Two days after dropping his highly anticipated new album, Nowhere Cool, M.anifest releases the video for Cupid’s Crooked Bow featuring South African vocalist Nomisupasta.

The song which speaks on the imperfect nature of “perfect” love and the difficulties that come with dating an African rapper as Mani relates tales of crazy tour bus antics, random nudes and guilt trips.

The video was directed by Muti films who meld images captured in Accra Ghana and studio visuals of Nomisupasta as she recites the song’s chorus.
