Haha, Ninja brought the pink Floyd shorts back in that first video. For some weird reason I really dig them and have since the first video started circulating.

Agreed though that the last part with DJ HiTech is just not good. I agree with Ignatious about it just not being done right.

Also, why the fuck am I so fascinated with Yolandi. It makes me feel dirty in an inbred whitetrash kind of way.

their previous stuff was way better. faggot just strikes me as an attempt at being gangsta and not doing anything out of the ordinary to somehow make that interesting. a failed irony or parody or, worse, a simply failed attempt.

I do enjoy their other stuff, though. rich bitch and that song about african tribal penis cutting rituals or whatever are my two favourites.

I know. The letterman thing was weird, but it gave me hope for all the happy mutants out there.

Love this band like most of you. Did not hear the first record, but grabbed the new one and have it on repeat.

I really like the explanation of their usage of the word 'faggot' - I'm not gay and I refrain from using that word in any context. It's cool to hear that DJ Hi-Tek took the word and removed any negative connotation from it. It's nice to hear that some thought goes into each use instead of saying it just to say it.

Truly respect these guys. Their major told them to change and they said fuck it. These guys deserve every bit of success they've got.

Also, this track fucking rules. Production is solid to say the least.

I admit it. I do not know why, but I like them. It should not be possible, but it is.

I have watched 2 vids of theirs and it does nothing for me. I will say at least they are trying something a bit different involving rap.

I'm not a fan of their music, but I still think that they're one of the weirdest/coolest groups active in todays music scene.

my first exposure to them was this vid... still enjoy it.

mjsemtex · Posted: Fri Feb 17, 2012 11:36 am Post subject:

This was my introduction to them. I found it by accident while trying to browse YouTube one night while coming down from a freakish synthetic tryptamine. It was quite a WTF moment:

+1 the love of weirdness. There are the banal bits at times, and Yo-Landi's softer than soft style is way unctuous. When it all comes together though, they inspire hope in pop music, which for me is quite rare.

Yeah well. I've watched a fair few of their videos now, including the Harmony Korine one (and I'm generally a fan of his stuff). But I can't shake the feeling it's all engineered bullshit. Like there's someone behind the scenes pulling the strings, hoping they're going to end up with a new Lady Gaga on their hands.

The music itself doesn't seem all that innovative despite the weird touches. There seems to be a lot of standard gangsta rap shit there - that's ok if it's your bag, but it's hardly new.

This may be just prejudice. If instead of Afrikaner accents they had a broad Aussie twang they would be indistinguishable from the bogans that hang out at the shop down the road from me... and the area shown in that Harmony Korine video could well be around here as well.

And maybe they're genuine - the "Evil Boy" stuff touches a nerve with me, it's a valid message. Kind of banging you over the head with it, but that's what it takes to get through to a lot of people, hey. Jury's out for me for the time being though.
