So Flavour still doesn’t like to wear shirts… and 4 other things SK Johnson learnt from the ‘Ada Ada’ video

The latest video to hit the Nigerian music scene comes from Flavour and is in support of his latest single “Ada Ada.” The visual (which is quite splendid, by the way) was released 3 days ago and along with it came a myriad of lessons for the viewer, the top 5 of which we present to you below.

1. Flavour still isn’t a fan of shirts.

Shirtless

Has Flavour ever released a music video in which he was fully clothed throughout? That’s doubtful, and if anybody was hoping this would be the first one, well, you thought wrong. At this point the only logical conclusion is that there’s some special piece of equipment always present on Flavour’s video shoot sets, which generates so much heat he has no choice but to take off his shirt and cool off.

 

2. Clarence Peters is still everywhere.

I’d hate to be a Clarence Peters hater because I imagine I would have killed myself by now if that were the case, what with his name being everywhere I turn, and all. I don’t even want to imagine what his schedule looks like. The director’s work rate is nothing short of prolific and it’s pretty clear his ubiquitous presence in the Nigerian music industry is not letting up soon.

3. When Flavour wants to sing, nothing else matters.

Clearly Flavour’s desire to sing trumps anything else other inferior mortals might want to do, or be doing already. Why else would he be in a room, singing as a man is talking on the phone to the woman he’s about to marry?

4. Celebrity cameos are the new strobe lights.

Good news, photosensitive epileptics out there; you no longer have to live in fear of a Nigerian music video coming on screen and sending you into a fit due to an excessive use of flashing lights. Those have since been tossed to the side of the trend-tracks to make room for the celebrity cameos without which no Nigerian music video is complete today. Thankfully those aren’t a health hazard to anyone. So we hope, at least.

5. Flavour’s eyes are very sensitive.

So sensitive, in fact, that he has to wear shades at night, in the middle of a forest. Here’s hoping he finds an optician who can help him correct the problem.
