It was after the song went viral that Nigerians realised it was a gospel tune.

On the huge success of his song, De Bull said:

“I’ve been making music since 2010, but I came into the music industry as a drummer. This is the first time I’m making music as a singer. I was surprised because I never expected it to go this big.”

The singer derived the song’s title from the slang used by Nigerians to ask if they are being lied to or flattered in Pidgin (“Are you kidding me?” or “Are you for real?”).
