Watch! Phantom Steeze Explains How He Made R400 Stretch For Stimela Music Video. Nowadays rappers are convinced that what makes a successful music video is expensive alcohol, video vixens and flashy cars. What some don’t realize is that in today’s economy it is important to get value for your money and to be able to see the long-term impact of an investment no matter how big or small.
Rapper Phantom Steeze has worked with some of hip-hops biggest names, including Cassper Nyovest, Manu WorldStar, and Tumi Tladi. The rapper had a fantastic 2020 with the release of his breakout single Stimela featuring Costa Titch.
In October 2020 the rapper appeared on Freshmenmag’s Kultur Radar web series to discuss a variety of topics relating to his journey as a rapper. The Ses’fikile collaborator specifically spoke about his music video for Stimela and how he was on a strict budget for the shoot.
When asked by one of the interviewees why they would laugh if Phantom mentioned how much he spent on the music video, Phantom replied: “I used 400 bucks to shoot the video. 400 bucks to shoot Stimela bro. That’s all I had”.
Phantom began to break down how he spent the R400 on the music video production, “That R400 was for the dancers, I gave them R200 for petrol for them to come and go. And the spot that we shot at is close to my mom’s spot.” “The house that we shot at is an orphanage”.
Directed by Argentina Fargo the Stimela music video has been viewed over 200 000 times.
