Meet 7 Directors Behind Wizkid’s Hit Music Videos by GoggleB(m): 2:21pm On Aug 29, 2016
Wizkid is the real MVP at the moment, getting major collaborations and recognition across Africa, and beyond.

1. Clarence Peters

Clarence took Wizzy to the streets of Lagos to shoot the video of his monster hit ‘Ojuelegba’, which went on to be remixed by Drake and UK rapper, Skepta , as well as by Ghanaian rapper, Sarkodie.
Produced by Legendury Beatz , ‘Ojuelegba’ is the fifth track off Wizkid’s self-titled studio album, Ayo , released in September 2014.
Clarence, who’s arguably Nigeria’s biggest music video director, also shot the well received video of ‘Pakurumo’ off the 2011 Superstar album.

2. Sesan Ogunro

Wizkid teamed up with Sesan for the video of ‘Baba Nla’.
In October 2013, Sesan, who had earlier been contracted to make a video for Davido ’s hit song ‘Skelewu’, fell out with the self-styled OBO (Omo Baba Olowo) after the video made for the song by Sesan was rejected Davido. Things got worse when the video leaked online.
They have since kissed and made up in September 2014 in New York City, but Sesan’s relationship with Wizkid has remained incomparable.

Season also directed Expensive Shit
‘Expensive Shit’ video was shot in South Africa.
With videos for ‘Jaiye Jaiye’ featuring Femi Kuti , ‘On Top Your Matter’, and ‘Sound it’ on the list, Sesan has never failed to impress.
Sarz was the producer of the song ‘Sound It’.
‘On Top Your Matter’ is off WizKid’s sophomore album ‘Ayo’, the video was shot in Johannesburg, South Africa.
