Artist: Die Antwoord

Our buddy Nick Irving sent us some shots from the Die Antwoord show this past Saturday night at Irving Plaza in NYC. Looks raucous.

Tweet Die Antwoord is a rave-rap duo from South Africa who bring a unique style to their hip-hop while their past completely mysterious. The duo consists of Ninja and Yo-Landi Vi$$er , who both alternate between rapping and singing on each song. Ninja seems to be the driving force behind Die Antwoord , his thick accent acting as a constant reminder of just how different he is from other prominent voices in hip-hop. Yo-Landi's voice [...]

Vulgarity can make for interesting (if not exactly radio-friendly) music, as long as you know how to pull off "trashy, yet flashy." According to the Cape Town-native hip-hop trio Die Antwoord (which means "The Answer" in Afrikaans), the band's outrageous approach is remnant of Zef, a South-African style that emanates many things glitzy and glamorous yet simultaneously hard and raunchy. Die Antwoord specializes in odd, catchy hooks and is far from afraid to douse its music videos with racy scenes and creepy visuals. Band members Ninja, Yo-Landi Vi$$er, and DJ Hi-Tek might seem a bit scary with their in-your-face, outlandish appearances [...]

When the announcement arrived that South Africa's rave-rap collective Die Antwoord were leaving Interscope Records , due to conflicts in creative control, it was an early indicator that their sophomore full-length, Ten$ion, would have all the same vulgarity, filth, and Zef-side as the trio's successful debut, $o$ . The move also reinforced Ninja and Yo-Landi Vi$$er's "Full Flex" mentality, but after multiple listens to the 36-minute Zef experiment, it seems the album could have benefited from some artistic restraint. Tracks like "I Fink You Freeky" and "Hey Sexy" [...]

"There's your halftime show."

Last night, South African freak rap combo Die Antwoord took their current single " I Fink U Freeky " to The Late Show With David Letterman . It was considerably tame, given what we've seen from the group previously , but Yolandi did wear her big, sinister black contacts, for what it's worth. Watch it below. Read More...

Die Antwoord : Official | Facebook | Twitter [ via ] Uhm. How do I put this tactfully? Well, Die Antwoord has always been slightly difficult for me to digest. It might be the shock factor. One thing I'll give them is they demand attention. You can't help but check these guys out. In addition to their gravitating attention they put on one hell of a show. It's like combining the late 80s/early 90s stage presence of Red Hot Chilli Peppers + the insanity and shock value of someone like Slipknot. [...]

This is the place for puppies and new music... glad to have ya! These are the actual puppies that Dr. Dog delivered before their last tour.

Het zuidafrikaanse Die Antwoord maakt raprave en nice freaky vids, dat doen ze al een tijdje maar de laatste single I Fink U Freeky en bijbehorende video zijn wel erg lollig. Vandaar nu ook ff lekker bangen met die Antwoord op eclectro.

As I've been hyping up Die Antwoord 's new album for nearly 4 months now, the wait is over. You can purchase it via iTunes or do what I'm going to do and buy a vinyl. Ten$ion has 13 tracks and a few humorous skits. Ninja, Yo-landi and DJ Hi-Tek weren't messing around when composing this album, because they marketed it in the best of ways—subliminal messages and mystery.

This was not the week to release a halfassed music video. This was the week when a whole lot of people, from microbudget indie nobodies to massive stars, worked hard on giving us something. Even the terrible videos, like the absurd and garish Madonna football-themed car-wreck " Give Me All Your Luvin' " were the product of a whole ton of obvious work. I had to leave some very good videos off this list, and everything below is well worth your eyeball-time. And that goes triple for this week's #1 pick, a badass iconic clip from an artist [...]
