WizKid Feat. Femi Kuti - Jaiye Jaiye (Official Video)

Starboy Ent & Empire Mates Entertainment are proud to present the video for "Jaiye Jaiye"... the first single off of WizKid's highly anticipated sophomore album "Chosen". The song was produced by the incredible hitmaker Sarz, and features the legendary Femi Kuti. The video was directed by Sesan, and shot in Lagos at the historic Shrine location, and actually features a very creative "cameo" from Fela Anikulakpo Kuti himself.
This is the first video from what is sure to be an amazing album, and
we hope you enjoy it as you watch. Stay tuned for so much more from
StarBoy & E.M.E.

[@naija4lifeNaija4lifestyle]

Ogochi Nmerem Please STICK with the Yoruba Version / Translation of Jaiye-Jaiye which means someone who LOVES enjoying Life. For anyone who fully understands the Yoruba language, it is OBVIOUS that Whizkid is singing about how Grateful he is that God has Blessed him and how he would love to buy a house for his mum, Beautiful things for his wife etc,etc. He is NOT singing in Igbo and so, the other insinuation DOES NOT APPLY HERE!

[@naija4lifeNaija4lifestyle]
