P-Square And Awilo Longomba Share The Underground Dance Battle Video For 'Enemy Solo'

Nigerian twins P-Square link up with Congolese soukous star Awilo Longomba in the underground dance battle video for "Enemy Solo."

Nigerian twins P-Square link up with Congolese soukous star Awilo Longomba for the upbeat collaboration "Enemy Solo." As the artists explain, "Enemy Solo" in Lingala means "'Enemy Bad Smell,' which simply refers to enemies of progress, or as Nigerians will call it 'Bad Belle' people." The Clarence Peters-directed music video takes place in an underground dance battle for which P-Square and Awilo are judges. For more from P-Square, download their recent #Free4Fans track giveaways and revisit their Don Jazzy-featuring video for "Collabo." Watch the visuals for "Enemy Solo" below.
