Octavian - Poison feat. Take A Daytrip, Obongjayar & Santi [Video]

Octavian_DSTNGR_2

Octavian’s visual for his latest single ‘Poison,’ is pretty impressive! It’s the level of creativity we hope to see more of across Black British music.

Teaming up with Take A Daytrip once again, along with Nigerian artists Obongjayar & Santi, Octavian’s Poison is brought to life pushing boundaries on the delivery of artistic visuals, with the use of intricate filming and clever post-production special effects. The song which depicts the narrative of women being a man’s drug, sees Octavian, Obongjayar and Santi, immersed amongst an array of women wielding their feminine powers onto the young men throughout the visual.

Check out the official music video for ‘Poison’ below and you can stream the single on Spotify also.
