Nigerian DJ and producer SPINALL has dropped the highly-anticipated music video for his latest single, "One Call," featuring South African Grammy-winner Tyla and Afrobeats sensation Omah Lay. This video, released yesterday, is a much-needed breath of fresh air in the Nigerian music scene.
In a year filled with talented directors and captivating music videos, "One Call" stands out as one that perfectly complements the song it visualizes. The collaboration between Omah Lay and Tyla, though unexpected, brings a refreshing dynamic to the music.
Touted as a contender for the song of the summer and a tribute to love, the video was shot against the stunning landscapes of Portugal, providing the perfect backdrop. It captures the essence of summer and romance, featuring scenes of a wedding ceremony that beautifully celebrates Black love.
This year, we've seen numerous great songs paired with underwhelming videos, and some videos so creative that they overshadow the music. However, "One Call" achieves a perfect balance, with each element enhancing the other.
Directed by Seyi Akinlade, also known as UAX, the video visually narrates the romantic undertones of the track while maintaining the vibrant energy characteristic of SPINALL’s Afrobeats and house music fusion. UAX's direction ensures that the video stays true to the song's essence.
Produced by P.Priime and SPINALL, "One Call" is available exclusively via Epic Records/TheCAPMusic.
