What language is this?!?

Spoken in Africa.

Series of clicks, whistles, thumps, and other various noises.

Not common.

Ebonics? Omotic?

Kung, it\'s a bushman language.  It\'s pronounced !Kung, has the slash / for the dental click, the exclamation mark for the postalveolar one, and two slashes for the lateral one. In more recent proposals a k is prefixed to a voiceless click (and g for a voiced one and n for a nasal one). The (imaginary) word k/quila
