While modern music videos often prioritise high-quality production and aesthetics, truly iconic visuals possess more than just surface appeal. They tell compelling stories, reflect cultural identity, and deliver innovative concepts that leave a lasting impact on their audience.

This article highlights music videos that, while not necessarily the most visually polished, stand out for their cultural significance, storytelling, and originality. These visuals played pivotal roles in shaping the Nigerian music industry, distinguishing themselves as timeless works of art and elevating the global perception of Nigerian music as a cultural treasure. In no particular order, the 10 iconic Nigerian music videos are:

10. 'No be God' - Gino

Released in 2005 as part of his debut album, Pain Plus Work, Gino's "No Be God" remains one of the most iconic Nigerian hip-hop songs, celebrated for its lyrical depth and relatable storytelling. The song's impact was further amplified by its groundbreaking music video, which marked a new era for Nigerian hip-hop visuals. Unlike the typical format where the artist dominates the screen, the video for "No Be God" stood out for its innovative use of characters. Various individuals, portraying diverse roles, lip-synced Gino's lines, creating a unique and engaging narrative. This creative approach not only broke conventions but also elevated the song's message, making it resonate deeply with audiences.

Undoubtedly, "No Be God" represents a pivotal moment in the Nigerian music scene, cementing its place as a classic in the evolution of hip-hop visuals in the country.

9. 'Oliver Twist' - D'Banj

In an era when Nigerian Afrobeats was still largely localised, D’banj’s collaboration with American rap icon Snoop Dogg on the remix of "Mr. Endowed" marked a groundbreaking moment. Tagged at the time as one of the hottest international collaborations between a Nigerian artist and a global star, the track—and its accompanying video featuring a cameo from Snoop Dogg—sparked immense excitement locally, as it signified the export potential of Nigerian music. Just a year later, D’banj reaffirmed this global trajectory with the release of the official music video for "Oliver Twist" in March 2012. Directed by renowned Nigerian cinematographer Sesan, the video showcased not only its high production quality but also star-studded cameos from G.O.O.D. Music rapper Pusha T and one of the world’s biggest artists, Kanye West.

This was a redefining moment for Nigerian music, signalling its growing influence on the global stage and solidifying D’banj’s position as a pioneer in bridging the gap between local sounds and international audiences

8. 'Holla at your Boy' - Wizkid

Everything about the "Holla at Your Boy" video screamed "new dawn" and "new school." Released in 2010, it marked the debut single of Wizkid and introduced a fresh wave of creativity to the Nigerian music scene. Directed by Patrick Ellis, a young and emerging Nigerian cinematographer at the time, the visuals captured the essence of the "new school" era in both style and substance. The video also spotlighted budding talents like Ice Prince, Skales, and Asa Asika—individuals who have since risen to global prominence in the entertainment world. Its concept was vibrant, youthful, and refreshing, reflecting the cultural shifts happening within the industry and among Nigeria's youth.

More than just a music video, "Holla at Your Boy" became a cultural blueprint, influencing fashion, mannerisms, and lifestyles for a new generation. It undeniably ushered in a new age for Nigerian music, shaping trends both within and beyond the entertainment sphere. Truly, a defining moment!

7. 'Bandana' - Fireboy DML and Asake

Directed by the renowned Nigerian cinematographer TG Omori, this video stands as a testament to the modern era of visually stunning music videos. It exemplifies effort, intentionality, teamwork, and, most importantly, impeccable quality. The visuals showcase a seamless blend of Afrocentric aesthetics and contemporary street culture. Set against a variety of dramatic backdrops, the video features striking imagery, including a choir adorned in flowing robes, Asake in a celestial-inspired setting, and Fireboy illuminated by bold, fiery lighting. These elements not only highlight the duo's spiritual undertones but also emphasise their individuality as artists.

Adding a futuristic twist, TG Omori incorporates a flying car scene, pushing creative boundaries and infusing the video with an innovative edge. This bold choice underscores how far the Nigerian music video scene has evolved in terms of output and quality, making "Bandana" a standout visual masterpiece.

6. 'Never Far Away' - Lagbaja

Another classic for the books, this video beautifully showcases African aesthetics—capturing its clothing, culture, lifestyle, and even musical instruments. Directed by the talented Tunde Kelani, it is a powerful fusion of artistry, cultural expression, and emotional depth. The video emphasises the themes of unity, togetherness, and the importance of community, which are central to the song's message. Complemented by the rich production of the song itself, the visuals celebrate African identity and aesthetics, telling an important and authentic story. Lagbaja’s choice of location, Abeokuta in Southwest Nigeria, effortlessly highlights the African landscape, with its striking rock formations, traditional homes, and expansive compounds known as Agbo Ile in Yoruba. These elements provide a vivid representation of local aesthetics, drawing attention to the beauty of rural African life.

Tunde Kelani’s signature cinematic style—characterised by cultural detail, compelling storytelling, and emotive visuals—perfectly captures the essence of Lagbaja’s music and message, creating a powerful sense of warmth and connection for the viewer.

5. 'Back in Uni' - Blaqbonez

Although not necessarily the crispiest in terms of quality, this video stands out as one of the most creative visuals of the modern era, earning its place in the spotlight. Known for his comedic persona, Blaqbonez infuses his unique charm into the co-directed visual alongside cinematographer Perliks. Together, they creatively reimagine popular Nigerian artists, with Blaqbonez portraying all the characters while expertly mirroring his colleagues' signature looks. It’s a truly memorable production and undoubtedly one for the books.

4. 'Fire on the Mountain' - Asa

Stepping away from the song's classical feel, the visuals perfectly complement its energy. The minimalist yet impactful cinematography, with its subtle colour tones and artistic framing, heightens the song's sombre yet urgent message. Asa navigates various settings in the video, portraying a world caught between turmoil and indifference. The visuals cleverly contrast moments of peace with scenes of struggle, emphasising the stark divide between the privileged and the suffering. One standout feature of the video is its originality—it feels like a groundbreaking concept that hasn’t been replicated by any Nigerian artist to date. Truly, it’s an exceptional piece of visual storytelling.

3. 'Ijoya' - Weird MC

The animated video for Weird MC's "Ijoya" is a vibrant and imaginative reimagining of the iconic hit, delivering a fresh and visually captivating experience. The animation brims with bold colors, dynamic movements, and playful caricatures that perfectly embody the song's energetic spirit. While Lagbaja’s "Surulere" was an earlier foray into animated Nigerian music videos, "Ijoya" quickly rose to prominence after its release, surpassing its predecessor in popularity. It became a cultural touchstone and remains the definitive example of animated Nigerian music videos.

2. 'Lagos Party' - Banky W

Banky W's "Lagos Party" video is a dazzling showcase of the vibrant Lagos social scene, celebrating the city’s deep love for luxury, style, and nightlife. It captures the essence of a quintessential Lagos highlife party, complete with stylish ensembles, infectious energy, and a star-studded guest list. More than just a music video, "Lagos Party" is a visual anthem for the Lagos lifestyle—where music, fashion, and celebration seamlessly collide. Widely regarded as one of the most iconic Nigerian music videos of all time, it perfectly encapsulates the glamour and excitement of Lagos nightlife. Featuring an unmatched roster of entertainment heavyweights, the video remains a benchmark for star power and creativity that has yet to be surpassed in Nigerian music history.

1. 'Do Me' - P-Square

Essentially the blueprint for clean, crisp, and aesthetically rich Nigerian music videos, this visual revolutionized the industry upon its release. It set a new standard, shaping the expectations of Nigerian audiences for music videos and defining the direction for entertainers to follow. In this video, P-Square seamlessly combines star power, captivating choreography, engaging activity, stunning visuals, and top-tier production quality.

Fans were eager to hear Lagbaja, who last performed at the AMVCA in 2022, back in action, delivering verses reminiscent of his classic hits like Nothing for You.

Subsequently, in an Apple Music interview, Fireboy DML revealed that even in the studio session, Lagbaja maintained his mysterious persona by never removing his mask, much to Fireboy’s amazement. The collaboration is considered one of Fireboy’s most successful endeavours, showcasing his ability to mix nostalgia with contemporary sounds.

Meanwhile, Afrobeats sensation Rema returned to his hometown of Benin City for a spectacular homecoming concert at Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium on August 30, 2024. This was Rema’s first show on Nigerian soil, and he did not disappoint. The concert drew thousands of fans and became a landmark event for the city. This is why it made it to the list of top 10 moments that shaped the Nigerian music industry in 2024.

Rema’s set was marked by electrifying performances of his hit songs, including Dumebi, Calm Down, and Charm. Special guests such as Mavin Record boss Don Jazzy, as well as Crayon and Shallipopi, made surprise appearances. This added to the excitement of the night.

One heartwarming moment came when Rema gifted two fans N2 million for their creative portraits of him. However, a brief commotion occurred when a fan jumped on stage during his performance of Ozeba. This led Rema to kick the fan off the stage. This action created a dramatic twist to the night but didn’t dampen the overall atmosphere.

Moreso, superstar Wizkid may finally be ready to drop his highly anticipated sixth studio album, titled Morayo. This is after teasing fans for months. Set to be released as a tribute to his late mother, who passed away in 2023, the album has been in the making for nearly two years. The singer, who has already released hits like More Love, Less Ego, is building expectations for his fanbase once again.

On September 2, 2024, Wizkid posted cryptic hints on his social media. He suggested the album, or at least a single, might drop on October 1, 2024—Nigeria’s Independence Day. The message, which read, “On the day of independence, the truth shall set us free RRR,” has fueled speculation.

6. Buju Banton’s critique of Afrobeats sparks response from Tems

"I understand where Buju Banton is coming from... Reggae is not Afrobeats and Afrobeats in Nigeria is specifically for escapism...that's the purpose of Afrobeats"

Additionally, Jamaican reggae icon Buju Banton stirred up controversy during an interview on the Drink Champs podcast, where he criticized the global dominance of Afrobeats. According to Buju, Afrobeats lacks depth and borrows heavily from Jamaican reggae and dancehall without acknowledging its roots. His statements provoked a strong reaction from both the African and Caribbean music communities.

However, Nigerian Afrobeats star Tems responded thoughtfully during an interview on the Shopping The Sneakers podcast. She explained that Afrobeats, especially in Nigeria, is primarily about creating a “vibe” and providing an escape for its listeners. This contrasts with the socio-political messaging often found in reggae and dancehall. Tems’ nuanced answer sparked a wider conversation about the cultural significance and evolution of both genres.

7. Rema’s experimentation with 'HEIS' album

Furthermore, Nigerian superstar Rema shocked the world with his latest album HEIS. This took bold experimental turns in terms of sound and style. In an interview with Complex Music, Rema shared that he wanted to push boundaries and break away from his usual Afrofusion style. This is despite his label’s initial reluctance.

The album blends various genres, incorporating elements of rock, R&B, and traditional African sounds. By this, drawing comparisons to Kanye West’s genre-bending Yeezus album. Rema embraced these comparisons, stating that he intended to introduce new textures to Afrobeats without losing his African roots. His willingness to take risks has paid off. HEIS is now being hailed as a forward-thinking project that signals the future of Afrobeats.

8. Rema, Omah Lay, Shallipopi featured on EA FC25 game soundtrack

Also, as part of moments that shaped the Nigerian music industry in 2024, Nigerian Afrobeats stars Rema, Omah Lay, and Shallipopi were featured on the official soundtrack for EA FC25. This is the rebranded version of EA Sports’ popular FIFA game series. Released on September 27, 2024, the soundtrack includes 114 songs from global artists. So, this is with Rema, Omah Lay, and Shallipopi representing Nigerian Afrobeats.

This recognition shows the increasing influence of Afrobeats in mainstream global culture, especially in sports and gaming. Past Nigerian artists like Davido, Olamide, and BNXN have also been featured on FIFA soundtracks. However, this year’s inclusion signals that Afrobeats is becoming a staple of the franchise.

9. Burna Boy’s iconic collaboration with Hugo Boss

Consequently, Burna Boy continues his global rise, not just as an artist but as a cultural icon. The Grammy-winning Afrobeats star was featured in Hugo Boss’ latest campaign. This is alongside global heavyweights such as Naomi Campbell and David Beckham. Burna Boy’s presence in the campaign emphasizes his crossover appeal. This solidifies his role as a global brand ambassador for African music and culture.

The brothers have been embroiled in a long-standing dispute over their music business, with the latest development being Rudeboy's announcement of P-Square's separation in an interview. Peter Okoye (Mr P) accused his brother, Paul, and their brother, Jude, of financial misappropriation, prompting Peter to file a petition with the EFCC.

In response, Peter released an open letter detailing his side of the story. He alleged that Paul and Jude conspired against him. Also, he stated that Jude secretly formed a company with his wife to divert P-Square's funds. However, Jude denied these claims in an Instagram Live session.

Meanwhile, amidst the bitter dispute, 2baba took to his Instagram story to share a remixed version of P-Square's hit song Forever. Additionally, he expressed his love and support for the trio. His message calls for unity and an end to the conflict. This is as the music industry and fans watch the drama unfold.

Although, the feud between the Okoye siblings shows no signs of abating, with each side presenting their version of events. However, 2baba's intervention is a rare public show of support from a fellow industry heavyweight. It highlights the concern and impact of the dispute on the music community.

The post 2baba intervenes in P-Square brothers' bitter feud, calls for unity appeared first on NotjustOk.

The brothers have been embroiled in a public feud since their fallout, which led to the disbandment of their music group.

In an Instagram live session, Rudeboy posed a heartfelt question to his brother. He asked why they couldn't maintain a brotherly bond despite their differences. "Even if we don't do P-Square, can't we be brothers?" he wondered. "Even if we can't do music, can't we be brothers?" Also, he expressed his disappointment at the situation, stating, "I don't want to talk much, it's so unfortunate."

Meanwhile, the P-Square feud between the twin brothers began when Rudeboy alleged that Mr P had gotten him arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). However, Mr P denied, instead accusing their elder brother, Jude Okoye, of embezzling P-Square's funds. The ongoing dispute has played out on social media, with both parties sharing their sides of the story.

The post Paul Okoye seeks brotherly love amid P-Square breakup and feud appeared first on NotjustOk.

Peter and Paul Okoye’s feud has led to a halt in their music collaboration as both of them now perform as solo artists. However, the P-Square feud offers valuable lessons to every individual.

Hence we've compiled a list of 5 valuable lessons every individual can learn from the ongoing P-Square feud.

1. Communication is key

Firstly, communication is an important factor in any relationship at all. This is evident in the ongoing P-Square feud. The feud clearly shows how important effective communication strengthen a relationship. Lack of communication, especially when misunderstandings and unaddressed issues occur, can lead to major conflicts. It is advisable for every individual to practice open, honest, and respectful communication. This will help prevent matters from escalating and offer solutions early enough. For instance, If Peter had expressed feeling disrespected by Paul’s actions before now, they might have addressed the issue privately, and the feud might have been avoided.

2. Separate personal and professional relationships

Secondly, it is necessary to separate personal and professional relationships to avoid conflicts. The saying “do not mix friendship with business” is correct. It is advisable to set clear boundaries and keep family matters apart from business matters. This will foster a healthy work and family relationship. Unfortunately, the Okoye brothers failed to understand this. For instance, it is obvious the P-Square group is operated as a family business with Jude Okoye their brother as their manager. One would think that at some point, he might feel entitled and feel he deserved more than he was getting from their earnings. Also, Jude’s wife was mentioned in Peter’s second letter. By this, she was dragged into the feud and this shows how mixing business and professional relationships can lead to conflict.  

Meanwhile, as 2Baba’s manager, Efe Omorogbe stated that, "You get what you negotiate, not necessarily what you 'deserve'." This explains the true nature of professional relationships. It depicts that agreements and contracts are based on mutual understanding and negotiation, not emotions or entitlement. He further explained that the 40/60 slit ratio in the P-Square case is in favour of the performing artist. Though, it was negotiated with Jude their manager and the founder of Square Records and Northside Entertainment. However, it has been perceived as unfair by some due to Jude’s multi-layered roles and contributions.

3. Respect individuality and autonomy

Additionally, it is safe to say Peter and Paul had different opinions and creative visions which contributed to their feud. They did not recognize or respect their individuality and autonomy within the group. This would have promoted harmony in their professional relationship. Respecting and acknowledging people’s individuality and autonomy will strengthen their bond and enhance growth.

4. Forgiveness and reconciliation are essential

Furthermore, the P-Square ongoing feud and temporary split shows that even the closest relationships can face challenges. Just like best friends fight, lovers fight, siblings fight. However, understanding each other’s point of view, forgiveness and willingness to reconcile are essential for healing and a stronger relationship. The Okoye brothers need to demonstrate genuine efforts towards forgiveness, reconciliation and healing. They keep coming on social media to call each other out, continuing the disagreement with no one actually trying to understand the other person’s pain or point of view.

5. Seek mediation and support

Consequently, seeking mediation and support especially when the conflict becomes one of public interest is crucial. Third-party intervention can help resolve the dispute and provide new perspectives. As of now, we do not know if the Okoye brothers have sought mediation or support in the ongoing feud. Although, former presidential candidate, Peter Obi visited them last week. However, the reason for his visit was not made public. Meanwhile, some celebrities and fans have weighed in on the P-Square feud urging the brothers to please resolve the issue and move on with making music but it is clear that they have not listened as the feud is still ongoing. If they had accepted help, their issues might have been resolved amicably.

Conclusively, the P-Square feud has given a reminder that relationships require effort. Also, understanding, effective communication and forgiveness strengthen any relationship. Individuals need to learn from the P-Square feud and apply these lessons in their own relationships with love and respect.

Morgan, who was signed to Okoye's record label, took to social media to express her anger and frustration, accusing Okoye of lying and witchcraft.

Also, she claimed that Okoye's story was fabricated and that she has been a victim of his lies for too long. Additionally, she warned him to leave her alone and face his brothers.

In a recent revelation, Jude shared a court document that outlines the royalty distribution among the group members, putting to rest speculation about his role in the group's finances.

According to the document, Jude Okoye is entitled to 25% of the group's royalties, while Peter and Paul Okoye of P-Square receive 30% each. So, the remaining 15% is allocated for the group's activities and expenses. This disclosure comes after Peter Okoye accused Jude of diverting funds meant for the singers and reported him to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Meanwhile, Jude's decision to share his side of the story follows intense backlash from fans who dragged him online. This prompted him to clear his name. Additionally, by releasing the court document, Jude aims to set the record straight and demonstrate his legitimate share of the group's earnings.

However, the controversy has sparked a heated debate among fans and industry observers. Also, many are calling for transparency and accountability in the music industry. Lastly, as the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen how this will impact the future of P-Square and its members.

Following a video shared by Jude Okoye where he opened up on the ongoing feud involving him and his brothers Paul and Peter Okoye, the former manager of the multiple award-winning singer and performer 2Baba, Efe Omorogbe has shared his thoughts on questions about if Jude Okoye should be taking 40% of the artists' earnings.

Jude Okoye had revealed that all funds made from the music pf P-Square had a sharing ratio of 40/60 (40% for Jude and 60% for P-Square at 30% each).

This revelation sparked a debate as to if Jude Okoye should be collecting at least 40% of the earnings. This prompted Efe's direct response, who took to his social media platform to share a post which read, "The P-SQUARE saga is a practical demonstration of the importance of tags, labels and perception in the business of entertainment. By simply replacing "Jude, the elder brother" with "Jude, the founder/C.E.O of Square Records and Northside Entertainment", the dynamics change significantly."

"By recognizing Jude's multi-layered roles as A&R/Creative Director, executive producer and sometimes financier, as opposed to just "manager", the notion of "the greedy older brother reaping much more than he has earned" becomes untenable."

"It's highly unlikely that a 40/60 split ratio in favour of the recording/performing artist in any other scenario would be perceived as draconian, and the exec would be as vilified as "Jude, elder brother and manager of P-Square" has been but as they say, you get what you negotiate, not necessarily what you "deserve"."
