Davido’s Skelewu needs anymore attention than it has garnered in the last few months since its first release. First,
Davido created a frenzy via a
competition by offering $3,000 USD to anyone who could create the best
dance video to the song – which after many fun attempts by various people including footballer
Emmanuel Adebayor and
Nigerian comedian AY, a winner was announced.
Davido shared an image of the
winner of the Skelewu dance competition ,
Kiddy via instagram last week.
On the 15th of October, an official
Skelewu video was released which we later learnt from Davido via tiwtter and an
official press release that the
released video
which was shot by Sesan was infact an online leak which he, Davido
never signed off for public release as he later discovered he didn’t
like the final edit.
On the 16th of October, just less than 24hrs after the leak of the unapproved
video, Davido has shot a totally new video under the directorship of
Moe Musa in London under the production of
Pheonix Global Media.
What we are now expected to see is an epic adventure that has never been seen before.
Abi Wilson-Obruche of Pheonix Global Media said, “It was a pleasure working with Davido. Given the short period
of time we had to put the video together, it was interesting working on
an adventurous concept and HKN proved to be a excellent partner in
delivering the video”.
Moe Musa and
his team has pulled out all the stops to create a “28 Days Later” concept for the video to prove to the world that
“Skelewu” has officially taken over.
The video is said to première worldwide on Monday.
Skelewu, the hottest Afrobeats song out right now is
officially ready to take the world by storm. Are you ready?
