Weekly Music Video

Today's video is I No Go Give Up On You by emPawa Africa and Mr Eazi. emPawa Africa is an Africa wide mentorship programme run by Mr Eazi, who is originally from Nigeria but based in Ghana.

I No Go Give Up On You is the lead single from the new EP One Day You Will Understand, a joint release from Mr Eazi and members of emPawaAfrica. The song was co-written by Mikel and was released in May. This is a visualiser (or visualizer) video.

It has a nice, summer vibe. I think it's sung in Pidgin. You can see the lyrics in the info box on YouTube. :)




Mr Eazi launched emPawa Africa in 2018. He asked for demo submissions from artists across Africa. 100 artists were chosen and their videos were funded, then 10 finalists were chosen to take part in a masterclass in South Africa. Check out a video by finalist by Bey T (from Kenya) here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2019/06/weekly-music-video_26.html

Sorry there wasn't a 2nd post last week, I was going through a bit of a stressful time and didn't manage to get one finished. :) This week's video is I CONDEMN by Australian singer and rapper The Kid LAROI . It was the first single from the deluxe version of his second album BEFORE I FORGET. The original album was released in January and the deluxe version came out on 24th April. It contains 9 extra tracks, including  I CONDEMN and latest single PIECES. I wasn't aware that there was a deluxe version until I saw that some new songs had appeared on Spotify! I like BEFORE I FORGET and my favourite songs from the original version are ME + YOU, JULY,  COME DOWN and RATHER BE featuring Australian rapper and singer Lithe . One of my fave songs on the deluxe version is QUIT YOU, and I also like HOLD STILL and I CONDEMN. The newest single PIECES came out on out the same day as the album. I CONDEMN was released on 17th April. As with the songs on the original BEFORE I FORGET, it...

South Indian Videos

I've written several Bollywood posts this year but I don't feature South Indian music/films as much. So today I'm sharing some music and dance videos from Tollywood ( the Telugu language film industry) and Kollywood (the Tamil language film industry). :) Oo Antava Mawa- Pushpa- Dance Cover by Sonali First up is a dance cover of the song Oo Antava Mawa..Oo Oo Antava from the 2021 Tollywood film Pushpa: The Rise- Part 1 . I previously featured a dance cover of Oo Antava Mawa in a Dance Videos post in August last year. That one is by Rang De and you can see it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/08/dance-videos.html This cover is by Indian choreographer Sonali Bhaduria, from LiveToDance with Sonali and was uploaded in January 2022. It's a shorter video.   For more on Pushpa and to watch the official Oo Antava Mawa video, check out my Tollywood Videos Round-up 2 post from September 2023: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/09/tollywood-videos-round-up-2.html ...
