This is Felabration week (10th-16th of October). Ayodeji Rotinwa already wrote about the absence of conscience in our music; now @YINGY_FLEMMING is lamenting about the dearth of creativity in music videos.
Here’s what he thinks:
I'm sick of half naked girls rubbing their body and lips all over music videos. Is that really all a woman can do??

Don't tell me shit like "if you don't use sexy girls, the video will not sell" correct the mindset nigga! Correct it! If you care….
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
There's so much you can make the female vixen in the video do. Instead of zooming in on her sexually approving her self for the male gaze.
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
And apart from the naked thing, the whole video movement is so cliche!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you lot not get creative producers and directors?
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
Your song is about hard life and how you got rich, the video has 1000 half naked chicks twerking on top my tv screen.

Your music video be operating two seasons in one scene- Guys in winter jackets and boots while the girls are in bikinis and bum shorts.

Most of all, a lot of you young things have misunderstood the concept of riches and wealth.

Driving a Ferrari, women at the back of your ride rubbing ur hairy chest, throwing money in the air, smoking loud….false representation.
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
I'm wayyyy too sick of music videos that still pass the same "in the club" "get bitches" "money money" "get high" yada yada type of shit.
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
Invest in creative people that can visually direct your music!
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
All the videos you've released have been free styled. Please why are you an artiste?

Even the girls that are twerking all over the screen their strong-strong weave and make up needs attention.
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
How are you twerking in a windy scene and your weave is still stationary please?
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
I don't know what sort of law of gravity has kidnapped your weave girl but God dey.

Like some Nigerian music videos I was watching earlier today, my days please leave the ass and pay attention to the details of the video!!!
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
Hair and make up total mess, story line was in Kano, music was in Enugu. The video was everywhere and the same cliche music video.
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
I'm not sorry, but I'm a visual person. When I see things that draw my attention I would speak about them if I feel like.
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
Designer clothes, Ferrari, chains, sexy girls, leather jacket, dollars in the air, loud, American accent, club scene, back drop scene…
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
…Typical stuff! I'm not saying these can't be used to portray your music, I'm only questioning the female figure and cliche music videos.
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
So again, why is it the woman is usually half naked, almost doing nothing but rubbing your chest, her body and licking her lips?
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
Shout out to artiste who are creative in visualizing their music to the world.
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
As a guy, before you waste your fingers typing up some dead "male view" opinion in my mentions, I'll recommend you think both ways first.
— YINGIBOERE (@yingi_flemmming) October 12, 2016
So what do you guys think: true or false?
