I'm reeeeeeeally excited about this music video! It's called "That Stupid Song" and it's by Nigerian jazz-soul-afro-pop singer Bez :)
Featuring Praiz, the song is a really fun, four-minute dedication to childhood nostalgia. Anyone who went to primary school in Nigeria knows these silly rhymes. We held hands, snapped our fingers and clapped our hands to the words, half the time not even understanding what we were saying!
Made-up songs like, boju boju, ojuju calabar, my personal favourites Amina toro (the lazy girl) and the girly after-school game tinko tinko, make it into this limited edition ode. He even shouts out the 'imported' London Bridge and Yankee Doodle rhymes, saying, "so what's [yankee doodle's pony, feather and macaroni] got to do with anything?"
It doesn't take itself too seriously, it inserts a series of sing-along 'oooooh's into every other line, and it leaves you with a big smile on your face. Plus, great production, great voices and an exclusive BET 106&Park world premiere. Whoop!
Proudly famzing, here's the brand new video!
