South Africans Ask Hilarious Questions to Americans in #AmericaCanIAsk

Twitter is ablaze as South Africans ask all the questions they have ever wanted to ask Americans.

South Africans are fed up with the stereotypes that abound with regards to the African continent. And, so in true South African style, they have taken to Twitter under #AmericaCanIAsk to ask Americans some of their most pressing questions. From asking why Americans feel lions roam about the streets as if in a jungle, to why they pronounce certain things differently from everyone else, it's impossible to not find some of the shade absolutely hilarious.

Here are a whole lot of those hilarious tweets to brighten up your day (or not, if you're American).

Watch EL, Joey B and Falz' New Video for 'Ehua'

Ghana meets Nigeria in this hilarious new clip.

Ghanaian rappers EL and Joey B connect with Nigeria's Falz for this addictive new collaboration and music video for "Ehua."

"Ehua" is built on energetic afro-electronic beat work produced by EL himself. Joey B handles the hook while Falz kicks things off early with a solid verse.

The eye-catching and hilarious music video for the single, directed by Yaw Skyface, features EL as a policeman, Falz as the 'oga' bossman, and Joey B as a worker for the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG).

Falz takes Joey B's woman by showing off his money and status, so Joey B enlists policeman EL to get back at Falz. The plan backfires however as the officer decides to stick around and party with the rich instead of helping the everyday worker out.
