Ronehi & SGaWD Present The Video For ‘Telfar’

After releasing “Telfar” a while back, SGaWD and fast-rising Nigerian producer Ronehi have now shared the official video for their collaboration — and it leans fully into the song’s stylish, UK garage-inspired swing. The track already felt like a flex in motion: sleek, slightly cheeky, and built for movement. The video treats that energy like a world you can step into.

Directed by Jazboi, the “Telfar” video places SGaWD inside an alté dollhouse — the kind of glossy, curated space where aesthetics and ambition live in the same room. She moves through scenes of controlled chaos: handling calls, keeping her look on point, and stacking money like it’s part of the daily routine. It’s not a storyline in the traditional sense; it’s a moodboard brought to life. The point is the vibe: soft luxury, sharp confidence, and a wink at the “new Lagos” fantasy that alté culture has helped popularise.

Ronehi’s presence complements that setup. While SGaWD plays the main character, he sits back like the calm engine behind the motion — smoking with a mannequin, letting the beat speak, and occasionally reminding you that “Telfar” is as much about the production as it is about the performance. The UK garage influence isn’t just a throwaway label here; it’s the pulse that makes the visual choices work. The bounce gives everything a sense of movement even when nothing “big” is happening.

What makes the video land is how intentional it feels. The styling, the set design, and the off-kilter moments (a mannequin as company, money as décor) all mirror the song’s playful confidence. “Telfar” isn’t trying to beg for seriousness — it’s trying to look good, feel expensive, and soundtrack that version of life where you’re unbothered and getting paid.
