‘Men Can Lie’, a very electrifying music video by Kenyan artists Vic West, Brandy Maina, Teslah, and Ssaru is a studio project that roots for transparency and faithfulness among couples.
This is mainly because it’s a fact that most relationships nowadays are hinged on lies, especially since men often lie a lot to women, right from the point of courting to dating, and for many, the lies continue throughout the relationship.
However, although the lies men tell women are endless, in the song ‘Men Can Lie’, the artists attempt to highlight some of the common ones that women can easily detect and it’s because of this that the song has since become a sensation across Africa.
By exposing these lies, Vic West and the ladies on the track aim to create an environment whereby relationships are hinged on truth and honesty instead of lies, which in most cases leads to stability and commitment among partners.
It is this kind of setting and the themes in the song that are making ‘Men Can Lie’ a must-listen and must-watch for almost everyone, whether they are in a relationship or not, because whether you like it or not, the lies often catch up with both the liars and their victims.
Therefore, it’s not by accident or luck that the ‘Men Can Lie’ video boasts over 319K YouTube views and counting so far, because the jam is not only intriguing but is also some sort of advice for lovers who want to enjoy meaningful relationships.
