Popular comedian, Basketmouth has cried out over the high cost of music video production in Nigeria.

He said: “The visual we have for my song ‘Party’ with Peruzzi is not an official video.”

“It’s just like a holdup because I did not know that the economy has hit us that bad.”

“2 years ago, I used to make videos for 7 – 7.5 million Naira. Now, it is 27 – 30 million Naira.”

“I’m an Igbo man so the first thing I thought about was, ‘Okay Bright, if you’re spending N25m on visuals, it’s for uptick, right? Then do a holdup video, do something for uptick as well.”
