It’s that magical time of the year, and Funke Akindele has unwrapped a sparkling holiday gift for us all—a festive banger titled Everybody Loves Christmas! Featuring a lineup that reads like the who’s-who of Nigerian entertainment, the song and its dazzling video are here to bring joy, laughter, and a lot of groove to your holiday playlist.
Imagine a Christmas party where Jide Kosoko plays Father Christmas, Patience Ozokwo (Mama G) gets the crowd hyped with her iconic dance moves, and Waje’s heavenly vocals carry you straight to holiday bliss. That’s exactly the vibe this video delivers!
The fun kicks off with Bisola Aiyeola crooning the nostalgic opening lines:
“Christmas, my favourite time of the year, the time of the year when the jollof is always sweeter and the chicken always bigger.”
It’s everything we love about Christmas, wrapped in sweet melody!
Nancy Isime stuns in a vibrant green outfit, belting out the soulful line, “The reason for the season is the loving and the giving…” Then there’s Funke Akindele herself, bringing the energy alongside comedienne Omotunde Adebowale (a.k.a Adaku) as they crack jokes and sing in Yoruba.
Adding to the festive cheer, Dbanj—true to his style—delivers a fiery rap while playing Santa’s helper, handing out gifts to excited children. And let’s not forget Layi Wasabi’s hilarious banter and Lateef Adedimeji’s silky vocals.
The video has fans in a frenzy, with one commenter, jenniferdavid247, declaring:
“Can this be our official Christmas song in Nigeria? Let’s make it trend every year like Mariah Carey’s Christmas anthem—this is too good!”
Another fan, lslamiyatAyantola, broke down the magic:
“Bisola’s intro is a banger, Lateef’s voice is sweet, Layi made it hilarious, Kamo is the new Zlatan, and Funke was phenomenal. In short, everyone brought their A-game. This song is E sweet paaa!”
Even the music video director, Pink, chimed in:
“We made a magical one! I hope you all love it!”
With its catchy tune, playful vibes, and heartfelt holiday spirit, Everybody Loves Christmas is set to light up every Nigerian home this season. So, grab your jollof, crank up the volume, and let Funke Akindele and her crew make your Christmas unforgettable!
