I\u2019m sure they will still be inspired by the legend.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Few years ago, music producer, Sarz recalls how<a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/2021\/12\/16\/how-i-forced-myself-to-produce-longtime-by-wizkid-skepta-producer-sarz\/\"> he Forced himself To Produce \u2018Longtime\u2019 By Wizkid, Skepta\u00a0<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>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.<\/p>\n<p>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;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI remember making the song in LA, and I was so tired that day. Wiz and Skep, I feel like they\u2019d been trying to work for a while, but they hadn\u2019t hit the right vibe or something.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve experienced them in sessions before and I know, ok maybe nothing\u2019s 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, \u201cno just try, just try, see what happens.\u201d\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, 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\u2019s just such a sick tune. So, I\u2019m really glad that I psyched myself into making it because I was really tired, and I didn\u2019t even want to do it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sarz asserts that the late legendary singer is an inspiration to present day Afrobeats artistes such as Wizkid, Burna Boy, Rema and others.
