Koffee and Buju Banton release music video for remix of ‘Pressure’
Almost a month after reggae artiste Buju Banton was featured on the remix of Koffee’s Pressure, the two have released a music video.
Koffee and Buju Banton pose during the Pressure music video.
The visuals
for the track became available on YouTube on Tuesday, October 20.
In the music
video, several timely issues were highlighted. Viewers saw clips from Black Lives
Matter protests in the United States, Canada, England, Denmark, Ireland and
Holland.
There was also
a scene with an elderly man, seemingly locked away from his family because of
the COVID-19 pandemic.
In between clips
of Buju and Koffee singing on the steps of an old house and in an open field,
there were also ordinary Jamaicans who simply looked sad. But in the end,
things got better and some of them were laughing and dancing at a party.
Just like
when the remix was released on September 25, listeners showed appreciation for
the music video.
“This and
lockdown are the greatest songs to come out this year! Tek win,” one person commented
on Koffee’s Instagram page.
