If there are two things i will authoritatively and unapologetically admit keeps
Davido ahead of other music artistes in Nigeria, they would be
hardwork and
creativity.
In terms of contents put out, features on songs, shows performances,
tours embarked on as well as ‘turn-up’ for fellow artistes, both elite
and up & coming; he has proven himself to be the most hardworking.
Also regarding creativity, he is way ahead of other artistes, and
this is evident in the numbers his music videos have amassed in times
past, still currently amassing and in the more recently released visuals
for “
Wonder Woman.”
It is quite easy for me to adjudge him the most creative Nigerian
music artiste based on his videos because they have made him the most
watched Nigerian music artiste ever on social media channel, YouTube.
Not diverting from the topic, Davido recently released a new hit
single; “Wonder Woman,” which trended on social media almost immediately
after its release.
Since the release of the song, it has gotten positive reviews from
different angles of the industry due to its sweet tune, and further
exploded on the internet as a result of the release of its sleek
visuals.
The Dammy Twitch directed video is such a “wonder” creation that celebrates various African women.
In the beginning of the video appears popular tribal mark female
model; Adetutu Alabi, as the first “Wonder woman” of the video. The
reason i was gassed at watching her in this scene is because, i never
thought of all models alive, Davido would have opted for Adetutu.
Adetutu once expressed her regrets at having tribal marks because of
the victimization she is always subjected to. And to have her on the
visuals of such a beautiful song by Davido would not only encourage her,
but inspire others that are suffering from almost a similar ordeal, and
also to make her know she is beautiful and appreciated. This is another
way Davido has upheld his popular saying; “We rise by lifting others”
and it keeps giving me goose bumps whenever i watch the video.
Also in the video, there is the celebration of different African
women. Many of these women who are entrepreneurs, Business owners,
Entertainers, Philanthropists etc. had autonomous scenes to themselves
in the video, projecting their beautiful faces and smiles to the viewers
in order to make us a have a thorough understanding of how special,
wonderful and amazing the African woman is. These scenes are glittering.
Lastly, the last scenes are the greatest highlights and most
wonderful of the video. If the off-the-scene circumstances surrounding
these scenes are critically thought about, you will understand that this
video preaches love, understanding, unity, happiness, maturity,
harmony, bond, freedom, beauty and many other gracious words that right
now are unthinkable for me. I know you are eager to know what scenes i
am talking about, and i am sure when i finally let you have a clue of
the scenes, it definitely must have been/would be your favourite after
watching the video.
These scenes are where the 3 women in Davido’s life appears. His first baby mama, second baby mama and his current girlfriend.
Having to convince these women to appear in the same video shows what
kind of a man Davido is. Considering the rivalry between these three
women, many would consider it impossible to have them accept being on
the same project.
And apart from applauding the success of convincing them to be on the
project, the thought of this alone is laudable. In the scenes, Davido’s
second baby mama; Amanda, is seen carrying their daughter who was all
smiles, the same thing applies to his first baby mama, Sophia and Imade,
before Davido capped it all up with a hug and a kiss to his girlfriend,
Chioma who is seen doing what we know her to do best, cooking.
In addition, the fact that this video is different from what Davido
does is what has impressed me. The choice of simplicity for this video
is perfect, there are no half-naked girls shaking their bums &
promoting sultriness or sexiness, there is no Davido or any other person
exhaling from their mouth smoke from a lighted marijuana or any similar
substance. Simplicity is chosen all through and i appreciate it.
The video graphics are top notch, the scenes in the video are well
laid out, the director Dammy Twitch passed so well for his first major
project.
It is an awesome video that is full of thrills. “Originality always wins.”
