Obongjayar 'Tinko Tinko (Don't Play Me For A Fool)' by Milo Blake
David Knight - 28th Mar 2022
Milo Blake's takes Obangjayar into an Afropop direction, with a noir twist, in the video for the pulsating Tinko Tinko (Don't Play Me For a Fool).
Obongjayar is working a nightshift at tech company OB Dream Corp - no relation to a certain repping agency - and while on a break he switches on a distinctly old-school desktop and finds a viral video that becomes his portal into a twisted mirror image of his own world.
In this alternate dimension, Obangjayar is transformed into a pop artist, performing the song, and accompanied in the same office by dancers. As the views skyrocket on the viral video, it plays on how technology and viral trends consume our lives. Eventually the lines between the digital and real world become completely blurred - and the hardware itself takes on a organic quality.
It's an intriguing showcase for the artist aka Steven Umoh, which shows how he represents an exciting new take on Afropop and Afrobeat - and also shows Milo Blake's also moving into exciting new territory as a video director.
