The music video which was directed and shot by Director K;is the fourth video to be released from ‘Made In Lagos’. Wizkid’s ‘Made In Lagos’ came out last October. In a three-star review of the record, NME wrote: “The production;on the album is mainly centered around Yoruba, Afro-Latin and Afrobeats percussion, which creates a sense of homecoming. Yet this latest project meanders for a few tracks too many; ‘Mighty Wine’ and ‘Essence’, for example, are expendable”.
