Ibeyi – “Stranger / Lover” Video
Lisa-Kaindé Diaz and Naomi Diaz are the twin daughters of Buena Vista Social Club percussionist Anga Díaz, and together, they make music as Ibeyi. The duo’s self-titled debut, sung in both English and Yoruba, is a multi-tiered fusion of electronic beats, hip-hop vocal stylings, and Yorùbán music. Jezebel debuted Ibeyi’s new video for the song “Stranger/Lover,” whose lyrics navigates a complex relationship — the volatile, on-again-off-again kind. In the clip, the sisters are shaken and tussled by disembodied hands; watch below.
Ibeyi is out now via XL.
