"Call on me": More than a music video

They say a song arrives when the artist’s soul is ready and when our hearts finally slow down enough to listen.

“Call On Me”, created by Namibian icon Lize Ehlers with the incomparable Shafa The GOAT, came to life exactly that way. It grew from a deeply passionate studio session with producer Solani Glo, where rhythm, vulnerability and truth found each other. The song was then refined like a diamond in a polisher by Save Sir of Broken TV Studios, capturing the spirit of the music in visuals that honour both Lize and Shafa’s unique but deeply intertwined styles, almost like land and lineage.

After months of conceptualising and then spearheaded by a team of avid Namibian creatives, “Call On Me” was shot on the Daan Viljoen Road and at a few other intricate local locations during a single, rainy weekend.

Today, “Call On Me” is travelling through Namibia and across oceans. It lives on radio waves, in shared links, in repeat plays and in quiet personal moments, shared by many local and international fans with the project’s creators. Recently named 2026 Entry Song of the Year by Touch 91.7FM and winner of the Battle of the Beats during Lunch Zone with Brenda on IUM Radio, this genre-bending piece is soaring while waving Namibia’s flag high.

“‘Call On Me’ has become a gathering place and a homecoming for me. I am overwhelmed with the positive feedback because it reminds us that the strength we search for has always lived within us and that we never truly walk alone. We rest on the shoulders of giants. We honour the ones who came before us. We rise not alone but carried by memory, spirit and love.” – Lize Ehlers Launched on the same weekend Lize dropped her seventh album with the same title, the music video has been praised by creative collaborators for truly celebrating Namibian sound, fashion, make-up and hair artistry, creative direction, photography and a blend of high-end techniques that pivot into a new season of visual and audio art.

“Some fans said the video is so good it looks like AI. And that is to be celebrated, because not one frame was created by a machine but all by deeply patriotic Namibians who know that telling our own stories will never go out of style. If you want to work with any of the incredible team members, just check out the video credits on YouTube.” – Shafa The GOAT

Lize and Shafa are both deeply excited to continue creating their debut EP and to shape the Namibian narrative through their music. The duo officially only met in 2025 but have already hit the ground running with collaborative projects that include DJ sessions, award performances and various initiatives focusing on economic freedom for all the Namibians they work with.
