Let Olayinka Ehi's 'Jeje' Kick Start Your Week
The Nigerian-born singer comes through with a dance video for her addictive single.
Olayinka Ehi is a Nigerian-born, New York-based afro soul singer who we've previously covered for her beautiful take on Nina Simone.
Earlier this year, she dropped the 4-song Story EP which showcases her explorations on the topics of love and culture.
"Jeje," one of the highlights off that EP, is a solid track carried by the singer's soulful vocals and some addictive beat work. Though relatively short, it packs a serious afrobeats dance punch in its 2-minute duration.
<p>The music video, which was directed by <strong><a href="https://www.instagram.com/whoismarcusg/" target="_blank">Marcus G</a></strong>, features some smooth dancing from <strong><a href="https://www.instagram.com/izzyodigie/" target="_blank">Izzy Odigie</a>.</strong></p><p>You can also spot Olayinka's own fashion designs on display in the new clip. </p><p><div class="preroll-video"></div><ora-player></ora-player></p><p>Let Olayinka's "Jeje" kick start your week below.</p><p class="shortcode-media shortcode-media-youtube">
