Yesterday,
the much anticipated Davido’s Skelewu video surfaced online. Minutes
later Davido tweeted that the video directed by Sesan was not supposed
to be released and that in fact he was re-shooting a new video today
with a UK director, Moe Musa. The video has so far generated a lot of
buzz, most of them negative. As usual, actor movie director, Charles
Novia took to twitter to bare his mind on the matter:
I
don't really see anything wrong with the leaked 'Skelewu' video. I
think it has a certain raw, African energy, fit for the song. #opinion.
And
Davido going to London to re-shoot (his money to spend, though!)may
well lose the ESSENCE of the song. The song has a great AFRICAN feel
The
Sesan-directed video has an EARTHY, native synthesis which interpretes
the song artistically. Only fault? Had less emphasis on the dance
That
Sesan video only needs a bit of re-editing and 1 or 2 additional shoot
and you have a great video. Anyway, d client is never satisfied
My attention is drawn toward the chaos surrounding the release of the Skelewu video .
Myself
and my team shot the video for Davido in Nigeria and to the best of my
knowledge my client and his team were very happy with the result, when
they watched/ and approved the video. If he has since had a change of
heart, that is ok. I am not in any way responsible for the release of
the video. I believe Davido and myself did a very good job regarding the
video production and as a professional of over 10 years. I find it very
irresponsible and immature if my client and his management publicly put
out false statements/comments, in an attempt to tarnish my name,
credibility and reputation.
I
remain dedicated, humble, focused and as hard working as ever. Thank
you to all my fans and industry professionals - Stay blessed.
