Lineup and details for Afri Kokoa Presents: Fokn Bois Live! on Friday 16th September 2011
AFRI-KOKOA presents FOKN Bois (Wanlov,M3nsa and DJ Edu (1 Xtra). When it comes to the Pidgen Music Super Duo known as the FOKN Bois, the two "h"s in Hiphop stand for "Humour" and "Hilarious".
One half is Wanlov the Kubolor; the other half is M3NSA the Magnificent. Both recently MOBO nominated for "Best African Act", the FOKN Bois are credited for creating the first Pidgen Musical film in the world dubbed "Coz Ov Moni" which has premiered to high patronage in Ghana the UK and the USA.
The film itself premiered in the UK and the US, has been accepted at the Rio International Film Festival (Brazil), and at the Pan African Film Festivals in Los Angeles and Cannes.
It was screened at the Black August Festival in New York, where M3NSA blessed the stage with Hip-hop icons Dead Prez and Talib Kweli.
They are being compared to duos like Outkast, Redman & Method Man, Kid N Play and Aki & Porpor or Laurel & Hardy, but their fans know to expect anything from this insane super duo who balance lyrical skills with satire and sarcasm. Their style of Hiphop is raw, braggadocios, witty and eccentric.
The FOKN Bois are currently working on their next album "FOKN Wit Ewe" which they claim they are making as politically incorrect as possible to lose all their fans and replace them with air conditioners.
This is not an African thing...just do the FOKN thing!
DJs: AJ Kwame (Afri-kokoa), Volta 45 (Afrospot) & Chief Commander Yaaba
Playing a super funky selection of afrobeat, highlife, hiplife, afro-mashups.....
Afro-Market: Kayobi clothing and T shirts ('Make Fufu Not War')
