Death of Don Jazzy’s Mum Inspired My Hit Song – Johnny Drille

Nigerian singer, John Ighodaro aka Johnny Drille has spoken about how the death of Don Jazzy’s mother impacted his life.
According to him, she was the inspiration behind his hit song ‘How Are You My Friend’.
He disclosed this in a recent interview with Hip TV.
Recall that the singer is signed to Jazzy’s record label.
Johnny Drille said he co-wrote ‘How Are You My Friend’ with Don Jazzy, adding that the song was the idea of the Mavin boss.
He said, “For ‘How Are You My Friend’, the inspiration behind it was, Don Jazzy has just lost his mum like a couple of weeks prior.
 
“I guess, maybe this [the song] was his own way of talking about it because a lot of people were reaching out to him that he has not heard from like years. So, it just kind of hit him that, ‘Omo, I actually have these many friends that I have not spoken with for so long.’
 
“I also think that we are also in pretty touch times. The economy is crazy. A lot of people having it hard. A lot of people going through things in their lives that sometimes they don’t feel comfortable sharing them. And I guess, maybe that is why people have been able to connect with the song.”
