Die Antwoord

Die Antwoord (meaning: The Answer in Afrikaans). 

These guys are crazy, they are a hiphop group from South Africa. We absolutley love their music, never heard anything like it before...probably because they are rapping in a South African accent. We first heard of them around Coachella time last April...apparently they tore it up...i can agree just from watching this footage
Their backbeats are enough to keep us at THE SWEAT happy but there is also the added pleasure of catchy hooks and "scary" lyrics (scary in a good way)...ahem...

"No fuckin around I’m cutting down

Anyone in my path
Tryna fuck up my game with razor sharp
Lyrical throw stars
Killin’ my flow"



Their new video for Evil Boy is the best thing EVER...(right at this moment we don't even feel like we are exaggerating) They've got DIPLO (genius), a teenage Xhosa emcee...phallic idols, junk-slanging, a penis microphone, District 9 prawn arms, Yolandi in a rat jacket....JUST WOW
