GOIN
BACK TO Cali
w/ ELE....Juke Gyal
The concept
for the video is that Ele, Kiprich, Roundhead, and Ninja Kid are
all on tour through the Dirty South and their bus breaks down
in the middle of nowhere. They get out and try to “signal
a plane” but the plane does not see them. They look around
and find a barn a.k.a. “Juke Joint”. As they approach...
the barn doors open, and surprise!! It is CRUNK as hell!
Everybody
head gone inna di place… Girls are dancing and Ele gets
the vibe and starts performing. Filled with Ele’s usual
antics he is all over the place… They meet up with Twista
and Young Bloodz and everybody is bumpin’, grindin’
and more importantly jukin’! Ele even brings a surprise
into the “Juke Joint” that you will have to watch
the video to see!!
The video
is real hype fittingly so for Ele, Kip, and the YoungBloodz. Twista
is pimpin’ it Chi-town style. Tenesia (choreographer from
Sean Pauls’s “Get Busy”) helped the ladies get
the latest dances from yard, along with Ele and his now lengthy
portfolio of new dances… from the Scooby Doo to Shelly Belly
and Ready, Ready!
The video
really puts a Reggae artist in a different environment rather
than the usual Dancehall scene. I think that this will help expand
the dancehall audience. The idea, conceptualized and Directed
by Gil Green, shows his creativity in doing things differently
while allowing the artist to always shine.
I think Jamaicans
will be happy to see Ele shine along with other foreign artists.
