Weekly Music Video

This week's video is One Call by SPINALL, Omah Lay and Tyla. SPINALL 's real name is Oluseye Desmond Sodamola and he is a Nigerian DJ and record producer, formerly known as DJ Spinall. He started his career by working for a local radio station and studying music at the Tenstrings Music Institute, and went on to found record label/management company TheCAPMusic in 2014. He is also signed to Atlantic Records UK and Warner Chappell Music UK.

In October 2015 he released his debut studio album My Story: The Album and to date he has brought out 5 more albums- Ten (2016), Dreams (2017), Iyanu (2018), Grace (2020) and TOP BOY (2023). His most successful singles include Gba Gbe E featuring Burna Boy, Oluwa, Nowo featuring Wizkid, Baba featuring Kizz Daniel, Diss Love with Wizkid and Tiwa Savage, and Palazzo featuring Asake.

SPINALL was the first Nigerian DJ to perform at several music festivals abroad. His most recent album TOP BOY was released in February. Prior to One Call, his most recent single was Psalm 23 with Nigerian singer/songwriter and entertainer Teni.

For One Call, SPINALL teamed up with Nigerian singer and producer Omah Lay and South African singer Tyla. (See below for more on Omah and Tyla.) It's an Afrobeats/Afropop and R'n'B song with English lyrics. I like the laidback vibe of it and it's nice to see a Nigerian/South African collab. :) It was released on 19th July and the music video came out on 25th July.

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 ...

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...

K-pop Comebacks- BTS

Sorry the 2nd post is later again this week, I didn't manage to get it finished yesterday. :) Last month I started a mini series called K-pop Comebacks, featuring the comebacks of K-pop groups during 2026. The first one was about BLACKPINK and you can see it here:  https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2026/03/k-pop-comebacks-blackpink.html Today I'm focusing on BTS (one of the most popular Korean boybands ). They debuted in 2013 and are a 7-member group, made up of leader RM, formerly known as Rap Monster (real name Kim Nam Joon), SUGA (Min Yoon Gi), Jin (full name Kim Seok Jin), j-hope (Jung Ho-seok), Jimin (Park Ji Min), V (Kim Tae Hyung) and Jungkook (Jeon Jung Kook). * Since then, the boys have been very successful, not only in South Korea but internationally. They are probably one of the most well-known K-pop bands worldwide.  In June 2022, the group took a break while the members served their  mandatory military service in Korea and have also been concentrat...
