It’s coming from the Senegal River. It’s already moving the platforms. Released on August 20, 2022 on the YouTube pages of the two artists, King P Beatz and MNO Dia, their clip “Nokoss Mbeuguel” has already recorded several thousand views and garnered hundreds of likes. A colorful clip finely worked in a local style with stunning images. You guessed it, it’s about love!
“I’m tired of thilii” (I’m tired of this), it is with this cult phrase that the singer but also youtubeur and Instagramers tiktokeur Ousmane Dia alias MNO Dia has managed to retain his followers or fans on social networks.
Today on holiday in Senegal, he unveiled the video of his song “Nokoss Mbeuguel”. This is not the first time that the singer has made a production, in the past he had made a triad of songs called “sama yone”, “J’en assez thi lii” “Talk to me” but also “Dafa wara nekh”. The song that marked his musical production was evidently the one where he paid tribute to the late Thione Seck entitled “Balago”.
Full of talent, MNO Dia has good days ahead of him. He is one of those talented young people who now abound everywhere in the Senegalese and even African musical spheres. Not a week goes by without young Senegalese singers making a hit on streaming platforms. And at the rate they are going, they risk beating their Nigerian brothers. Ivorian coupe-décalé! Let’s not talk about it. Since the tragic death of their torchbearer Arafat DJ, they have deserted the musical sphere. When two talented singers collaborate, it necessarily gives interesting notes for the happiness of music lovers in for a royal “Nokoss” (royal seasoning), there is only “Nokoss Mbeuguel” left.
The video opens with an elegant woman, dressed in a rich bazin, who looks good in front of a large mirror in a slum that adjoins a beautiful building. The attractive contrast (lofty building/ bidonvelle) that gives relief and a certain charm to the clip. Two young men, dressed similarly with big boubous, come out of the barrack and sketch a few steps of dances, the rhythm is given! In a colourful mix with mbalax sauce, MNO Dia and King P Beatz confirm all the good we thought of them: nuggets.
Ousmane Dia, aka MNO Dia, was born on September 15, 1986. He dropped out of school in grade 4 and went into the perfume business. He is abandoning that other activity. The third activity will be the right one. When he launches in 2020 in music with “Dafa Wara Nekh”, it is the confirmation that his passion has just been born. But a question that bothers us: We wonder where he could get these initials of superhero of Marvel. After searching the net, I came across the pink pole. He has three children. We learn that – MNO – these are the first letters of the names of his children that he juxtaposed. We wait to see what the next letter will be.
“Nokoss Mbeuguel”, this clip is a combination of elegance and sobriety with Senegalese sauce. It shows that with talent and fair arrangements, you can make a video that pleases. In the end, it sounds like love, feelings of the heart, peace of soul and body.
