Ieye shoots video for second single
Weeks after topping major charts with her first single Mama’s Hand, Ieye, newcomer discovered by star maker Clifton ‘Specialist’ Dillon, hits the set once more to shoot the video for I Know the second single from her debut album entitled Fevergrass. In this new single, Ieye — a finalist in the 2008 Jamaica Cultural Developemnt Commission (JCDC) Popular Song Contest — demonstrates her smooth and commanding vocals while confirming her belief in the Most High. Directed by Ras Tingle from TD Films, the videos concept is abstract and incorporates the use of dance and an orchestra playing live instruments.
“As you will see the video is very clean, sophisticated and edgy, a direction which is currently used in most international videos,” Tingle explains. “It’s my second time working with Ieye and Specialist and hopefully this is just the start of even greater things. It is always a pleasure working with this team as I am able to utilise my creative skills as a director while gaining some insight and experience from the Specialist himself,” Tingle says.
Ieye is ecstatic about her new video and her journey as a new artiste.
“This is my second video and I feel great about it. I feel like I’m reaching people and places, I had a great feeling about the first video “Mama’s Hand” and I have the same feeling now, so I’m happy and I hope Jamaica and the world will embrace it,” Ieye says.
Ieye is working on other major projects this summer including another video, this time with label-mate, Italian reggae act Alborosie, who she will accompany on a five-week tour of Europe. According to her management, other singles from the Fevergrass album will be released this summer on a major label.
I know is scheduled to have its premiere on major television stations this week.
