Olamide just dropped the official video for his hit single, “Hello Habibi,” a song epitomized by energy and style. First embraced by fans for its catchy beat, the song takes on even more meaning with the addition of a guest verse from Russ, who brought an added layer of intensity to the track.
Developed by Rami, “Hello Habibi” is a genre-mixing piece of art that integrates elements of Afrobeat with laid-back hip-hop undertones. Russ drops a very relaxed and nonchalant verse, which contrasts sharply with the energetic and vivid flow Olamide goes about. The way the different styles interact gives an enthralling balance that lifts the song even more.
With energetic visuals and sharp cinematography, the music video gives an even bigger punch, defining the core of this song. With its stunning set designs, stylish costumes, and clever editing, the “Hello Habiti” video offers an electrifying visual that parallels the unique auditory characteristics in this song.
Coinciding perfectly with the onset of the weekend, Olamide and Russ present an exceptional collaboration that is likely to remain frequently played.
