The music video, directed by Daps and shot in Lagos, opens with a striking cityscape. Dancers in vibrant costumes and Davido’s effortless charm create a visual feast that pairs well with the song’s lyrical heat.Davido’s collaboration with YG Marley on “Awuke” shows that he continues to master the art of blending genres and cultural influences to create commercially appealing and artistically meaningful music.
YG Marley’s verse balances Davido’s playful proclamations. Marley croons, “Girl, it’s not what you’re used to; Ima shows you love from the new school,” promising a different, modern love experience.His lyrics paint a picture of freedom and connection, grounded in his Jamaican roots while seamlessly blending with Davido’s Nigerian flair. This duality makes “Awuke” a cross-cultural anthem that resonates with listeners across Africa and the Caribbean.
The dancers, clad in white against a Lagos cityscape, set the tone for a modern track yet rooted in tradition. The highlight scenes include Davido seated amidst lush flowers and a crowd of choreographed dancers moving in sync, showing off the latest Awuke dance moves already trending online.For me, one of the stand-out depictions in the music video is the remarkable beach scenes, traditional Nigerian attire, and dark-skinned women performing choreography.
