This is the 7th video off the #EMEAlbum.. the "Empire Mates State of
Mind". Released in 2012, the album has churned out hit song after hit
song, and epic video after epic video. Now however, the EME All stars
take a break from their more uptempo feel-good songs, to address the
situation in their home country, Nigeria. Teaming up with the
International Republican Institute (I.R.I) and the Nigerian Leadership
Initiative (NLI), the "Change" clip, sees the EME team speaking on the
problems in Nigeria, and attempting to inspire young Nigerians to be a
part of the change they seek in their country.
Directed by Clarence
Peters, the video features each member of EME speaking their minds, and
it also features footage from some of the incidents that occurred in
Nigeria in 2012. The video for "Change" sets the tone for the much
larger and more in-depth Documentary "#Dream4Naija" which was directed
by Ray McNulty of MTA, and funded by IRI. The documentary (which will be
aired on TV Stations across Africa and online on youtube) also seeks to
inspire young Nigerians and Africans to get involved and be a part of
the change they seek.
Hope you are inspired by watching the clip. Change is inevitable. The message to young people is simple: Be a part of the change you want to see. And to the leaders: Be a part of the Change, or get changed yourself.
