Posted on by The Native

Efya’s “Whoman woman”, sees the singer drawing attention to the hustle and triumphs of everyday women in the market.

Efya’s lyrics invites us to imagine what life without African women would be with an array of instances; “Like Garri without sugar/Like dodo without beans”. Over trumpet-led instrumentals that accentuate her soft vocals, she describes how women make life colorful. In her opinion, life would be bland and pointless; “Make man happy/Make man cry”. Efya supports this with scenes where she is seen learning and trading with women, holding hands and meditating with them.

Qdot reminds us of his greatness on “Aare”

Posted on by The Native

On his latest single, “Aare” Qdot doesn’t only sing almost entirely in Yoruba, he also embodies traditional sentiments, asking to be respected because he has been chosen by the king. Q-dot supports the pensive beat with just enough English lines (“If you dont like me, I dont like you too”) to communicate the song’s defensive theme to a non-native speaker. The accompanying video for “Aare” sets Qdot and his entourage in a community set with a backdrop of trees and mud, similar to a rural community. As he sings of his greatness as the chosen, we see the king bless him. Frizzle and Bizzle direct the war themed music video, showing confrontation between two communities that ends with them waging war against each other.

Burna Boy releases overwhelming video for “Ye”

Posted on by The Native

Burna Boy’s last album, ‘Outside’, is largely commended for being a project that adequately shows the full realization of his artistic mythos. And “Ye”, the 6th track off the project, was at the center of that toast with the song’s theme, addressing the very relatable hardship of being a Nigerian. However, the video Burna Boy just released for “Ye” highlights the song’s more introspective narrative as Clarence Peters directs the video in a studio setting where Burna is supported by models, strobe lights, a black Bentley, wads of cash and a painting of Fela.

We watch Burna walking back and forth, as he performs the song with clone-like men by his side. Though the imagery seems to depict an understanding that the “Ye” story transcends Burna himself, the internalised gaze of the video runs with the track’s most popular line: “I no fit, die for nothing”

You can watch the video for “Ye” below.

J Molley releases short film for ‘Dreams Money Can Buy’ EP

Posted on by The Native

J Molley just upped the ante of his ‘Dream Money Can Buy’ project with a short film of the same title. He directs the 12-minute long clip that shows him zonked out, collapsing in a bathroom and tripping as he makes his way around am hospital lobby before he heads out into the brooding night. The grim nature of the video mirrors sentiments expressed on the 9-track EP and cuts from the tracks are heard throughout the video.

Through most of the video, J Molley is portrayed as a loner stoner struggling with depression and suicidal thoughts, but he seems more alive when he’s seen with friends. His anarchic night turns into a party when he’s with the gang but with lovers, he almost seems bored.

See the video for J Molley’s “Dreams Money Can Buy” short film below.

The video for D-O’s “Itty Bitty” has an hazy atmosphere like the auto-tune that clouds the song’s melodies. Makblaze directs the video following D-O and his love interest hanging around the city on various date locations.

Their outfits and the activities they choose are also in line with the chill wave melody July Drama produces for “Itty Bitty”. As D-O sings, we see him and the love interest in amusement parks, D-O in a vintage jacket and ripped jeans and a side bag, while the woman he sings to keeps it casual in flip flops and short shorts. The date scenes are interluded with D-O dancing and loafing about on a backdrop of skies and buildings, completely isolated.

Posted on by The Native

Nia Ekamen’s latest single “FADIN.” is a sample of what to expect from her still unnamed forthcoming sophomore project. The raspy-voiced British-Nigerian singer explores ending relationships and the struggle of letting go on the new single. “I’m Fadin, put your blame on me”, he sings, volunteering himself as sacrifice in an attempt to save the crumbling relationship. The guitar-led instrumentals aren’t the only thing Lloyd Hinshelwood contributes to Nia Ekamen’s “FADIN.”, as Nia Ekamen revealed that  “FADIN.” was inspired by a conversation he had with the producer and another friend and singer, Alba. “FADIN.” serves as Ekamen’s first release since he released his 2017 debut EP, titled ‘Its Your Love’ in 2017.

Bedford’s new single, “News” is a guide on how to handle heartbreak

Posted on by The Native

We don’t have a lot of people telling us what we’re suppose to do when the love of our life isn’t into us. Taking hint from Bedford’s new single, “News”, one way to go about it is to make a bop, presenting your raw emotional battle scars like a trophy. Over synth filtered percussion and bouncy drum samples he produces himself, Bedford sings then raps, addresses the cause of his woes and laying down why he thinks she’s making a big mistake, “Kicking All These Old Ones Out For You, But You Still Got Me Feeling Blue”. Though he makes his impatience clear, it’s less of a stunt on the song’s subject than it’s him admitting some of his own faults.

Fresh L’s “Firewood”, featuring Davido, is a dream marriage of high-life influenced Afropop and hip-hop, and also a hymn on how to start a relationship. The song’s general message—trying to win the affection of a love interest—might have felt obvious, but with Davido’s hook, boldly declaring “I Swear I Want to Marry You”, it shows the importance of being explicit about the intentions behind even the most mundane romantic gestures.

Best New Music: Duncan Mighty takes the Tiwa Savage vibe up a notch on “Lova Lova”

Posted on by The Native

Though it is a general consensus that, the so-called “return of Ducan Mighty” is a false narrative, his on-going run in the spotlight has no doubt caused Tiwa Savage—who has also been on a silent but consistent run all year long—to enlist him for a new track.

Taking steam off street-hop smash hit, “Codeine Diet”, the Mavin first lady recently eased “Tiwa’s Vibe” into public consciousness, along with a shimmering video. For her latest single, Tiwa layers Ceeza Milli’s voice as back-up on a Spellz-produced high-life set featuring Duncan Mighty’s Afropop and R&B blend. “Lova Lova” is built from ground-up on melody, with guitars and Shaku-styled drums, leaving virtually no room on the track nothing but a calming rhythm and bluesy Afropop.

With Duncan Mighty’s presence on “Fake Love” topped by last week’s Best New Music, “Gimme Love” in collaboration with DJ Xclusive, “Lova Lova”, easily makes three in a row for Port Harcourt’s First Son.

Simi seems to have caught the bug for Skepta and Wizkid’s “Energy”, so much so that she decided to “do something about it“. Her solution was to create a cover, which she released as a video on her Instagram page. Simi’s version of “Energy” listens like the woman’s retell of the story Skepta and Wizkid share on the original song. Her version, told with lyrics as bold as brass, touches on the luxurious lifestyle of Wizkid over a remake of the original beat Simi she got from Ak Marv via YouTube.

Nigeria’s anti-trafficking agency launches “iReport” app to give awareness

Posted on by The Native

The National Agency for the Prohibition of Traffic in Persons was formed in 2003 to address the issue of human trafficking. Since it was created, the agency is said to have secured over 350 trafficking cases, which is not nearly enough as in 2016 alone, over 11,000 women were smuggled into the ports of Italy, the International Labor Organisation [ILO] reports. There have also been efforts to get citizens involved through awareness campaigns and education on what constituents as trafficking. Recently, the agency launched an app called “iReport” to give trafficking awareness, advocacy and action more accessible for citizens. With “iReport”, citizens can alert local authorities on human trafficking incidents around the country.

The agency reports foiling the smuggling of over 10 children into Russia during the World Cup. They believe this app will foster quick detection and action against smugglers. Human traffickers are the main focus according to the Director General of NAPTIP, Julie Okah-Donli needs to be addressed in order to end the trafficking problem. But the people on the other side of the bargain are just as guilty. The ILO reports that smugglers earn about $150 billion a year, meaning there’s very little incentive to stop. The rewards outweigh the risks. However, Okah-Donli promised that with the help of the citizens using this app, more smugglers will be identified and apprehended and they will face prosecution.

The app doesn’t do much in educating on what constitutes as trafficking. But with the growing number of trafficking awareness groups, it offers a strategy to take action.

Vlisco’s Beninese inspired editorial “New Traditions” pays homage to West African party culture

Posted on by The Native

Asides producing and distributing fashion fabric targeted at the West African market, Vlisco Group designs has worked overtime to showcase, sponsor and create platforms for designers within their target market. The group’s campaign, “New Traditions” is only the latest example. Vlisco’s website describes “New Traditions” as a look into the past and the future. Saying, “Classic designs are updated, new ones are innovative, and colours are bold and computerized. Altogether, we’ve created fabrics that are as exciting, as strong and as beautiful as the real-life woman within”. This vision is brought to life in their recently released editorial video released to launch the campaign.

Shot entirely in Benin Republic, with a primarily Beninese team, Vlisco’s “New Traditions” is set on a backdrop of the tropical Benin scenery. Beninese models pose in a grass and sand fields, surrounded by Vlisco fabric, palm trees towering over them. Through the video, we see Beninese women, all dressed in the same Vlisco Dutch Wax material made into a uniquely designed for each model. The final pieces were, according to Vlisco, were created to showcase the ‘Aso-ebi’ tradition; where family and close friends gathered for a significant event buy and sew outfits made from the same fabric as a show of solidarity.

The list of designers includes Pepita D, Casterman, from Benin. West African designers such as Nigerian Fashion house, Style Temple, and Grace Wallace, located in Togo were also featured.

The remix of Spyro’s “Funke” features Davido and Mayorkun

Posted on by The Native

Spyro’s “Funke”, released earlier in March, builds a palpable distress from just a few sonic elements S’Bings: a synth wash with a metronomic beep-like piano note and what sounds like occasional dispatches from a cosmic fax machine. It’s a strangely calming sound and like it did on the original record, it props up the singers’ emotive lyrics professing their affection for a love interest on the remix. Davido and Mayorkun aren’t passive features either, as they deliver impassioned verses climbing melodic scales with narrating their touching stories of their accomplished romance, “No Be Say We Sabi Each Other, But Our Love Dey Grow Stronger”.

Tiwa Savage, Wizkid and Chris Martin collaboration set for September release date

Posted on by The Native

The first hint at the collaboration between Tiwa Savage, Wizkid and Chris Martin was gotten from a video Tiwa Savage shared, showing the Cold Play lead singer dancing to “Ma Lo” from her Sugercane EP. Seeing as that song also featured Wizkid, it’s safe to assume he was equally impressed by both artists and is willing to work with them on a new single. It was initially announced that the Grammy-winning rock artist would only feature Tiwa, but during her interview with Beats 1’s Ebro Darden, she revealed that Wizkid is also expected to feature on the single, slated for a release in September. The interview also revealed that she has a record with Jamaica singer, Kranium in the pipelines as well.

Check out the video for Niniola’s and Busiswa “Magun” remix

Posted on by The Native

Earlier this year, Niniola teamed up with South Africa singer, Busiswa for the remix of “Magun”, one of the stand out tracks ‘This is me‘, her album debut. Busiswa matches Niniola’s teasingly seductive lyrics with Xhosa oomph tinctured with English lines.

In spite of the raunchy nature of both singer’s verses on the remix of “Magun”, the video Clearance Peters directs for the remix is far less suggestive. While the video for the original single showed Niniola’s dancers giving life to the cheeky lyrics, Ninola takes front and centre for the remix’s video. While singing “Only The Foreplay Is Allowed For You”, she’s seen moving from a limpid doll package— She’s the doll—to the pages of magazines. The scenes with Bususwa are set against colourful backdrops of dancers in bright African print dancing against equally colourful walls.

Moonchild Sanelly was profiled for drug possession in Namibia

Posted on by The Native

Going back to South Africa from Namibia last weekend, South African musician, Moonchild Sanelly was held up for questioning at an airport in Namibia. The singer posted a video on her Instagram detailing the ordeal, where the officials can be seen instructing her to keep her phone away.

According to a recount from another South African singer, Batuk, Moonchild was singled out for her appearance. Batuk said on twitter that her friend was “dragged on the floor in handcuffs” by the airport officials, and has suffered both mental and physical hurt from the ordeal.

In her video, reposted by Zalebs, Moonchild Sanelly confirmed that she was apprehended for her looks “because people don’t understand color, they just have to be racist about everything”, she said. She also informs that “They didn’t find drugs”. The video says Tanzania, but according to a later tweet, the incident took place at an airport in Namibia.

Yemi Alade – “The Black Magic World Tour”

Yemi Alade’s ‘Mama Africa’ album had such a crossover appeal that she released an international edition, Mama Afrique, a French, Swahili & Portuguese extension of the lauded sophomore LP. She followed up the projects with a world tour and has released the first part of her “The Black Magic World Tour”, showing the European leg of the tour. The video shows Yemi Alade performing with her Oversabi Band in cities across the continent.

Wale – “Black Bonnie” Feat. Jacquees

“Black Bonnie” is a single off Wale’s ‘It’s Complicated’ EP, released back in March. In line with the pro-black women theme of the song, the Yasha Gruben directed the music video serves as a testament to black love. “Black Bonnie” stars Wale who plays ‘Clyde’ with his Bonnie, as they chase their dreams together throughout history. In a sort of Black Panther-inspired narrative, Wale is seen on a throne alongside his queen in a village in Africa, before they lead the Black Panther movement with the F.B.I on their tail.

Ice Prince – “Big Daddy Ice”

After releasing his ‘C.O.L.D’ EP a few weeks ago, Ice Prince returns with a video for “Big Daddy Ice”, a previously released single. The rapper occasionally incorporates pop elements on his songs and this pays off through the dancehall fascination of “Big Daddy Ice”, where he raps over a synth-based beat Austynobeatz produces, patterned to Afrohouse rhythm. Clarence Peters directs the video showing Ice Prince, former Big Brother star, Cee-C and a few dancers in a greenroom studio that leads to some fascinating CGI shots of dancers on the streets of Lagos.

M.I – “Brother” Feat. Nosa & Milli

Without counting ‘Rendezvous’, since it has been classified as a playlist, ‘Chairman’ from 2014 was the last time M.I dropped an album. Its success and commercial appeal remain undisputed with debates about its shelf-life marking one hip-hop’s hottest debates last year. M.I is reviving the album through his recently released video for “Brother” featuring Nosa and Milli. Though the video is reported to have been shot since 2015, the rapper claims he never released it because the message in the song was lost after his fallout with Ice Prince, Jesse Jagz, Brymo and Milli.

Travis Scott – “AstroWorld Trailer”

Travis just unveiled his theme park inspired cover art for ‘AstroWorld’, but it’s his trailer video for the highly-anticipated third album that captured fans’ attention. The video is set in a post-apocalyptic world where Travis walks and rides in a shopping cart through the deserted and snow-covered amusement park in his hometown of Houston. Though the scenery has a beautiful allure with colorful Milkyway imagery and some wild animals, there’s also a sense of chaos experienced in the form of explosions. The cinematic trailer for the album featured a soundtrack, “Stargazing”, expected to be on the album when it’s released on Friday, the 3rd of August.

Venom 2nd Trailer

The new trailer for Sony’s “Venom” gives a more extensive look at the super-villain title character played by Tom Hardy. The initial teaser trailer focused on Hardy and the other human cast with brief clips showing the alien ‘symbiote’. When we eventually got to see Venom a few months later in the first trailer, but the new trailer goes even further than those previous glimpses of oozing CGI skin and enormous fangs. This time, we see more big Venom action scenes and even a full-on, symbiote monologue where the sentient costume’s reputed bad attitude comes to light.

Posted on by The Native

Because the definition of love as a concept varies from person to person, its connotation is often dependent on the ambiguous promises made between lovers. On “And That”, Lynxxx tries to talk his way into his love interest’s heart by convincing her his feelings are deeper than lust; “Man Ain’t Trying To Netflix and Chill/Man’s Trying to Vibe And That”. Though Lynxxx’s vocals integrating slurs and slang from London, the beat Spax produces is laid back and suited to fit Afropop’s mid-tempo vibe. The video for “And That” is shot in London showing Lynxxx and his love interest chilling at a park.

Posted on by The Native

“Bangers”, released back in April, finds Darkovibes narrating his climb to success with an energetic, full-throttle flow that lifts his inspirational tale to eloquent heights. The video Abstrakte directs follows his rise to success in the nearly 4-minute clip featuring Darkovibes, featured artist, AYAT and friends of the two artists. The video for “Banger” opens in a street with rusty roofs, where Darkovibes is seen pouring champagne while singing along to the lyrics, “You Dey Pop Champagne But Still Thirsty”. And with the same group of friend seen with him as he goes from riding to bus on the streets of Ghana to playing golf, the video does a great job of depicting his ‘started from the bottom’ story while also showing that ‘nothing was the same’.

Best New Music: Duncan Mighty confirms his return to ruling the airwaves with “Gimme Love”

Posted on by The Native

Duncan Mighty surfaced on the music scene nearly eleven years ago today. The ‘Port Harcourt First Son’, dominated his hometown’s underground for years, reaching mainstream popularity with the release of his 2009 album Fully Loaded.

Though Duncan followed his debut with two more albums, recent features with younger artists (Wizkid, Ceeza Milli and Reekado Banks) earmark the beginning of a new era for his eccentric style: a fusion of excellent vocal work and melody. “Gimme Love”, his latest collaboration with DJ Xclusive is another evidence of a Duncan Mighty streak on the horizon.

The track lends modern electronic inspirations that leans into Duncan Mighty’s highlife comfort zone. He mashes his fondness for Twi phrases like ‘Me daa Si’ (which loosely translates as “Thank You”) with the Maetro D-produced instrumentals, painting the image of a Ghanian woman with a rich cultural heritage and his appreciation for the embodiment of such a person.

“Gimme Love”, brings to mind recent success of artists who have improved the universality of West African Afropop (Runtown, Mr Eazi, Sarkodie, Tekno etc) by bridging sound, languages and cultures across the region. As Duncan Mighty slips between pidgin, Twi and Yoruba while singing on a soothing guitar baseline as he’d done on “Dance For Me” nearly ten years ago, it becomes clear he paved way for stylistically infusing west African highlife in contemporary Afropop, and now he is levelling up to dominate the sound once again.

Safe to say, no one knew how much we needed a refresher like “Fake Love”, until the infectious romantic number, dropped nearly two months ago. “Gimme Love” is no exception.
