"PLACE FOR YOU AND I" (2020)
Music Video for Senegalese Singer Sidibe.
"Place for You and I" explores relationship idealization, soul connections, and heartbreak romanticism. The video contemplates the lofty aspirations of romantic love as Sidibe sings about the distinct singular experience of being in a committed relationship while feeling magnetically, spiritually, and physically connected to another person—a stranger trapped inside a painting
Sidibe's evocative melodies serve as the catalyst for a narrative that navigates the expansive landscapes of romantic love.
"Sidibe" is an independent artist, five octave vocalist, songwriter and guitarist with roots in Louisiana and Senegal. The singular tones and vibrations of her voice have led to descriptions that include other-worldly and ethereal. Her music defies genres as she effortlessly weaves classic and contemporary elements into her romantic musings. Sidibe's 2016 EP You Got the Luck garnered the attention of Prince who selected her song “I’m Only Dreaming” for his personally curated Purple Pick of the Week playlist. As it turns out, this was Prince’s last co-sign before his departure."
