The GTW's Chigerian Summertime Serenade 'Calling Cards'
Watch the summertime love video for The GTW's "Calling Cards," off his upcoming 'Chigeria' LP
<p>Chicago-based Nigerian <a href="http://www.okayafrica.com/tag/the-gtw/"><strong>The GTW</strong></a> is preparing the release of <em>Chigeria</em> later this year. "Calling Cards," the self-produced lead single from that upcoming album, features an upbeat 90s tempo song and flattering falsetto from The GTW as he sings "I can't spell my future with you" in a way one would serenade their high school crush. The GTW continues to assemble the carefully-crafted sound of his group <a href="https://soundcloud.com/itsjodybaby" target="_blank"><strong>JODY</strong></a> with this smooth upbeat track. The visuals show the singer/rapper spending a last day with his girlfriend before she moves. It's filmed like a daydream with sudden flashbacks of feelings he had while in the relationship and after their separation. Check out the "Calling Cards" video, directed by Andre Muir & The GTW, below.</p><p><div class="preroll-video"></div><ora-player></ora-player></p><p><span style="display:block;position:relative;padding-top:56.25%;" class="rm-shortcode" data-rm-shortcode-id="11082a992a1c669777c1f30a9ed775e1"><iframe type="lazy-iframe" data-runner-src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/hZsIuwedtmg?rel=0" width="100%" height="auto" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" style="position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;"></iframe></span></p>
