Ruger – “Asiwaju” (Apple Music London Sessions)
Ruger – “Wine Slow” (Apple Music Sessions)
“I found the song and I just fell in love with it. I use it for anything, even when I’m chilling. If I want to sleep, I could just listen to it. When we were recording it, during the Apple Music London Session, they were saying I had to do four takes, five takes. I said, “I could do 100 takes of the song as long as I’m enjoying myself,” because that song is amazing.” — Ruger explained

Ruger on how long it took to prepare for his Apple Music London Session…
It took a week or so. I just had to just pick the songs I was going to perform, so that was easy. But yeah, I practiced with my band. We put everything together, we lined everything up, and that’s about it, man. Those songs are special songs on my album, two special songs on my album. That’s ‘Ashana’ and ‘Asiwaju.’ You all know ‘Asiwaju,’ a global song. Then my favorite song of all time, ‘Wine Slow’ by Gyptian. It’s easy to pick, and I enjoyed performing those songs.
Ruger on why he chose to cover “Wine Slow” by Gyptian…
I found the song and I just fell in love with it. I use it for anything, even when I’m chilling. If I want to sleep, I could just listen to it. When we were recording it, during the Apple Music London Session, they were saying I had to do four takes, five takes. I said, “I could do 100 takes of the song as long as I’m enjoying myself,” because that song is amazing … I think I first heard that song properly, I think 2020, during the quarantine, then COVID, all of that, the outbreak and all of that. I was just searching for music. I just found it on YouTube and yeah.
Ruger on why he switched the original arrangements of his records for the live session…
