On July 9, 2023, Sarz released the music video of Jam One Kele. The single is off Memories That Last Forever 2 (MTLF2). The single Jam One Kele features singer-songwriters Gimba, MillyMay_Pod and Fxrtune.

Hol’up. What’s MTLF 2?

Memories That Last Forever 2 is a fifteen-track follow-up project to the well-received first volume that came out in 2020. MTLF 2 features the students of the third set of The Sarz Academy; producers and singer-songwriters like Gimba, Syntiat, Pj Star, Charmaine ‘L A and Perfext, and executively produced by Sarz. The compilation boasts of other singles like Body Wicked and Good To Me, and it’s out now and streaming on all platforms.

Jam One Kele: the Party

Nigerian cinematographer Perliks directed and shot the music video. In it, a house party runs from evening till dawn, and these are our favourite things about it.

The “agbado era” reminder

The first scene captures a guy’s encounter with a corn seller, to subtly remind us that no matter how much fun you’re looking for, it’s the agbado era. Everything is now cash and carry; no freebies.

Hot babes and guys everywhere

The house stayed packed with hot babes and guys, talking, drinking, smoking and grinding bodies together. As Gimba sings about a kele (or baddie) he met at a party the night before, everyone’s just moving around, having fun.

Herbal drinks available

Fxrtune appears next to brag about the large sum he spends with his guys in the club. While this is happening, a young local herbal drinks seller climbs the stairs to serve people.

At a Gen-Z party? The only explanation is that some fornication is about to go down, and we’re here for it.

The energy gods

When you see guys with high energy at a party, you know it’s a hit. 

Nothing comes free here

MillyMay_Pod smoothly entered the second verse to drop his own gist about a babe he liked at the party. But why is there a POS transaction in this scene? What are they buying and selling?

A guy in his underwear?

This grown male adult was caught in nothing but a pair of boxer briefs, rocking a babe at a public function. What outrageous level of konji is this? 

The fun and stress-free vibes

The party goes on smoothly, and everyone is having an amazing time, looking free and comfortable despite the agbado reminder. Meanwhile, the three singers spend the rest of the beat repeating how they jammed one “kele”, and she gave them great vibes. 

The video ends as the party ends and morning comes. The guests begin to wake up and leave, but the artists still won’t stop going on about the “kele” they met. 

The olodo guys are so mesmerised, they forget to ask the babes for their numbers. But at least, they sang well and had fun. That’s all that matters.

Memories That Last Forever 2 is out now on all DSPs.
