Jerrilyn Plans Big

Jerrilyn Mubah, who dropped two singles recently, has concluded plans to release her music video.

The video, scheduled for July, would be shot in Lagos, Nigeria and according to the petite singer, all arrangements are in top gear.

“I am working really hard towards making the Mr. DJ video a reality. We are bringing in new equipment into the country that would be used for the video and we intend to work with one of the best hands here in Nigeria,” said an excited Jerrilyn.

She said the video has an exciting concept involving a lot of professional dancers. “We are shooting in over 10 different locations over a period of one month. We have exciting props and special effects planned for the video,” she said.

Badex, a fast-rising director, just back from Singapore with an award from Cannes Film Festival, would be directing the video.

Jerrilyn, a Liberian, is one of the few who have chosen to live above the wreck of the civil war and is, against all odds, striding towards stardom and a successful music career.

Her debut album titled Dancing on top of the World would be released before the end of this year, almost four years after her first public appearance in 2007. Jerrilyn’s two singles Molejo and Mr. DJ are enjoying airtime across radio stations in Nigeria. She says she hopes to entertain her fans with the upcoming video which would hit television stations across Nigeria next month.
