Harcher Drops Visually Stunning “Stamina” Official Music Video

Afro-fusion rising star Harcher has released the official music video for his viral hit “Stamina”—and it’s everything fans hoped for and more. Now streaming on YouTube, the video is already creating waves with its bold visuals style and emotionally uplifting narrative.
If the song’s already playing in your head, you’re not alone. Since its release, “Stamina” has taken over airwaves, clubs, and playlists with its irresistible fusion of Afrobeats, dancehall, and smooth R&B. But more than just a catchy single, and deeply relatable to a generation hustling for something greater.
Now, with acclaimed director TG Omori leading the charge, the “Stamina” music video steps up its game and delivers a whole new level of visual storytelling.
Filmed in the midst of Lagos, the clip is raw, vibrant, and unapologetically frenetic. From altercations in backstreets to all-out street parties, each shot is laden with energy and meaning. The opposition, the disorientation, the hues—it’s the kind of video you find yourself watching again and again.
In Harcher’s own words: “This video isn’t about the appearance only—it’s part of my story. ‘Stamina’ is a reflection of resilience, of grinding when grind is real. I wanted the visuals to sear with that same passion.”
And it’s paying dividends. Social media is abuzz—TikTok challenges, YouTube awards, and fans everywhere congratulating the cinematography and Harcher’s riveting on-screen presence. Audiences are referring to it as raw, empowering, and an actual Lagos experience.
Even the critics are paying attention. NaijaRhythms’ Bolanle Adeyemi praised the video as “a masterstroke of vision and vibe,” further stating that Harcher is fast solidifying himself among Afro-fusion’s emerging stars.
In its first hour of availability on YouTube, “Stamina” had already garnered more than 50,000 views—evidence that this is no hype, but a movement.
The official “Stamina” video drops on YouTube and you’re able to stream the single on Spotify, Apple Music, Audiomack, and all other platforms.

Mr Eazi’s “Corny” Is Unapologetically Sweet and Surprisingly Real

Mr Eazi’s new video “Corny” doesn’t chase attention. It doesn’t rely on shock value or flashy edits. Instead, it invites you into a moment—soft, playful, a little bit awkward, and completely honest. It feels less like a performance and more like a man caught up in something he doesn’t mind being teased for.
From the opening scene, the mood is clear. This isn’t a stylised fantasy or a music video dressed up in metaphors. It’s simple, deliberate, and full of charm. Eazi leans fully into the role of a man who knows he’s “doing too much” and couldn’t care less. He’s giddy, expressive, and happy to play the fool if it means staying close to the one who has his attention.
Visually, the video does exactly what it needs to. The colours are warm and inviting. The scenes feel relaxed, with no frantic camera cuts or overdone filters. His leading lady doesn’t play a silent accessory—she matches his energy with subtle looks and teasing gestures, creating a dynamic that feels real rather than scripted. Their back-and-forth tells the story better than the lyrics alone could.
The beat is soft but steady, laying the groundwork for Eazi’s understated vocals. There’s no drama in the production—just a clean groove that makes space for his words. The lyrics aren’t poetic or complicated; they’re direct, honest, and laced with humour. He admits to being “corny,” but the way he owns it makes it charming, not cringey.
What stands out most is how comfortable the whole video feels. There’s no pressure to perform, no attempt to look hard or mysterious. Mr Eazi allows himself to be open in a way that’s rare in modern pop culture—especially from male artists. He doesn’t need to pretend he’s indifferent. He shows up as someone who feels deeply and isn’t afraid to be seen.
By the end, “Corny” leaves you smiling—not because it tries to be funny, but because it feels familiar. It captures that moment when you stop trying to play it cool and just enjoy the feeling for what it is. No ego, no filter—just a man making it clear he’s into someone, and doing it in a way that feels easy to root for.

Burna Boy Teases “Change Your Mind” with Shaboozey — Drops July 8

Burna Boy is here again with another song and this time, he’s bringing the heat with something fresh. He just dropped a new teaser titled “Change Your Mind” featuring Shaboozey, and from what we’ve seen so far, it’s already looking like a vibe. It’s set to be released on July 8, just a few days before his upcoming album No Sign of Weakness, which comes out July 11.
In the short clip shared online, Burna Boy and Shaboozey are seen parked in a deserted area, both dressed in full cowboy outfit — from head to toe. The setting is chilled and calm, like two music stars on a road trip. The sound is a little laid-back, calm and soulful which is different from what we usually hear from Burna Boy. But that’s what makes it captivating.
The song feels smooth, it’s something you’d want to listen to while driving or relaxing. Burna boy’s vocals are strong as usual, and that’s where Shaboozey comes in with his cool country-style energy that surprisingly compliments Burna’s afro-fusion sound. It’s a duo we didn’t know we needed.
Shaboozey, who is known for adding a country twist to hip-hop, also has Nigerian roots. This was a collab we never saw coming, so even though their sounds or accents are different, the way they effortlessly sync makes sense. Burna Boy holds down the chorus with his usual powerful aura, while Shaboozey adds a softer, Western-style balance. Together, they created something special.
The visual theme is cinematic and impressively seamless. Think winding roads, sun-bleached tones, and the slow pan that builds anticipation. The placement of the camera gives it a movie-like feel. You already know Burna boy doesn’t play when it comes to visuals.
This track is part of Burna boy’s new album and it’s already clear that he’s working hard to make new sounds and styles. Other tracks on the album will feature big names like Mick Jagger, Travis Scott, and Stromae, but “Change Your Mind” feels more calm and emotional. It adds a new layer to the whole project.
Why Fans Are Excited
• It’s a whole new experience, afro-fusion meets country vibes
• The visuals are simple, soft yet strong
• Burna Boy is pushing boundaries again
• Shaboozey’s rising fame adds something fresh
Final Thoughts
If the full song is anything like the teaser, Burna and Shaboozey are about to drop a hit. It’s the type of track that’s chill but catchy — the kind that sticks in your head the more you listen. Burna Boy is once again proving that he’s not afraid to try new things. And Shaboozey? He’s bringing a new wave with him.
