They have been interviewed on BBC Radio 1, BBC 1XTRA and BBC World Service, and have been featured in prestigious zines such as Arise, FAB & Canoe. Their latest release "FOKN Dunaquest in Budapest" has been remixed by the biggest names in global house/bass from around the world.
Often compared to duos like Outkast, Red & Meth and LMFAO, but their fans (all being upgraded to air conditioners) know to expect anything and everything more from this raw, braggadocious, witty and eccentric super duo.
This is not an African thing...just do the FOKN thing!
Godless
FOKN Bois Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
E dey feel like Hell
Beautiful women
Wot b dat smell?
Fit to be the candles
Is the smell of sin!
Jesus wont b happy
If dey let him in
I mean priest
Licking that breest?
U mean breast
I'm not impressed
This is not the best
Is this a test?
Resist the thirst
Oh no her thighs, shining in my eyes
Is a disguise, they're guys
Oh no, I don't believe so
Y r we here?
Oh my soul
All men are godless
All men are lost these days
Amen our god is great
We all need a god
We all need a god
God
Is that Jesus?

Rolling reefers?

Haile unclassy

He looks hammered
All men are godless
All men are lost these days
Amen our god is great
We all need a god
We all need a god
God
The lyrics of FOKN Bois's song "Godless" seem to be a satirical commentary on religious hypocrisy and the confusion surrounding different religious beliefs. The song starts by questioning the state they are in, expressing that it feels like hell. They mention the presence of beautiful women, but also question the scent in the air, stating that it is the smell of sin. They suggest that even Jesus wouldn't be happy if he were to be in this situation.
The lyrics then shift focus to a priest engaging in inappropriate behavior, which the singer finds unimpressive. They question whether this is a test and encourage others to resist their sinful desires. However, they then admit to being distracted by a pair of attractive thighs, only to discover that they belong to someone who identifies as male. This reveals the singer's surprise and disbelief.
The chorus contains the main idea of the song, stating that all men are godless and lost in the present day. It emphasizes the need for a god, highlighting the universal desire for spirituality and guidance.
Overall, the lyrics seem to be critiquing religious hypocrisy and the confusion that can arise from conflicting religious beliefs and behaviors.
