Last year, WizKid unveiled his fourth studio LP Made In Lagos, a 14-song body of work that saw additional contributions from the likes of Burna Boy, Skepta, Damian Marley, H.E.R., Ella Mai, and Tems, the last of whom appeared on the now worldwide smash hit “Essence.” This past August, the Nigerian talent dropped off a deluxe version of Made In Lagos, which adds on four additional cuts — including a remix of “Essence” that now features Justin Bieber.
Yesterday (Dec. 20), WizKid kept the momentum going with a short film meant to accompany Made In Lagos (Deluxe). Filled with a vast variety of colors and beautiful people, the “Come Closer” star is first seen riding through the streets of Lagos and connecting with the locals, including a love interest that he finds himself chasing (and catching) throughout. In addition to the breathtaking imagery, the 10-minute clip also serves as a visual accompaniment for the Deluxe tracks “Anoti,” “Steady,” and “Mood,” the last of which features Buju and sees the artists delivering vibes perfect for a slow wine on a dance floor:
“I’m in the big mood, girl I dey feel you, something wey come cooli my body tell me will you do, I’m in the big mood, girl I dey feel you, something wey come cooli my body tell me will you do, make we go dey sempe, pour some liquor dey do me jeje, get somethings wey dey bother my head, I swear, na you dey cool my stress, oh yeah, make we go dey sempe, but some liquor dey do me jeje, get somethings wey dey bother my head, I swear, na you dey cool my stress, oh yeah…”
