Huntsville, Alabama native Dariel Mayfield, known to fans as sptmbr, is proving that authentic artistry has no borders. His recent release, “Overseas Dripp,” dropped on September 24, 2024, and is quickly becoming a fan favorite—not just in the United States but also overseas, with a notable rise in popularity in Brazil.
What makes “Overseas Dripp” so compelling is its effortless creation. “It wasn’t a drawn-out process at all,” sptmbr recalls. “Ace played the beat, and as soon as I heard the guitar, I thought, ‘That’s it.’ The vibe just came naturally. I wrote the song in under an hour and had the entire track finished in two days.”
The song’s inspiration is rooted in sptmbr’s admiration for Young Thug and the buzz surrounding the YSL trial. “Young Thug’s music and style have influenced me heavily,” he explains. “The trial had everyone talking, and it felt like a cultural moment. I channeled that energy when I stepped into the booth, drawing inspiration from the drip wave he helped create.”
“Overseas Dripp” owes part of its polished sound to an impressive team of collaborators. Fyugo, known for his work with Money Man, brought the production to life, while Record63‘s CEO Sergio Cortez and mixing engineer Jay Addison ensured its sonic clarity. Finally, Grammy-award-winning mastering engineer Emerson Mancini, who has worked with icons like Kendrick Lamar and Lizzo, gave the track its finishing touch.
What’s truly exciting for sptmbr is the song’s international appeal. With Brazil embracing the track, he dreams of taking his music to the stage there one day. “It’s surreal to see a song I wrote gaining traction overseas,” he says. “I’ve always wanted to connect with audiences beyond the U.S., and performing in Brazil would be a dream come true.”
Fans of artists like Gunna, Roddy Ricch, Juice WRLD, and Drake will find a familiar yet fresh vibe in sptmbr’s sound. His unique approach blends melodic rap with introspective lyrics, creating music that’s both personal and widely relatable.
Looking ahead, sptmbr is aiming for greatness. “I want to work with legends like Pharrell and T-Pain,” he shares. “Collaborating with artists who’ve shaped the industry would be an incredible learning experience.”
As 2025 approaches, sptmbr is focused on new music and continuing to grow his presence on the global stage. “Overseas Dripp” is only the beginning. “I’m just grateful for how far this song has come and excited to see what’s next,” he says.
