Have you watched popstar, David Adeleke aka Davido’s latest video, ‘Fans Mi’ featuring American rapper, Meek Mill?

Then you will agree that no child under the age of 18 should see it. Even though music videos have since been reduced to nothing more than scantily-dressed ladies shaking their butts, and the glorification of drunkenness, Davido’s video pushes the boundary of decency.

From the first view, one’s eyes are assailed by lots of cash displayed on a table with several types of guns. As if that is not bad enough, nearly naked girls are spotted dancing raunchily in almost every scene of the video.

The story-line of the video is worse. Davido tries to seal a deal with a drug dealer to supply cocaine while the dealer hands him cases of dollars for the transaction. Davido then goes back to his mansion where he can be seen aided by the brassieres-and-panties flaunting ladies preparing the cocaine. It is not until the end of the video that we get to see that the cocaine Davido delivered to the drug dealer was only semovita (a local Nigerian food).

We must ask though: what is he trying to teach his fans who are largely made up of impressionable youths? That it is okay to engage in the sale of illicit drugs to make money? Or that guns are now suddenly ‘cool’ toys to have?

Hmm.but i've already seen it


Besides you just succeeded in advertising it to 'children'.

THE VIDEO IS STRICTLY ADULT


ALMOST NAKED FINE BABES IN ALMOST ALL D SCENE.

He's in love with the coco

Okay

ok

I concur.

That video will give some bad kids ideas

He's an artisit! Thats what he does....he's entertaining or maybe he should av put "dont try this @ home?"...abeg swerve!

Ok

Seconded

First time I saw the video, that thought hit me too. Forming gangster aint Davido's thing. Also, the poundo yam abi semo as cocaine prank is too expensive pls.

happy Sunday friend

He was promoting drug usage despite the fact say no be real coke dem use for the video.
And that is what Alot of children won't know.

Seriously the kind of influence these hip hop artists is having on kids is disturbing, a 3yrs old boy singing olamide 'won fe ladi e iranu aba sha'. Am seriously worried

If your child can be so easily influenced by a music video then they have a parent or guardian problem.

What are his fans got to do with the story line self??

Fans mi ko, cocain mi ni.


Mtchew!

Musicians in Nigeria are scarce. Once ur song has a good beat and nice rhythm then u re called a "good musician" in Naija. But in d real sense, good music shud b more about good lyrics & apt message not just "beats"
