PeruFireboy DML & Ed Sheeran

Fireboy DML, Ed Sheeran – Peru (Official Video)

This is a hit song by Nigerian artist Fireboy DML, “Peru,” whose lyrics interestingly mix English and Yoruba.

It was originally released in July 2021 and became a hit mainly in the UK.

Then, in December of the same year, a remix featuring globally popular singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran was released, which also became a massive success—by February 2022 it had been steadily staying in the UK Top 10.

While it carries the danceable rhythms of Afrobeats—a genre influenced by both American hip-hop and African music—the melody has a somewhat wistful tone that gives it a wintry feel, which is really nice.

If you’re someone who often listened to the remix with Ed, this song will surely bring back memories of the cold winter season!
