True History After the Most Famous Video of the Time

African men in costume, glasses and hats, dancing under the rhythms of Vicetone's “Astronomy” and Tony Igy as they carry a coffin, you've probably tied them to some comic situation just for social media, but not after- video history is much more interesting than that.

So that We may clarify in advance. These men are not ordinary people, but they are called pallbeer by cock a blanket that is thrown over the coffin and used to imply someone who carries the coffin. In various cultures, the coffin is held differently: At S. B.A. and Canada are usually held on the handles up to the waist, while in countries like the United Kingdom, Australia, Ireland, most countries in Asia, and the Balkans are held on their shoulders. coffin keepers may be friends and family, or employees of funeral agencies paid for the service. This is where we get to the video.

Video dancers are a group from Ghana, located in the coastal town of Prampram. They perform throughout the country, even internationally, and they are known as Dada awu. Dada awu is led by Benjamin Aidoo, who created the group as a service to carry the coffin at the mortuary ceremonies. Later, he had a genius idea to add choreography to make the moment unforgettable. If the deceased's family choose to have Dada awu jump, there's extra fee.

In Ghana, mortar ceremonies have specific characteristics. They can last up to seven days. Some families employ people to mourn because it serves as a ransom form for the dead person. In addition, there are dances, mostly when people die for natural causes in old age.

Dada's videos have long circulated, but received more attention when they presented themselves in a BBC documentary in 2017.

Recently, TikTok masters edited the song “Astronomy” by Russian artist Tony Igy and Dutch duo Vicetone. The coffin - dancing video on the shoulder became a meme, generally referring to the Coronobrus.

In Brazil, there were signs on the street that wrote “stay at home, or dance with us”.
