In a recent interview on the “Zero Condition Podcast,” famous Nigerian music director and cinematographer ThankGod Omori Smith, popularly known as TG Omori or Boy Director, shed light on the reasons behind his decision to cease collaboration with singer Asake.
The duo had previously worked together on several music videos, including the hit track “Organize” in 2022.
During the podcast interview, TG Omori addressed his professional relationship with Asake and the circumstances surrounding their decision to part ways.
Speaking on his business deal with Asake, TG in an interview on Zero condition podcast, emphasized that Olamide, the musician and CEO of YBNL record label, believes in giving people opportunities, and it would be unjust to hold that against him.
“Even husband and wife dey divorce, people do have a break. I think we have done enough, we have done like 12 videos. We are still very cool. You know it is a business and at the end of the day, you have to respect your client’s decisions.
“I like when artistes have the freedom to try out new things. I don’t want because we are guys you must shoot with me. I don’t know why that happened.
“To me it is crazy love because me and YBNL are forever. And you know how me and Olamide ‘go like way back’, and Olamide is a type that makes sure that everybody eats. And before I came, he was working with other directors and he gave me the opportunity to also do my thing.
“So he’s working with a very creative guy now. A very good guy that’s doing well too. That’s Olamide for you. And if I take that personal, then I have messed up.”
