Weekly Music Video

Today's music video is Jake Jake by Dhurata Dora. Her real name is Dhurata Murturi and she's an Albanian singer, born in Nuremberg, Bavaria  (Germany) to Kosovar Albanian parents. She released her debut single Vete kërkove in Kosovo in 2011. Her most popular singles include Get Down with Don Arbas, I Like dat and A bombi. She has also collaborated with Young Zerka on the 2014 song Roll.

Jake Jake came out in June 2018. The language is Albanian, although I'm not sure which dialect. Other Albanian singers I've come across speak and sing Gheg Albanian.

Note: Third party applications are blocked from playing (due to the record company), but if you click on the video you can watch it fine on YouTube. :)

 

Update 5/9/19: This video is now blocked in the UK. Can't understand why since I thought it was an official upload?! You can find a snippet of it here (seems to also be a bid for Dhurata to enter Eurovision 2020!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuWxFSW8JbQ

Find the original on DailyMotion: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6n8msw

 
Update 2, 16/10/19: The 2nd video is gone. Apparently the video has been blocked in other countries. Someone thought it's because she may enter Eurovision. The original video is still on DailyMotion (see above). You can also listen to a remix here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GuRFawlr1k8
