«It’s like a deformed anger which comes out us. Some kind of shy happiness», says Wanlov the Kubolor, one half of the Ghanaian rap duo FOKN Bois. In the Norient podcast he talks together with his musical partner M3nsa about their visions and their way of doing art in a religion-shaped context. A podcast from the Norient exhibition Seismographic Sounds, produced by Thomas Burkhalter and Maame Adjei.
