Maceo Frost directs Zigidi, an explosive music video celebrating the release of BIJI’s debut album. Produced by Studio BIJI, New-Land, Diplomats, Knucklehead, and BWGTBLD.
BIJI is an audiovisual celebration of love, freedom and creativity in Kurdish created by artist Robin Nazari and Maceo Frost.
“BIJI is music and visuals for a contemporary audience, mixing Kurdish heritage with afrobeat, hip hop, house and more; showing the beauty and sides of the Middle East that are not normally portrayed in media and as mentioned above, celebrates freedom and love. The Kurdish and affiliated diasporas are sizable with 45 million Kurds across the world, and also with strong ties to Turkish and other communities – where the released singles have been met with praise and appreciation – and it’s been amazing to see people come together and enjoy this.” – Maceo Frost
