The Nigerian artist and Beninese-French singer were captured on film amidst a vibrant, natural green landscape. The director, Thomas Leloup, infused the visuals with a palette of white, green, and yellow hues. The Yoruba term "Òròkórò" translating to "testimony" imbues the song with the meaning of being a testament to blessings and unwavering faith in a higher force. Orokoro explores a diverse musical spectrum, incorporating elements of Garage, Highlife, Afro-pop, and Ghana Bounce style.

The complete album offers a brilliantly designed and skillfully crafted sensory experience. As a component of the release strategy, Mr Eazi has been encouraging the audience to engage with the music and art through multi-sensory exhibition listening events.
