Burna Boy formally called has released the visuals for his new music 'Odogwu' directed by TG Omari which premiered on 16th March 2020.
The music video was posted on YouTube and his online music distribution platforms. The countdown to the release was done on Twitter and Burna Boys Instagram account.
Burna Boy has employed various significant styles in this music video Odogwu. Burna Boy has pus his culture on display from the title “Odogwu” which is an Igbo name with contextual meanings such as 'victor, leader, and or hero.
The music video by TG Omori features shots of Burna surrounded by warriors at various rituals, colorfully dressed and adorned. The various scenes including a seaside with boats racing through the background add to the rich culture of the Igbo and presents Burna Boy as both creative and captivating.
Earlier this year Burna boy had asserted that He is the best in Africa since Fela Kuti and we have a strong belief that the video is a reiteration of this message. In the Music Video, we see him surrounded by chiefs raising their arms once in a while to affirm the title of 'The Great Man'.
Burns Boy is set to begin his tour on May 7th in Atlanta and end around June 7th in Dallas. This marks his first release in 2020.
