In a recent interview with Genius ‘ Verified’ music sensation and ‘Lover boy’, Joeboy shares the inspiration behind his hit song “Sip (Alcohol”
Joeboy’s “Sip (Alcohol)” is his latest hit, and it’s already racked up over 4 million Spotify streams and YouTube views to date. The track is produced by Tempoe. The Nigerian singer says the single was simply inspired by him being a “little tipsy” off his sweet wine.
I don’t wanna reason bad things no more (oh no)
I don’t wanna go back to where I dey before
Make nobody stress me no disturb me jọ’ọ’ jọ’ọ’ jọ’ọ’
I sip my alcohol (Ewe)
I don’t wanna reason bad things no more (oh no)
I don’t wanna go back to where I dey before
Make nobody stress me no disturb me jọ’ọ’ jọ’ọ’ jọ’ọ’
Breaking the lyrics down, Joeboy said,
I think [Sip (Alcohol)] is really special for me, like seeing how big the song is becoming and how big it’s going to get because it was like a different step in my sound, not like the regular Joeboy sound from the beginning, which is more or less like this kind of lover boy.
