Re: Die Antwoord
To be honest, I don't dig their music at all. But in the "faggot" video, no truer words can be spoken. It's sad that we still live in a world of hate and prejudice. Everyone should get along for who they are not they're sexual/religious/color of their skin. That was a powerful video that more people worldwide should see. Thanks for posting that.

Re: Die Antwoord
Looked up a little more on how they came to be Die Antwoord, and apparently they've been together in a couple previous rap acts as well. They actually are married and have a kid too.
Here's one of their videos from a past group called MaxNormal.TV

Either way, it's a good video of some of their old music.

Re: Die Antwoord
Here is one of their interviews for max normal TV. You can get a sense of their head space even back then. They definitely had a goal in mind but didn't know which form it would take.

Re: Die Antwoord
The reason why it surprised me was based on your higher level of intelligence you would have gotten it. To each their own of course. (that wasn't a diss btw). This isn't about the genre, its about tapping into the feeling. With them it isn't about "hearing" the music, it's about absorbing it. It takes some people a little while. I think this group is the dividing line, it's either you get it or you don't. Regarding my musical taste, its more diverse than you think, on maaany levelsanonymousbrunette wrote:One day I was thinking, thinking was I..."Daniel and I have very similar musical tastes...."hawke000 wrote:anonymousbrunette wrote:I think this thread should DIE.

Plus based on the way you typed it you sound drunk. Party either way!

Don't believe the 60's was the golden age of pop. You glorify the past when the future dries up.

I dig the Philosophy just not the sound they make.

I hear you a lot of people are like that. It can get distracting depending on where your musical tastes are.flattop2001 wrote:I dig the Philosophy just not the sound they make.

Re: Die Antwoord
The music is kind of secondary for me, though it gets in your head, it's the presentation that drew me in. I find the interviews as fascinating as the videos.flattop2001 wrote:I dig the Philosophy just not the sound they make.
