January 15, 2020, marked the release of Otile Brown's new video 'The Way You Are', produced by Ilhaji.
The song, which celebrates the beauty of black women, features a bevy of black beauties and urges women against bleaching, skin lightening, and other body enhancement procedures.
Directed by Mike Lolly P, the video has received largely positive reception, with some fans pointing out that it may be an indirect diss to Otile's skin-lightening ex-lover, Vera Sidika.
During a promotional tour of the song in Tanzania, Otile Brown stated that he was never interested in Vera, further fueling speculation.
Watch 'The Way You Are' below.
