Die Antwoord - Ugly Boy





Ever since I saw the first video with Die Antwoord ("I Fink U Freaky"), I have been fascinated by their beautiful ugliness. From the fantastic graphic contrast between petite Yolanda and drug addict-looking Ninja (who together with DJ Hi-Tek is the trio that forms the group) to the slightly morbid videos inspired by South African white thrash - culture (called zef) and Ninja's inner world. The new "Ugly Boy" (from the Donker Mag album) takes this to an even more beautiful level, with cameos from Marilyn Manson, Dita von Teese, Cara Delevinge, and more showing of blood, ugly boys (ofc), penis guns, unique fashion, and just spectacular graphics. The details here. The lyrics and song again shows DA making use of the contrast between Yolanda and Ninja in a text about being there for your partner whatever it takes, with samples from Aphex Twin.

Die Antwoord





It's ugly, its explicit and ... its damn catchy. South African Die Antwoord cant be denied, they deliver quality dressed in thrashy provocateur clothes, derived from the zef subculture they take their inspiration from a la Emimem.
