Fine boy upcoming rap
artiste, Ambassage, just shot the video for his song, Showcase featuring K’ore.
X2D met with him and asked a few questions about this video:
WHERE WAS THE VIDEO SHOT?
This video was shot on
the Island - at the Sliverbird Galleria and Marina Rooftop - and Mr Price Stores at the Ikeja Shopping
Mall.
WHO SHOT THE VIDEO?
Achor Yusuf, the current
director of Nigerian Idols.
WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO SHOOT THE VIDEO NOW?
They say “a picture is
worth a thousand words”, and since we really want to go by the message of the
song, it was time to make an exhibition of a really good song and vertical
(gospel) music as a whole. The track has done so well on air without much push,
so a video is just the right boost ‘SHOWCASE’ needs. Plus it is time to put a face to the name.
WHAT IS THE MESSAGE BEHIND THE SONG?
Ephesians 3:10 says
‘that the wisdom of God may be shown to the world through the church…’ and that
is us. Also Romans 8:19 says ‘the whole creation awaits the manifestation of
the sons of God’. God really wants to use us (His sons) as showpieces to the
world literally, but most of us are too scared, timid and not excellent to step
up to the plate. We are praying for God to ‘STEP IN” and do something while He
is waiting for us to ‘STEP UP’ and do something with all He has given us. The
song is pretty much a challenge, prayer and faith
confession.
WHAT WAS THE CONCEPT BEHIND THE VIDEO?
In a nutshell, ‘Wo ‘ke,
Go ‘ke, Di oge’ meaning “Look up to Him, Rise to a height and be made a
showpiece.
WHAT SONG ARE YOU LIKELY TO WORK ON NEXT?
It would be something
for Nigeria – ‘One Green Wish’. ‘It is a project dear to my heart and you know
with all that is going on around us, I think I should lend my voice and speak
for change. It is featuring Rooftop Mcs, Provabs and Esse (MTN Project Fame
Season 4 runner up) and it is produced by Ambassage and that is me (Laughs)
