African Cowboy by Alex Boyé Wins Big at the 2025 Moonless International Film Festival
We’re excited to announce that the powerful and genre-defying music video African Cowboy, written and performed by Alex Boyé, has taken home Best Music Video and Best Original Song at the 2025 Moonless International Film Festival.
Featured in the upcoming film Revelations, African Cowboy is more than just a song—it’s a cultural statement. Blending African rhythms with the heart and soul of country-western music, Boyé delivers a stunning performance that bridges continents, genres, and generations. The music video features the amazingly talented Richard Mofe-Damijo.
The music video—shot with cinematic quality—earned high praise for its visual storytelling, bold style, and emotional resonance. Audiences and judges alike were moved by Boyé’s commanding presence and the song’s powerful message of identity, resilience, and reinvention.
With the Best Original Song & Music Video awards, African Cowboy marks a significant highlight of this year’s festival and a landmark moment in cross-cultural musical storytelling.
Congratulations to Alex Boyé and the entire Revelations creative team on this well-earned recognition. We can’t wait to see what’s next.
