DJs Kaywise, Maphorisa get ‘Alert’ with Mr Eazi

Pan-African collaborations are becoming more commonplace these days, as Nigerian frontline disc jockey, DJ Kaywise has shared the visuals to his latest single, Alert, a collaboration with South Africa frontline disc jockey, DJ Maphorisa and Banku Music boss, Mr. Eazi.

Released some weeks back, the colourful visual of the ‘Gqom’ inspired dance record is as exciting as the song to go with it. The popular disc jockey prominent, who is known for his signature sound, ‘Joor’ team up with the renowned South African beatsmith and the Banku Music boss on this catchy record.

The African music heavyweights on ‘Alert’ brought together facets of Nigerian pop culture and South African house music, making it a true melding of both countries.
No doubt of the fact, Mr. Eazi is having a fruitful 2019.

Mr Eazi has been fairly active since he dropped his latest mixtape, Life Is Eazi Vol 2. From releasing documentaries about the process of making that project, to dropping videos for some of the standout tracks, he hasn’t left us any room to forget about him.

Handling the catchy hook and two verses, the Accra to Lagos crooner talks about how hard he works to ensure that his alerts keep coming in, while also boasting about how all the girls who used to reject him now want him due to his present status.

The lively music video, which was directed by Nate Thomas, features the three artistes in colourful streets, surrounded by energetic, vibrantly dressed dancers as they perform. Later, they head to the bank to make it rain with several bills.

The track is a definite party-starter that seamlessly fuses elements of Nigerian and South African pop.
