Have you watched popstar, David Adeleke aka Davido’s latest video,
‘Fans Mi’ featuring American rapper, Meek Mill? Then you will agree that
no child under the age of 18 should see it.
Even though music videos have since been reduced to nothing more than
scantily-dressed ladies shaking their butts, and the glorification of
drunkenness, Davido’s video pushes the boundary of decency.
From the first view, one’s eyes are assailed by lots of cash
displayed on a table with several types of guns. As if that is not bad
enough, nearly Unclad girls are spotted dancing raunchily in almost
every scene of the video.
The story-line of the video is worse. Davido tries to seal a deal
with a drug dealer to supply cocaine while the dealer hands him cases of
dollars for the transaction.
Davido then goes back to his mansion where he can be seen aided by
the brassieres-and-panties flaunting ladies preparing the cocaine.
It is not until the end of the video that we get to see that the
cocaine Davido delivered to the drug dealer was only semovita (a local
Nigerian food).
We must ask though: what is he trying to teach his fans who are
largely made up of impressionable youths? That it is okay to engage in
the sale of illicit drugs to make money? Or that guns are now suddenly
‘cool’ toys to have?
