Da L.E.S, shot the video for his new single P.A.I.D., along with AKA and Nigerian artist, Burna Boy, recently, following hot on the heels of the trio’s collaboration on the hit All Eyes on Me. Just back from Mauritius, DA L.E.S. is currently in studio finishing work on his album, nOrth gOd, the follow-up to Mandela Money. Produced by VAM and directed by Seasan Ogunro – well known for his work with Nigerian Hip Hop stars D’Banj, Wande Coal, Don Jazzy, Davido and Wiz Kid – this will be the first time the respected Nigerian director has worked with a South African artist. Ogunro’s most recent work features Davido with US rapper Meek Mill, to be dropped internationally in the next month.
“The inspiration behind P.A.I.D is the luxury lifestyle we all aspire to, as well as seizing the moment to celebrate what we have achieved through hard work. Every individual featured on the record has achieved massive success and is still setting higher goals to do more,” says Da L.E.S.
