She claimed that the Amapiano from her own country, her early R&B influences, and Nigeria’s Afrobeats served as the inspiration for her song “Water.”
“I think the piano music is the essence of it [‘Water,’” she remarked. Along with all of the inspirations from my childhood, including pop girls, R&B boys, and Rihanna. I adore incorporating those kinds of inspirations into my songs.
“When I hear those step vocals in Afrobeats music, it almost sounds like a choir, which is something I really love.” Furthermore, I adore how Asake employs it. It’s just the sound that I find so appealing. Thus, I used it into the chorus of my song “Water.” It’s obvious that people are singing nonstop and loving it, so that’s great.
