Penned by Nigerian-American rapper and producer, Eldee, ‘Rep 4 Nigeria’ which featured Naeto C, M.I. and Sound Sultan, is an original composition that features contemporary stars and commissioned by MTV base as part of the celebrations for Nigeria’s independence.
‘Rep 4 Nigeria’ is a call for young Nigerians to ‘rep’ their country and their area with pride. Each of the artists involved wrote their own verse, with R&B artist and ‘Naija Ninja’ Sound Sultan writing and performing the infectiously catchy ‘hook’ and chorus.
The music video for ‘Rep 4 Nigeria’ was directed by video ace Clarence Peters and filmed on location in Lagos, featuring Eldee, Naeto C, M.I. and Sound Sultan. The music video premiered on MTV base last Monday before going on exclusive A-list rotation on MTV base, guaranteeing at least thirty spins a week for the stirring track.
Alex Okosi, Senior Vice President and Managing Director, MTV Networks Africa, remarked that “MTV Networks Africa is thrilled to be the catalyst in the creation of ‘Rep 4 Nigeria,’ a poignant and inspirational track that shows Nigerian artists affirming their pride and optimism in the 50th anniversary of their nation.”
