VIDEO: Olamide – Young Erikina


Olamide has quickly released a video for “Young Erikina“, a song we posted just a little over a week ago. In the words of ID Cabasa, this video is “…a sunday gift to all those that support us! It’s Young Erikina again. A rough video for everyone to watch before we shoot the original.

So, we’re told to expect a real video. However, I like how simple this is. Left to me, this would be the final video as it’s different and very engaging. Tune for dayssss!!!!!

Directed by Patrick Elis.

  1. I like this guy….. He was the only one on the video and it wasnt boring….
    Like the way they played with the colours though…..
    Digging it…..

  2. I.D Cabasa should be among the top 3 most sought after producers… I only have a pity that 9ice left him. He was almost single-handedly the brain behind his success. He has struggled thereafter. Olamide, i can smell another superstar kid in the making.

  3. wowzers…It's official I like this kid…not because of this video or this song (maybe partially because of it) but mainly because this makes his third song/video I have seen and Im not disappointed…first was Eni Duro, I thought it was a little Lil'Wayne-ish but the video, the undefined charisma and a bit of comic relief I got from it made me give it an ok and added to the playlist, then there was Omo to Shan..I thought Wizkid carried the track but then again, Wizzy was able to carry the track because he was on it (weird I know, but their combination made that track, remove either one and the track is dead), now we have this one, it seems somewhat retrospective and introspective, and the production makes you just want to listen…and all this without understanding one word of the Yoruba he is speaking in the songs (ok maybe not really one word, but u get the point)

    PS: I also like the fact that I know him only for his music, not his party hopping, childish antics or any unnecessary drama…he is letting his craft speak for him and not some photo ops or what have you (those are cool btw), but sometimes keeping a low profile is high profile PR. Keep your flag flying young man.

  4. Oh BTW I honestly think there should be no other video, because it would probably not be as good as this…the simplicity of this just flows with the tempo of the beat and his flow makes this work effortlessly

  6. Really like the ''Montage'' , Good Job man, One take but still interesting , you guys did well. OLAMIDE His the man. Patrick Elis great job looking forward to the next one.

  7. He calls it #unofficial…Well i call it the Official video..Especially when he got me pressing the replay button three time..9/10…

  8. ABEG! The song is tight but the video is very basic – Even for a one take/online sturvs. How many times can you actually watch it before getting bored – thats the real test. Looks like a rush to get something online. Calling a spade a spade!!

  9. just a quick one..this video is perfect,reminds me of some of jcoles first videos(who dat and young simba- one take)..dont do any other video,it cant get better than this..goodjob…now i'm finidi i just judged this. lol

  11. Song tor badt…..I had to download this video on my Ipod. Olamide just made my playlist, he would just have to compete with Adele. Cuz I love her scata.

  12. There should be NO other video!!!! This is absolutely official! If they make anoda it'll mess it up.. This is PERFECT!!! Madt ass stuff! I Cant get enuf of it… Basic but mad koool!

  13. Damn, its been a while i post a comment here but the Young Erikina track would nt let me go after listening…Olamide(yahoo boi no laptop, Yong erikina), this track is banging and for your unofficial video(that would knock out so many official video in a Video contest)…ur delivery and sway is dope..

  14. ethnic punchline for days….olamide is da hardest ethnic rapper….confirmed!

    "yahoo boy no laptop, always pinging but my money dey pile up"…lol
