Nigerian music doctor Sarz has disclosed he forced himself to produce ‘Longtime’, a track off Wizkid’s ‘Made In Lagos’ album.
The song featuring British rapper Skepta is another notable song from the ‘Made In Lagos’ album, which premiered in 2020.
Sarz noted that he already concluded he would not work the day the song was recorded, however, he had to psyche himself to put the beat together for them.
In the chat with Native Magazine, the veteran music producer added he was glad he produced the song for them despite being exhausted. In his words;
“I remember making the song in LA, and I was so tired that day. Wiz and Skep, I feel like they’d been trying to work for a while, but they hadn’t hit the right vibe or something.”
“I’ve experienced them in sessions before and I know, ok maybe nothing’s going to come out of it. So, on this day that they came into the studio, I had already blocked my mind from trying to do anything, but something kept telling me, “no just try, just try, see what happens.””
“So, I made the beat. I remember Skepta just kept listening to it for hours until he was ready to record. Once he recorded, we all knew it was banger, it’s just such a sick tune. So, I’m really glad that I psyched myself into making it because I was really tired, and I didn’t even want to do it.”
