hinted may involve his new mate Ed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Stay tuned.
