A rap musical from Ghana? A crime comedy told entirely in pidgin English? Ghanaian rap duo Fokn Bois broke new ground with their first offering - the original
Coz Ov Moni was reportedly the first ever pidgin musical ever made - and they're doing it again with
Coz Ov Moni 2: Fokn Revenge. And while I've never had the chance to see the first one I really wish I had because the trailer for this sequel is an utter charmer.
Ghanaian rap duo, the FOKN Bois, are back - after the success of Coz Ov
Moni, billed as the first pidgin musical in the world - with the sequel
Coz Ov Moni 2: FOKN Revenge, 'the world's
second first pidgin musical'. While the first installment detailed the
follies and foibles of a day in the life of Wanlov the Kubolor and
M3NSA, the latest film follows their revenge mission against a gang that
ambushed, robbed and left them for dead. The result is eminently
entertaining, as uniquely engaging as the music that gives the film its
irresistible rhythm.
Yes, it's raw and unmistakably low budget but the creators are also obviously talented and having an utter blast on screen. Take a look at the trailer below.
