Sung in his native tongue, for the most part, the video is a powerful message of unity, hope, and strength with themes of mental slavery – a state of mind that Stone breaks free from in order to live a fuller, happier life.
Translated as “I’m Alive” in English, the video for ‘La Gba Gbe’ was directed by award-winning visual artist REX and shot in Stonebwoy’s birthplace of Anloga. It begins with a massacre to symbolize the struggle and societal constraints people face, then switches between Stone fighting his demons and liberation. It ends with the fruit falling from the trees and lighting a fire to illustrate “when all seems lost and gone, there is still hope”.
