Fireboy DML has teamed up with Ed Sheeran for a remix of his hit song Peru. Surprisingly, the visual of the banger from the much-anticipated collaboration would be on musical shelves today.
On December 20, footage of the two stars went viral. In the video, they were on a couch as the English singer and songwriter beautifully sang a line of Peru in the native Nigerian language. Then, DML followed with his line too, and with the blending soothing voices of the vocalists, the remix would be classic.

Peru is a profession of love from a hopeless romantic guy who felt enchanted by the love of a lady. Released in July this year, it suddenly became a sensation in Africa. It trended on both TikTok and Instagram massively.
Fireboy DML proved that he is ready to take Afrobeat in Nigeria on his shoulders.
According to reviews, Peru was inspired by Peruzzi, Wande Coal and Sloxto. These stars are widely known Afrobeats icons in Nigeria reigning for decades.
Certainly, the remix is coming with its visual right away. Though the audio is on shelves since yesterday, December 23. The singer shared a teaser where he texted Ed Sheeran that he had landed in London. That footage, as usual, with its earlier scenes, predicts a masterpiece and class the entire piece of art has to offer.
