| Die Antwoord |
The name of the band (Die Antwoord) meanas "The Answer" in Afrikaans language (that's like Dutch, just cooler).
Die Antwoord are rocking a "Zef" image. Zef is something like the South African white trash way of life - people with no money trying to look rich, hip, fancy, etc.
The point is that you have to understand what they stand for to be able to appreciate their stuff. Most people just don't get it.
So, know your shit before you start talking shit about shit you don't understand, Okay?
Die Antwoord are totally DIY.
They recorded an album on a PC in their bedroom and put it for free download on their web site. Shortly after that, the server that was hosting their web site crashed because of the huge amounts of hits it was getting. The whole shit just exploded. The Answer answered by shooting and uploading a self-made video for the song "Enter The Ninja" on YouTube. The video generated 7 Million views in no time and as a result of that Die Antwoord signed a multi record deal with... ATTENTION! ...Interscope Records.
Die Antwoord are:
Ninja - male singer and creative mastermind
Yo-landi Vi$$er - hot white trash chick, singer
Dj Hard Tek - a mysterious personality that supposedly does their beats
Before we move on to their newest video, here is a selection of three older Die Antwoord videos to get you started:
And here is their newest classic - a clip for the song Rich Bitch.
What can I say? This shit rocks. Yolandi is a little Tasmanian devil, bursting golden flakes out of her vagina. How fucking cool is that? She can afford it - she's a rich bitch now.
Die Antwoord are the only rap band that I can listen to. I'm serious. I fucking hate rap but this shit is just on ANOTHER LEVEL.
Enjoy.
