Priddy Ugly and Bontle Modiselle recently got married. The couple recently shared an aftermovie of their wedding in the form of a music video for their newly-released single "Sweety Lavo."


The music video is filmed by Nkululeko Armsdeal Lebambo of CideFX Films, who has worked with both Priddy Ugly as a solo act and alongside Bontle as the duo Rick Jade.

Rick Jade said this about the video:

"We wanted to showcase our tradition to educate the audience on the cultural background of what takes place in a South African Traditional wedding. A wedding in the South African essence is not just a union between bride and groom, it is a union of families, a union of cultures and traditions, a marrying of spiritual ancestors and forefathers. We wanted to showcase certain aspects of how the families engage, the gifting ceremony between the families & show beautiful marrying of modern and traditional Sesotho attire. Ultimately we wanted to share our joy with our audience & make them feel like they were present."

"Sweety Lavo" follows the duo's full-length project D.N.A (Da New Africa), which was centered on the couple celebrating their 10-year union and their pregnancy.
