Global music icons Mr Eazi and Angélique Kidjo Reconnect in Paris for ‘Òròkórò’ Video

Grammy-winning afrobeats icon Mr Eazi and global music legend (5-time Grammy winner) Angélique Kidjo are releasing a new video for their ‘Òròkórò’ collaboration this Friday, and it is a glorious affair, which I believe you’ll enjoy –

‘Òròkórò’ is the next single from Mr Eazi’s acclaimed music-and-arts fusion project ‘The Evil Genius’, which has been championed by The New York Times, Billboard, Rolling Stone, The FADER, Complex, Music Week, CNN, and The Guardian, among others.

Filmed between Paris and Forêt de Fontainebleau, the video is a deep dive into both artists’ cultural richness and spirituality. It celebrates West African heritage, paying tribute to the spiritual and historical significance of Angélique Kidjo’s birthplace in Benin.

The video delivers a spiritual musical journey of song and dance, with Eazi and Kidjo at their magnetic and purposeful best performing largely in their native Yoruba language, as they elevate their message of thanksgiving and gratitude for divine blessings.
