SA rapper, Nadia Nakai gives her best to her album project and it’s glaring on the latest music video she dropped few days ago titled, Amai.

The rap star gets a sculpture of herself while still alive in the music video.

Speaking with OkayAfrica, Nadia said: “The song is literally about how your family molds you into becoming a grown person. So, when they’re putting the mold on me, that is forming me, and that’s what my family has done for me.”

Revered director TAKEZITO who’s behind the visuals, tells OkayAfrica:

“The statue was an idea by my muse and art director on the project Sandile Mhlongo where he wanted to immortalize Nadia in this moment of her debut album. I loved the idea of immortalizing her and capturing her essence. It really was a very poetic and magnetic idea. Sanza enlisted Lazi Mathebula to create the artwork and Lazi was assisted by Mashilo Setlamorago.”
