Truth be told I initially loved the new skelewu video until I found that the video concept wasn’t original! Do you guys remember the Pop duo LMFAO‘s 2011′s ‘Party rock anthem‘ video which starts with RedFoo and SkyBlu
waking up from a coma in the hospital and hitting the streets to notice
the town has been deserted. On getting on the road, someone
comes to warn them about a song that has caused a frenzy in the town,
then a bunch of crazy/zombie dancers get close to them and start dancing, LMFAO
later join the dance – that’s just how the new Skelewu rolls. You can watch the LMFAO video HERE and compare with Davido’s new skelewu video HERE.

In the meantime, ‘Davido’ has come under harsh criticisms for his new music video entitled ‘Skelewu’.
You will recall that the first video – shot by music director Sesan –
was released last week but following the negative reviews it got from
fans, Davido claimed it was a leaked version and opted to shoot video –
directed by Moe Musa.
Well fans claim the new Skelewu video directed by Moe Musa is “far worse than Sesan’s video”.
“The guy (Davido) has shown that he’s a reckless spender” one fan on Nairaland forum said
“To me, the second version of ‘Skelewu” is nonsense,” another on the same plaform said.
Reacting to all the negative comments, Music director Moe Musa tweeted thus:
