UGANDA: Naija meets Uganda on Lilian Mbabazi's new music video

Ex-Blu*3 member Lilian Mbabazi teased fans with a 21-second snippet of her new music video Only You featuring Nigeria's Orezi. The music video’s opener which comprises lavish drone shots of the Kalagala Falls section of the River Nile in Jinja. A medium shot of Orezi peering into the distance cuts into a full dolly shot of Lilian clad in a loose-fitting yellow dress followed by a slow-mo routine from a quartet of sensual belly dancers. Lilian then closes off the snippet with a lyric off the song that fades into "coming soon" text. The marching band and brass instrument intro holds the promise of yet another banger from the artiste who is emerging from an extended break following her highly billed solo show at Kampala Serena Hotel last year. And while she has scaled down her regular gigs at Big Mike’s “After Work Like It Should Be” Thursday theme night, Lilian now seems to prefer the company of seasoned musicians like her Friday February 26th appearance with Afrigo Band at Guvnor’s monthly Friday Night Live treat. Only You was shot by celebrated Ugandan videographer Sasha Vybz. Her co-star Orezi, who was in Uganda for the video shoot last November, is all the rage in Nigeria currently. His debut album “The Gehn Gehn” features the star-studded continental talent of Davido, Wizkid and Timaya. Look out for Only You coming soon on www.mdundo.com
