“‘Empty Grave’ by Dr Pushkin & B-Wayne Wins Big in Los Angeles
In a triumphant moment for Ghanaian music and storytelling, Dr Pushkin and B-Wayne have clinched the Best African Music Video award at the prestigious Los Angeles Movie and Music Video Awards with their powerful visual masterpiece, “Empty Grave.”
Released officially on December 26, 2024, and amassing over 640,000 views on YouTube, Empty Grave is more than just a song—it’s a spiritual charge, an anthem for the broken, and a sermon for the strong. With lyrics echoing determination and visuals that challenge perception, this collaborative project continues to push boundaries while holding tightly to African identity and universal truths.
Directed by Timtooni Yakubu, the video is a bold, cinematic journey into the depths of perseverance, purpose, and unshakable belief in one’s mission. The imagery, paired with Dr Pushkin’s poetic delivery and B-Wayne’s emotional depth, creates an atmosphere that’s both thought-provoking and soul-stirring.
“The enemies can come as a cavalry, but they won’t win,” the lyrics resound. Empty Grave isn’t just a song—it’s a revelation. A reminder that no matter how many write your ending, only you decide when the story stops.
Hailing from the Upper East Region of Ghana, Dr Pushkin and B-Wayne are rewriting the narrative of northern creatives, taking their sound and message to a global stage. Their victory at the IMDb-qualifying Los Angeles awards is a win not only for themselves but for every African creative striving to be heard beyond borders.
As they put it best: “Empty Grave is the sermon. Listen to the gospel, and your life will never be the same.”
