Mobi Dixon premiers hot new music video for his latest single which is fast blazing up the national radio charts – Visa featuring Nichume, DJ Tira and Kwesta on VEVO. What makes Visa stand apart is the way in which Mobi Dixon fuses Kwaito, Jazz, Tribal Soul, Hip Hop and break beats together. For Mobi Dixon, this song is about experimenting with different sounds and this makes it different from anything else he has ever done, ambitiously, he wanted to achieve the same with the visuals.
“I wanted to reflect the music visually by combining vintage and new school flavours together on the music video to depict the blending of genres in the song”, says Mobi Dixon
Mobi Dixon says, “ The music video is directed by Omen The Chef who did a great job on my previous music video for Bhutiza, which is why I wanted to work with him again to get the same quality. Omen also co-produced the song with me so he has a great understanding of the entire concept of the song.”
While on set, Mobi Dixon pinpoints the moment the video shoot started coming together for him noting, “…it was after Kwesta, Nichuma and DJ Tira arrived on set shortly after we got the red 1982 Ferrari 308 from Creative Rides on to a well-lit modern warehouse that I knew we were onto something”.

Mobi explains, “The literal meaning of the song Visa – in Xhosa means to make someone taste or feel something – the figurative meaning allows for the diverse taste of the elements in my music to make you feel all sorts of ways in your mind, body and soul”.
Visa is the first single off Mobi Dixon’s upcoming album titled 10 STEPS FORWARD which sees him working with a host of high profile vocalists such as Nokwazi, Shekhinah, Tamara Dey, J Something and Samthing Soweto – including some new kids on the block Dladla Mshunqisi, Lungisa Xhamela and Nia Pearl. The album 10 STEPS FORWARD is set for release on 24 August 2018.
