NEW VIDEO: Banky W - Jasi

Empire Mates Entertainment is proud to present the official video for Banky W's "Jasi". The song was produced by MasterKraft, and features additional background vocals by EME starlet Niyola. The hilarious clip was shot in Lagos, Nigeria and London. 

"Jasi" highlights Banky W's playfulness AND versatility. Very few artistes worldwide are able to change styles as effortlessly as Mr W can... and here we see him temporarily set aside his "King of Afro-R&B" crown to pull off this Afrobeats/Afropop club banger, and it works quite well. The video also shows his acting skills as Banky plays more than one role, in the same scene, in the vein of an Eddie Murphy or Tyler Perry. 

Shot by Uber Director Sesan, the video is quite hilarious and features cameos from MasterKraft, and Lynxxx... and we hope you have as much fun watching it, as we did filming it. Here's to Africa's most versatile Artist, Banky W.

NEW MUSIC: Banky W - Jasi

With songs like "Yes/No" and "Strong Ting", Banky W has cemented his place as the King of African R&B. This time though, we find on "Jasi" that he switches gears and changes styles entirely AND effortlessly by putting out what many would call an Afropop song... one that we would not expect from the R&B maestro, but one that works very well, nonetheless. It's playful and funny, sexy and seductive all at once. Mr W fully intends to continue in the Afro-R&B lane, but time and again, we see him successfully experimenting with other genres (most notably Rap & now Afropop), proving that true artists can think, and express... "outside the box".  

From R&B... to Rap... to Commercial Afrobeats/Afropop... we're finding out that there's little Banky W isn't capable of doing, and doing very well. He is arguably, THE most versatile Artiste on the African Continent. Produced by hitmaker extraordinaire and longtime collaborator MasterKraft, enjoy "Jasi" as you listen.
