On Monday we brought you the top 5 Naija songs dropped in August.
As you can imagine, the ingenuity in song and video productions are not always the same. Some songs are accompanied by beautiful visuals while some lack in the visuals what they make up for in their audios. Some artistes, undoubtedly ace the two.
Below are the top 5 Naija music videos that graced our screens during the month of August:
1. ONE TROUSER BY FALZ

The video celebrates his neighbourhood Ebute Metta, and every other ghetto or slum in Lagos where men and women of calibre have defied the odds and made lemonades out of the melons life threw at them.
Abule reminds one of the early days of Naija music when Ajegunle came out strong. We consider it a deep reflection of a quintessential Lagos ghetto party. It cannot be replicated else where.
