Funke Akindele just gave us the Christmas gift we didn’t know we needed! The legendary filmmaker has dropped a music video, *Everybody Loves Christmas,* featuring an ensemble cast that feels like a buffet of Nigeria’s finest talents. We’re talking Patience Ozokwor, Jide Kosoko, D’banj, Falz, Layiwola Wasabi, Waje, Nancy Isime, and more, oh, and let’s not forget Bisola, who kicks things off with an intro so smooth, the vocals feels like honey on jollof rice.
“Everybody Loves Christmas” is more than just a song; it’s an event. Imagine all your favorite Afrobeat artists vibing on one track, laced with soulful vocals, groovy beats, and the kind of energy that makes you want to start decorating the Christmas tree in November. It’s festive, it’s fresh, and it’s so good it might just replace your classic Christmas playlist.
Now let’s talk strategy, because Funke didn’t just create a song – she’s making history. Pulling together the entire cast of “Everybody Loves Jennifer” (yes, the legends are back!) and adding some of Nigeria’s biggest music stars to the mix? Genius. Has anyone ever used a music video to hype a movie quite like this? Nope. Funke just redefined PR in Nollywood, proving that she’s not just a storyteller; she’s a trendsetter.
And let’s not ignore the vocals. Bisola’s intro alone is a showstopper – smooth, powerful, and the kind of melody that wraps around you like a warm Christmas sweater. It captures the spirit of Christmas in a way that feels deeply Nigerian yet universally festive. The harmonies, the beats, and the sheer joy radiating from every note make it impossible not to smile.
As for the movie “Everybody Loves Jennifer,”if this music video is anything to go by, we’re in for a cinematic feast. With this much star power and the queen of content herself, Funke Akindele, at the helm, the anticipation is real. Think of it as the jollof rice of holiday movies – spicy, rich, and guaranteed to bring everyone to the table. Honestly, December 25th couldn’t come fast enough.
