South African recording artist Cassper Nyovest has created a stir on Twitter after dropping the video for his latest single “Destiny” yesterday.
The heavily stylised video takes place in the future as featuring artist Goapele walks through an expensive, minimalist house while scrolling through holographic screens.
The scene evokes imagery from the likes of Ex Machina and Black Mirror — made even more clear when it is revealed (spoilers, I guess) that Goapele is a robot Nyovest created.
Destiny was directed by Capetonian Kyle Lewis, who has helmed other videos by the likes of Nasty C and Khuli Chana.

“Big ups to Cassper,” wrote one YouTube user. “Visuals are brilliant. Concept is brilliant.”
