FOKN Revenge”Coz of Moni- Friday Feb 21

The FOKN BOIS (AKA Foes Of Kwame Nkrumah, AKA Fear Of Knowing Nothing, AKA French Objects Killing Ninjas, AKA For Our King Now) are Ghana’s most famous and–thank the lord, only–Christian gospel porn rap group, purveyors of a world renowned brand of smut, irreligion, poor morals, crude humor, and jovial ill-temper. Afropop Worldwide is proud to sponsor the debut US screening of their second film, Coz Ov Moni 2: FOKN Revenge, on Friday, February 21st.
Rappers M3NSA and Wanlov The Kubolor- together known as the FOKN Bois, are the masterminds behind the film “Coz ov Moni 2: FOKN Revenge.” Emerging from a West African culture in the midst of a full fledged, tech-savvy renaissance, the FOKN Bois are proud Ghanians committed to poking fun at the tenderest parts of their society through nuanced jokes about religion, sex and food. At the same time, they are discerning consumers of global pop culture, refusing pigeonholing by creating music that is equally in tune with US rap, Ghanaian Hip-Life, British electronica, and international pop.
In addition to hits like “Thank God We’re Not a Nigerians,” and “Sexing Islamic Girls,” FOKN Bois are also responsible (probably the best word to use in this case) for Coz Ov Moni, the world’s “first Pidgin musical”- and Coz Ov Moni 2, “The world’s second first Pidgin musical.” Written and performed entirely in Ghanaian Pidgin English (with subtitles for the obrofo), the films feature original soundtracks that mix classic Ghanaian highlife and the more modern sounds of rap. Both films follows the duo around through a variety of low-key (mis)adventures across Accra. The result? A charming mashup of slacker humor, nuanced political insight, day-in-the-life verite, and truly catchy tunes.
Since premiering at the National Theatre in Accra in 2010, Coz Ov Moni has been touring film festivals, music festivals, cinemas, and university classrooms around the world. Afropop Worldwide couldn’t be any more excited to be presenting the sequel in New York.

Does he have a private Jet? See Top 10 facts about the Pastor Kumuyi you did not know (Photos)

Image
Nowadays, owning private jets is the new trend for Nigerian pastors. It is so rampant that we have to wonder if Jesus would agree to have one if he was in the shoes of these same pastors today. Here we will try to find out whether William Kumuyi has his own luxurious vessel or not. This would be interesting. Famous Pastors like Ayo Oritsejafor, Bishop David Oyedepo, Enoch Adeboye and Pastor T.B. Joshua are Nigerian pastors that have already been reported to have private jets. Various arguments have been put forward for and against the issue of procurement of a N4 billion aircraft by the General Superintendent of the Deeper Life church. Recently Pastor Kumuyi was called one of the 500 most influential people on the planet apparently owing to his reach in Christendom via his mega church. Pastor Kumuyi is arguably a bigger preacher and pastor than most of the jet-setting pastors, but it is not clear yet if he owns one. What is certain is that he lives a little below the radar

My lesbian story - Yvonne Nelson

Image
M y  interview with top Ghanaian actress – Yvonne Nelson-was a revelation in so many ways. Of the leading Nollywood stars, Yvonne is among those I had not had a close relationship with. I had watched her from afar, seen countless number of her movies and had always thought she was a great and talented actress – someone who combined poise, beauty and style. I had also heard of some unsavory things ascribed to her – the rumors of sexual orientation which some say verged between pure lesbianism and bi-sexualism – all manner of shenanigans that had been whispered and published about her. Some years ago, she came out with a movie, “Heart of Men”, in which she seemed to have appeared in frontal nudity– a development that set off a firestorm of protest among Nollywood lovers –with many condemning the exploitation of graphic sexual images to promote and sell movies – which was a deviation of what Nollywood had always been seen to represent: a family friendly entertainment medium.
