This is more videos for viewers out there, whether you have been following us or are new to us, we are sure there is something in here for you. Again, we promise to bring you the best from high to low budget, to animated to DIY and first and foremost, the most creative visuals we can source.

 

 

Modenine – “A Hero has come 2 “

The legendary UK-based Nigerian emcee Modenine helps set this video playlist off with “A Hero has come 2 “, an action-packed track that sees the rapper as the anti-hero who has come to save the game from wack rappers. Over a sombre and ominous soundscape, Modenine gets a call from his handler who alerts him of the re-emergence of some vagrant rappers/DJs and hypemen and proceeds to decommission using verbal brute force. The accompanying visual is completely animated and is engaging from start to finish plus it’s fun to watch Modenine single-handedly take down an entire platoon of rappers.
