The Channel O “Top 10 Most” series continues with a countdown/list of Africa’s “Most visionary Music Directors”.
“It has been a long journey for the music video. Nowadays, we look forward to a new P Square or D‘Banj video almost as much as we look forward to their new songs, but it took decades for the form to earn any respectability and reach the level of technical maturity. Having started out as better-than-nothing replacements for live performances, music videos were just promotional tools before they got serious about artistic content. But now, with a few decades of history and lore, music videos feel like a full-fledged industry of their own. With this list, Channel O celebrates the medium’s pantheon with 10 of its most visionary African directors.
