I so much love it when an artist who seems to be getting forgotten or, let me say, getting swallowed by the fame of new artists suddenly comes out with a big hit, and boom! The love the artist used to receive from people suddenly returns, and in a massive way. That's the situation with Perruzi right now, with his latest track titled Inferno, featuring Shoday and Zlatan.
Perruzi may not make it onto the list of the biggest artists in the Nigerian and African music industries, but he has surely left his mark with his creative craft. He is one of the artists whose craft I love a lot, even when they are not widely recognised.
Inferno:
First of all, the song is already beginning to fade, and I guess that's due to how everyone rushed to listen to it and put it on repeat during the first few weeks, which eventually reduced its appeal. I remember one particular Sunday when the DJ in the lounge close to my house put this song on repeat mode from 12 noon to 6 pm. Honestly, I got tired of hearing it on repeat because it was excessive, but I must also admit that I kept vibing to the song with every repeat. Lol.
The song has catchy lyrics from all three songwriters. They didn't just sing; they were also flexible with their choice of words, which made the song very singable and relatable.
The beat is not left out either. It made the song so danceable that whenever it comes on, one is almost automatically triggered to dance.
Thanks for reading.
