Wouldn't call Die Antwoord a joke, not completely. Their beats are amazing, I listen to them a lot in the gym. Both of them are good rappers, but I think what appeals to me most is how unique they are. Old useless campaigners like Plugger and ND will say that's a good thing because they're shit, but nobody else is doing what they are, and it's awesome.
There's a good reason that nobody else is doing what they are and it's not because they're awesome.

Please dont get me wrong, I LOVE Die Antwoord.
Its not that they are a joke, its more they are having a laugh.
They are playing characters and really enjoying it. Its not fake per say, rather its embracing their inner scumbag.

Example- Then (with a slight South African English accent):
"I break down
Hypothetical situations
During rhythmic conversations
That give birth to tangible manifestations"
-
"Don't waste your energy on bullshit interaction
Don't be scared of anything except letting yourself down
Out-do yourself, work harder than anyone else... now
Make very clear distinctions between parasites and creators
Be a creator instead of a second-hand artificial flavour"

Now (in a heavy Afrikaans accent) :
"Lift up your dress, open up your legs
Your vagina's sewn up, untie the thread
My sublime rhyme inside your head
Your mind is rushing, vagina gushing
Another chick in the corner taking a piss
It looks nice, the whole vibe is totally kinky
Look around, the new room is fancy
Remove your fur coat, remove your panties
I'm rockin' a suit and a black face mask,
I ejaculate in a champagne glass."


Their DJ Sibot (Hi tek) is also ******* quality.
He gets a touch too techno for me at times in the last couple of albums but look at the campaigners skills.

Already a classic.

Lyrical genius that's just inherent with the stones. The double and triple meanings that lie underneath this song really are just so mesmerising.

It's not subtle, if you're smart. It's all about saying I'm here now and this is the meaning. This may shock some of you but there's actually no big jet plane in this song. It's a metaphor!

Show me something from the 80's with this much lyrical depth and I'll show you the door because that's impossible.

A and J are one of my favourites artists and should get a 5 from everyone here if they actually listen.

Subtle, brilliant, everlasting, Angus and Julia stone will be remembered long after we're gone.

What a duo.
Hard to think of anything that even comes close... except this subtle masterpiece that has already passed the test of time.


Very few people know hes not actually talking about bombs going 'boom boom boom' at all.
Has subtlety to its depth, and depth to its subtlety.
Brilliant!

Don't mock me.
19 wins says otherwise.
I bet you actually think big jet plane is about a big jet plane.

If you don't vote for Tedeschi Trucks Band you're a tasteless campaigner who can get the **** out of my contest. There genuinely isn't a better guitar player alive. And if you mention some metal ****** as a better guitarist you can eat a bucket of shit while you leave my contest.
Seriously, It came close to my billy.
