During a recent interview with Hip TV, Johnny Drille revealed that the death of the mother of his record label boss, Don Jazzy, served as the catalyst for the creation of “How Are You My Friend.”
The singer said that he co-wrote the song with Don Jazzy, emphasizing that the idea for the track originated from 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 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.”
KanyiDaily recalls that recalls that Don Jazzy announced the death of his mother on July 22, 2022, after her battle with cancer.
