The story of this song and video ehn!!!! I have realised that sometimes in moving forward one needs to look back.
Someone tagged me in this video today and it brought back a lot of memories and reminded me of lessons in entrepreneurship that I needed to remember.
1. Have a dream….See it clearly
2. There is nothing wrong with taking something old and redefining it
3. You don’t need everything to be in place – start where you are
4. Allow people to help you… Noah did not build that ark alone!
5. Don’t be afraid to knock on doors but be prepared by knowing exactly who to ask for what- everything is not always about money.
6. Be fearless in pursuit of what sets your soul on FIRE!
I made a call to Eldee about the song concept. He recognised that call as significant so much so we had to record it again and it became the intro to the song.
I wrote a video script, wrote a list of what was needed to achieve each scene, I knocked on EVERY door I had access to through the help of my family and friends. We got locations for free -Eko Hotel, Apapa Casino, Kunle Bello‘s crib on Gerrard (I am forever indebted).
We even did product placements (Little did we know ). Eldee shot this on a Camcorder!!! We didn’t even finish all the scenes, had to improvise. Then some drama happened and it had to be re-edited courtesy Uncle Remi Ogunpitan.
All in all God was and has continued to be faithful. So to all the artists out there waiting for a hand-out just know that the hustle is indeed sold separately and I pray your dreams come true.
No Fields Found.
