In less than 2 years, young rapper oLamide, has gained attention with just one single ‘Eni duro’ which was accompanied by a very creative video and subsequently, his debut album ‘Rapsodi‘.
While most of the other ‘Yoruba-lingo’ speaking rappers were struggling to outclass the late Dagrin‘s style, oLamide took on another lane and distinguished himself. His debut single and video played a major role in creating an image for himself. Props should also go to DJ Tee for the brilliant video directing in ‘Eni duro‘.
But if the Coded Tunes rapper thought he could relive the experience once again with the video to ‘Omo to shan’ which features Wizkid, then he should hold video director DJ Tee responsible for killing any possible chance. ‘Omo to shan‘ could have been the next big hit if only DJ Tee hadn’t bungled it.
The video to the second single lacks direction and concept. One would wonder what was going through DJ Tee’s mind when he was shooting the video. The story starts out right from the beginning then takes a sharp left in the lane of mediocrity. Make up – poor, camera handling – poor. A ‘Tales By Moonlight‘ episode would win an award over this.

No one could ever believe DJ tee shot that vedio,I personally stiLl can believe it.he needs to understand things like this will ultimately affect his brand and bring him low in the ranking.so many things would have been responsible for that wak vedio,maybe coded tunes didn’t pay enough money to run high concept and all dat.but Dj tee should understand that as a brand you don’t do things out of pity or for relationship reason then compromising your standards and principles.bussiness should be handled the way it suppose to.am so dissapointed.DJ tee got it all wrong this time.why destroy a good case with a bad approach.noting kills a good song than a bad vedio and noting helps a bad song like a good vedio.they all got it wrong.
olamide can as well try another director
