Early B and Jack Parow like “Potte” in new music video!

POTTE, the acclaimed Hip Hop artist from Port Elizabeth, Early B’s latest humoristic hit – featuring award-winning rap legend Jack Parow and producer Justin Vega – has already made big waves in the music industry. Now, the trio is back with a fun, tongue-in-cheek music video to celebrate the single’s success as well as the holiday season.

The video, which was filmed by director Gerhard van Rooyen in Cape Town, is basically a visualisation of the lyrics they sing about in the song. “Jack Parow, Justin Vega and I are the main characters in the video. The aim was to introduce the PE saying ‘POTTE’ and its meaning (a girl with a great body) to the public. The message is also clear that our characters are quite fond of POTTE,” shares Early B about the concept behind the video. “The video also include appearances by some beautiful models and Gerhard made the necessary adjustments to make my idea look great on screen. It was a good team effort.”

The video has already taken over social media. Watch it here:

“It is actually just a fun song. I like to imitate people and PE, when guys see a girls with a great body, they say it exactly like I sing it in the chorus: ‘Daai kind het potte, whuh’. It has become such a popular saying in the area that even children use it,” explains B. “I wanted to do something light and refreshing with the awesome beat that Justin created. Everyone needs to cut lose sometimes and have a good laugh. There are very serious songs on my new album and we needed to establish an equilibrium by adding some more upbeat tracks,” he adds.
