All in one night! Thank you London!! 🇬🇧❤️
And oh, we'll be BACK!! SOON!!! 🔜
At midnight I turned a year older, and I got an email with a split sheet from @fozadoza. Pretty much summarizes my life quite aptly 😂 Plus, now I know what I want for my birthday, a Portugal jersey with Figo on the back.
10 years ago, I worked with Davido for the first time.
A decade passed. ORIADÉ arrived.
Directing B4 B4, felt less like a job and more like an offering. Because this video is everything I believe art should be. A great cinematography and Beautiful storytelling, never one at the expense of the other.
A homage to Yoruba heritage. The Elegance and grace of it. Wealth and Colour without excess.
B4 B4 video out now! directed by me!
🚨 TOMORROW: LONDON 🇬🇧💥
@davido brings the ORIADÉ album to the stage for the very first time at the intimate ORIADÉ: A Royal Night in London, taking place at the iconic 2,300-capacity O2 Forum Kentish Town.
The new era goes LIVE tomorrow night. 👑❤️
