	Koppo and Lady B :: A Documentary Film :: A US-Cameroon Co-Production
		Bikutsi translated means "beat the earth." Rooted in the cultural traditions of the Beti people who live throughout the country's southern and central provinces, Bikutsi music is an intensely rhythmic style, and for hundreds of years was composed with acoustic instruments such as the zanza, balafon, and various percussion instruments.
		Among the Beti of central Cameroon, the balafon is often hewn out of the rainforest's red wood, tied together with reeds, amplified with calabashes, and worn around the waist.
		They are a subgroup of the Beti, and their language and culture share affinities with that of the Ewondo, Bulu, and other related ethnic groups in central and southern Cameroon.

	Resources on the Fang
		Their language (or Beti dialect), also called Ewondo, is the most widely spoken of the Beti languages in Cameroon, with an estimated 577,700 speakers in 1982.
		The Bulu tribes are the Bulu proper of Sangmélima, Kribi, and Ebolowa, the Fong and Zaman of the Dja River valley, the Yengono, Yembama and Yelinda of the Nyong River valley, and the Yesum, Yebekanga, Yekebolo, and Mvele.
		The Bulu followed the Nyong River westward, while the Fang turned south and followed the Dja River valley into the southernmost territories of modern Cameroon and into the area of present-day Gabon and Equatorial Guinea.

		The president of Cameroon, Paul Biya, is himself a Bulu, which has allowed him to appoint a disproportionate number of fellow Beti-Pahuin to governmental posts (a practice that has also led to allegations of tribalism on Biya's part).

	A History of Bikutsi in Cameroon
		The Beti’s music, bikut-si, is a rootsy and brutal musical style that has evolved into one of Cameroon’s most popular forms of cultural expression.
		Historically, these traditional Beti ceremonies could be divided into two phases: the Ekang phase where all things imaginary or mythological are discussed, and the Bikut-si phase, where all real-world issues are brought to light.4 During such celebrations, the stringed mvet instrument (a double-sided acoustic harp with calabash amplification) is used by the Beti storytellers.
		But the Beti’s balafon tradition was able to transcend the seven-day-division of the week, and tie the Beti psychologically to the timelessness of their tradition.17 Thus the bars that were to thrive and remain in demand were one’s which offered this taste of home.

		The most well known example of this is the 1911 appointment of the German-sympathiser and interpreter Charles Atangana, a member of the Mvog Atemenge sub-lineage, as paramount chief of the Ewondo and Bane.
		The Bulu feared that their trade relations and autonomy would be threatened by Atangana's appointment.

		Even though Yates ventured out alone driving himself on a Saturday evening on what many still believed was an escapade, Paul Biya who is usually little moved by events went into action a week later and sacked all his security chiefs and Ename Ename.
		The point now is whether it is another Beti who should have been appointed to the Assembly.
		At Wednesday’s reception to welcome deputies to the new session of parliament Anglophone CPDM deputies did not hide their gross disappointment with the regime on yet another senior Beti appointment.
