Ever since Idols West Africa, Omawumi has had a very special place in the hearts of the entire Bella Naija team. Her drive, attitude and pure talent is set to propel her to the position of Nigeria’s premier contemporary female musician. Since the days of Onyeka Onwenu, Esse Agesse & Christy Essien-Igbokwe, we have been eagerly anticipating the next big female superstar and many bets are on Omawumi. Check out the video for her new single – ‘In the Music’. It was directed by Clarence Peters and shot in LTV Studios, Ikeja, Lagos. We love it!
Amazing when I stumble across blogs in Africa. Way to go guys – keep up the blogging
Congrats Omawumi on pulling this of… your set for the top.
Clarence Peters has done it again… Nice one Sir
I just love what this girl is doing. So authentic. What a star!
The video’s cool. They should’ve tightened up the choreography a bit more.
These unruly lot sha…lol. See promotion.
Nice!
ahhhhhhhhhhhh I ABSOLUTELY LUV THIS SONG AND VIDEO…oga o….c concept!!! well done 2 Omawumi and her crew 4 giving us proper quality music and video 🙂
OMOWUNMI WELDONE……………….PLS WHERE IS TIMI? WE A AWAITING 4 HIM…………THEY A BOTH GIFTED.
nice song…soundz so ‘south africanish’
Nice, it does sound very ‘south africanish’- it’s a good thing though, it’ll expand her audience
I can’t see where to here the song…please help me someone….
ahn ahn! this is really nice, i like the unrulies bit at the end. W.A Idol really uncovered major talent, hope she waxes stronger and stronger.
love the message of the music, the SA – sound is fine. seems like a song that will be talked about for a long time to come – generations. Well done!
Omawunmi lost to timi by hair’s breath, he doesnt deserve it, now this is the true winner, she is exceedingly gifted and talented, wish had voted for her instead of timi, who has allowed fame gotten into his head and cant still get his bearings. Those waiting for timi should keep waiting.
Omawumi’s vocals are flawless. Beautiful work! Ladies, let’s support our own! =)
i love her yellow ankara dress and shoes…me want
love her video!!really done in LTV studio..at least she no go south africa to shoot video!!nice
Feeling That!!! Omawunmi nice tune.!! Got that SA sound going on there but WELLDONE steady vocals great sound!… Thats what i’m talkin about quality!
a bit of southafrican flavor, mjb, beyonce, diana ross..me like!
yeah the blue shoes……………
Her outfit is popping. She should be featured in the “Look,” for real.
I’m still in awe of these Unrulies…Can someone feature me in their video? Timi?????
she’s a rili strong,was actually at d video shoot and was not ready stop, until d director says so………she is gd, n i op she mkes ril big
warri!!!we no de ever carry last.omawumi was my classmate in secondary school.who the hell’s gonna say i ain’t proud of her?men i am o!!overproud sef.
nice song and video but it doesnt have that ” naija thing” about it, sounds wayyyyyyyyyyyy too south african for me.
very nice vocals and intersting video
i like! not ur typical naija music…i can hear the SA influence – all the same ,LOVE IT!!
Saw her performance on Moments with Mo a while back. Divalicious!
i totally agree with you…but still nice sha!
Yvonne chaka chaka definately reincarnated in this song….even the video has an 80’s feel to it!
i like! am excited!!!! will definately be looking out for her…spotted some unrulies making an appearance…alright!
09 commeth…
Heck yes! That’s the vibe! It has that Brenda Fassie feel! Pretty cool vid too!
I can’t believe I’d never heard of Omawumi till today, she’s really good! Girl has got a voice on her, for real. I admit I was a little skeptical when I saw that she was a talentshow ‘by-product’ but I’m glad I watched the video. Like everyone else said, I love the whole Brenda Fassie (RIP) feel. And this just goes to show that you don’t have to fly out of the motherland to make a good video, this was way better than all the poorly produced, overtly sexual kakk that our artistes have been delivering lately. Big up LTV Studios, stellar job Omawumi!
OMG they are Great! I was a bit specticule
but they are wonderful. i disagree with them sounding s. Africa.
even if they do, who cares they Africa is Africa no one can tell
other than Africans. plus its a song that transends all races or ethnic groups.
A wonderful title – I love the song – it has everything it needs for a summer hit (especially in Europe) – I hope that you know the right people. But hasten you – the summer is near! Congratulations
is it me but this sound like some south african song, esp the beginning. love it though. I really like her and i really wanted her to win idols at the time, but anyhoo she’s still doin well.
