Praise and Bez
Nigerian soul-jazz artiste, Bez, made history as the first African, whose video made a world premiere on BET’s 106 & Park on Tuesday, January 31, 2012.
Bez, who recently shot the video to ‘That stupid song’ which features fast rising R&B singer Praiz, has already received a few video spins on BET International along with Nigerian pop singer, Wizkid.
The video was directed by Clarence Peters.
Signed to CAMP (Cobhmas Asuquo Music Production), Bez released his debut work ‘Super Sun’ late last year to positive reviews.
‘We sent the final edit of the music video to a contact at the Programming and Production department of BET Network, they reached out to us at Cobhams Asuquo Music Productions to find out if we would consider airing the video on both BET International and CENTRIC (local U.S. television). We are told that Bez is the first African act to be given the honor of their music video to world premiere on BET International. Clarence Peters did an amazing job on the video. "We hope the fans love it", Enyi Omeruah, Bez's manager, tells Net
I am so loving this song and you can almost feel the merged talents oozing from it, but then again, this is hardly surprising, coming from a Cobhams Asuquo production. I like the fact also that the song is different from the usual 9ja beats that we are so accustomed to hearing. It has a Musiq Soulchild/D'Angelo/John Legend/Mo'town kinda chill out vibe about it, coupled with the Naija mix. I think i get what it's all about and the "stupid songs" had me in stitches as i went down memory lane. I can't believe i also heard "Timbo Timbo Bas Calabar"! Lmao! Well done guys. Way to go!!!
