This is the 7th video off the #EMEAlbum.. the
"Empire Mates State of Mind". Released in 2012, the album has churned
out hit song after hit song, and epic video after epic video. Now however, the
EME All stars take a break from their more uptempo feel-good songs, to address
the situation in their home country, Nigeria. Teaming up with the International
Republican Institute (I.R.I), McNally Temple Associates (MTA) and the Nigerian
Leadership Initiative (NLI), the "Change" clip, sees the EME team
speaking on the problems in Nigeria, and attempting to inspire young Nigerians
to be a part of the change they seek in their country.
Directed by Clarence Peters, the video features
each member of EME speaking their minds, and it also features footage from some
of the incidents that occurred in Nigeria in 2012. The video for
"Change" sets the tone for the much larger and more in-depth
Documentary "#Dream4Naija" which was directed by Ray McNally of MTA,
and funded by IRI and USAID. The documentary (which will be aired on TV
Stations across Africa and online on youtube) also seeks to inspire young
Nigerians and Africans to get involved and be a part of the change they seek.
Hope you are inspired by watching the clip. Change
is inevitable. Be a part of the change, or get changed yourself.
