Inmates at a prison in Salford have used smuggled phones to shoot a music video on YouTube under the noses of the guards. The viral music video shows the two Forest Bank prisoners rapping the lyrics in their cells and on the wing with no officers in sight.
Since being uploaded to YouTube, the two minute clip featuring rappers named L1 Manny and Mazza L20 has received a over 178,000 views, the Manchester Evening News reports. A spokesperson for the privately-run prison said: "We constantly review our activity to tackle the issue".
The video which is "filmed by all the mandem" starts with a message reading: "This music video was filmed on the wings". It features wide angle shots of prisoners gathered outside their cells along with a screenshot of an article by the MEN in January last year about a guard who brought paper laced with spice into the jail.
