When songs are released, it is essential that a visual that would narrate the intention of the song be released as well.
These videos help to get the listeners even closer to the songs and possibly help to turn them to be a fan of the songs. That is why when musicians look towards shooting a video for any of their songs, they tend to look for the best hands for the job. They always make sure the best of the best are consulted as they want their visuals to be top-notch and accorded huge, positive commendations by the viewers.
In 2019, many of the video directors in the Nigerian music industry have delivered crisp, top-notch videos for music artistes in the music year.

Of those few, we have narrowed down 3 out of them who we consider to be the best video directors of 2019. They have been the most sought-after and the directors with the most creative work. Check below:
TG Omori – This director is the newest kid on block as far as music-video directing is concerned in Nigeria. He came into full limelight in 2019 even though he has been around since 2016.

Meji Alabi – This is definitely the most luxurious and expensive video director we have in the Nigerian music industry currently. Meji really doesn’t shoot too many music videos and this probably is because he is an elite video director. The acts that afford him in the industry are only the superstars. Davido, Wizkid, Burna Boy, Tiwa Savage are mostly the only consistent patrons Meji has in the Nigerian music industry. Meji has shot some really fantastic videos in 2019 that definitely would be contenders for video of the year at award ceremonies that would emerge. He shot Davido’s “Risky,” Tiwa savage’s “49-99,” American rapper; Cassanova’s “2am” featuring Davido and Tory Lanez, and these videos are on a different class. What sets Meji apart from other video directors we have in the music industry is his ability to use his videos to narrate which gets you stuck all through till the end.
