Rising Zimdancehall artists, Poptain and Anita Jaxson have released a single titled "More." It premiered on 20 June 2021. The music video is about two people expressing their love for each other.
Various ways show that the music video is fascinating.
The music video was shot using an iPhone
Initially, Poptain and Anita Jaxson were supposed to attend a Kariba show. However, due to the Covid 19 pandemic, it did not happen. Instead of feeling sorry for themselves, they decided to release a music video using an iPhone. Poptain said:
"After our Kariba show didn't happen the team and I were taking some photos and then decided to switch it up and record a video, We had recorded the demo before with Leekay Di Man so it made sense to shoot a small video. A few weeks later Anita Jaxson and I decided we just wanted to put it out now for the people to enjoy."
It makes it fascinating because there is so much simplicity in the music video. Therefore, it was a blessing in disguise
Speculations about them having a romantic relationship.
According to other sources on the internet, Anita Jaxson confirmed that they are dating. Anita Jaxson said they decided to make their love official on their Kariba trip in an Instagram live video. Although they confirmed the dating rumours, I do not believe they are dating. I believe it is a marketing strategy to promote their single. It has been trending since it was released. I said what I said lol.
The music video is simple and straight to the point
At the start of the music video, there is a written message that says: "Let's just say things don't always go as planned. After our Kariba event went south :-( we decided to make the best of the situation. Using a mirror and a phone." From the onset, it lets the listeners know that despite the Kariba event going south, they still found inspiration to make music. Therefore, it highlights their passion for being music artists to the extent they missed breakfast to make the music video. It makes the music video fascinating.
Since the music video took place in Kariba, the visuals are on point. However, what makes it fascinating is the lyrics especially when they go back and forth. For instance, they said :
Anita Jaxson: You go say you want more, more
Poptain: You go say you want more, more
The back-and-forth highlights the chemistry and raw talent. Moreover, there is a high pitch where they both say, "You go say you want more, more." It further highlights the love chemistry they have for each other. The music video, shows both of them continuing to exchange romantic words with each other.
In a nutshell, I loved the concept of using an iPhone to shoot a music video. It shows creativity. Moreover, I liked the simplicity of the lyrics especially when they go back and forth exchanging romantic words. I also liked the visuals. However, my only complaint is they claim they are dating after fans speculated that they are dating. I still do not believe they are dating. Therefore I rate the song around 8.5/10.
