about this song
On “Santeria,” Push discusses the tragic murder of his friend and road manager De'Von “Day Day” Pickett. Santería—“The Way of the Saints”—is a Yaruba religion that uses mediums and divination to communicate to spirits and deities. To cope with the pain, Push speaks to the spirit of his friend De'Von sharing his battles of vengeance and distress over what sadly happened. Also, note that Pusha ironically dedicates the song “Santeria” to his manager whom Push described as always being in church.
