Yemi Alade, an afrobeats musician, has decided not to release the “Pounds and Dollars” music video.
One of the major songs from her hugely popular “African Baddie” EP released late last year was the collaboration with Penthauze rapper Phyno.
On Thursday, the acclaimed music director Clarence Peters’ video, which he directed, will be made available on all platforms.
Due to Yemi’s lyrics, which emphasised the value of hard labour and prayer, the hit song from her third EP was labelled a prayer song by many.
On the track, the songstress sang, “What’s gonna be is gonna be, my mama says, do the necessary and get down on your knees. What’s gon be is gon be, pray every day, do the necessary, your hustle go pay”.
In December, a visualiser was dropped to whet the appetite of fans who took to social media to express their expectations for a video of the song.
The visualiser currently has over 479,000 views and 3000 likes.
On social media platforms, many also spoke about how the artist is talented at dropping hits.
Although the single from the acclaimed “International African Baddie” did not pop the charts, it did well on local Nigerian charts.
With its entry into the YouTube charts, the single has made it to the top 100.
