Afropop songster SHIRAZEE enlist SAINt JHN for an uptempo ballad with premiering new JUJU video.
With a wide-ranging catalog that entails composer credits for the likes of Ty Dolla $ign, Kiesza, Twista and Afrojack to name a few, the Benin native (SHIRAZEE) vaunts a sense of enchantment that augments his covet for sensual pleasure.
Recent Soul Train Award recipient, SAINt JHN, embraces this distinctive allure for sorcery by offering a harmonious guest-verse that affirms fatal attraction and transcends infatuation.
Benin (commonly referred to as the slave coast) is the birthplace of Voodoo, which translates to Tiara Ma’Rei‘s creative direction in choosing to showcase New Orleans’ historical context throughout the extent of the video. With having the two remote regions correlate in lieu of the slave trade during the 18th century, Voodoo was one of the many practices that transferred over with enslaved people.
JUJU manages to encapsulate the very essence of witchcraft while simultaneously providing a modernized twist on what being besotted with someone can lead to, a flair for clear-cut whispers in the wind that reiterate ‘You juju, you juju, you juju my body‘ in the distance.
