Kobi Onyame “Imminence (Only Matter Of Time O)”

Watch The Video For Kobi Onyame’s “Imminence (Only Matter Of Time O)”

Kobi Onyame‘s music could never sit right with the bland visuals, or even the typical hip-hop fare. The UK-based Ghanaian rapper’s music is uplifting and colourful, and a tedious video of him in a car or surrounded by scantily clad girls was never going to cut it and his most recent video is a solid explanation of why. Directed by Bright Asare, Onyame’s video for “Imminence (Only A Matter Of Time O)” was shot largely on location in Accra, Ghana, and the end result is a vibrant spectacle that draws heavily on African culture—​both sonically and visually. In fact, it’s a deft crossover between traditional hip-hop and Ghanian rhythms, bridging the gap without feeling forced or contrived. The single is being released on July 5, but for now, enjoy the well-shot visuals up top.
