Darey – Sisi Eko [Remix] ft. Flavour N’Abania

The big-budget video shot in the heart of Lagos in May, with a cast and crew drawn mainly from Lagos and South Africa, shows Darey and Flavour taking turns in trying to woo a beautiful and elegant Lagos lady who they spot window-shopping, as they ride together in the famous Lagos traffic. Things get tense as the drama builds, with neither Darey nor Flavour willing to let go – motorists complain bitterly as both men cause traffic to further build up, but they’re so lost in the competition, that nothing would move them. Who ends up winning the heart of ‘‘Sisi Eko’’? Enjoy and download. DOWNLOAD HERE

Africa is the future, and the world will know that through our music”.

They have this flavor that’s good for the kind of music we wanted to make, and they loved the idea, the music. It was fun all the way…” After the release of his last single “Sisi Eko” (remix, featuring Flavor) in July 2011, Darey took a brief time out to handle a couple of high profile gigs – hosting popular TV musical reality show, Glo Naija Sings, Gulder Ultimate Search and Amstel Malta Showtime to name a few.
