'I go chop your dollar" -The Stanley Okorie interview

  • In what perhaps is Stanley's most popular (or notorious) work, 'I go chop your dollar' is still considered by many to be the #1 soundtrack of the classic movies from Nollywood (Nigerian movie industry). This song was featured in the movie 'The Master' in which Nkem Owoh (Osuoffia) plays a scammer.
    The video offers a glimpse into the making of the song. Stanley also explains that the song is simply a caricature of the '419' business and not a song in support of advance fee fraud.
    'I go chop your dollar' was written, sung and produced by Stanley Okorie, (co-produced by Murphy Anawana) but visually performed by Nkem Owoh.
    The music video was originally published and distributed by KAS-VID Music international who also published other songs visually performed by Nkem Owoh such as 'Agreement', 'Susana' and 'Know me when am poor' all written and produced by Stanley Okorie.
    Video re-edited for UA-cam viewing by Jon Willes.

    The problem is that people fail to read, It’s well written on the video who wrote and produce the song. But unfortunately most people were carried away by the video without paying attention to the actual song owner. Kudos to you Sir Stanley Okorie. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

    songwriting/singing for someone is not an easy job cuz you have to put yourself in the shoes of whom you are writing for/singing as, think for him in terms of choice of lyrics and vocals . This we can see is a well executed job, Stanley sang like Nkem Owoh and when you see Nkem Owoh in this video you would think she actually recorded the vocals
