Popularly called the African Soul, Waje lays herself emotionally bare in the just released music video for her hit heartbreak single – I WISH directed by Clarence Peters.
Themed Lifeless, Naked and Vulnerable, the edgy music video uses different themed moods; the broken mirror scene reflects the broken theme of the song, the black bride with a torn wedding gown explores the depths of depression and the red rose-petaled bath scene plays with the concept of a heart beaten ice-cold.
In this video, Waje departs from her usual sweetheart persona to take on a metaphoric range of carefully themed characters. The unusual theme set and depth gives this powerful music video an unforgettable feel.
Waje was styled by BOLAJI, Make-up by JJB and hair by Debs.
