Don Jazzy: How Living with D’Prince and D’Banj Sparked ‘Olorun Maje’

In a recent Crea8torium podcast episode, Don Jazzy shared how living and working under the same roof with D’Prince and D’Banj fueled some of Afrobeats’ biggest hits. He recalled how a disagreement over radio interviews between D’Prince and their then-manager sparked the idea for D’Banj’s hit “Olorun Maje.” While in the studio, he paused his work when D’Prince began humming the now-famous chorus. Don Jazzy also explained that tracks like “You Bad, You Want It” came from spontaneous studio sessions. He says living together made collaboration easier, but he still strives for intentional beat-making today.
