Die Antwoord : cancelled ๐Ÿค”


I found the group attractive because of their radical anarchistic style and sounds. They were doing something fresh (at least for me). But this week a Video related to the band reached me, which awkwardly surprised me.

I think that before speaking about it, you should watch it yourself.

YouTube player

The videos are being deleted from YouTube and Ninja, the singer, claimed that it was edited. Here is his post in FB

Ok, so let believe that the video was edited and was not showing all what happened.

  • First: you shouldn’t use “faggot” as an insult.
  • Second: you should NEVER use “faggot” as an insult against a gay person. Doesn’t matters what he has done to you. There are plenty of insults.
  • Third: even not knowing what happened before, you should never go to a person and spit him in the face.
  • Fourth: again, yet not knowing what happened before, seeing how Andy Butler just tries to run away shows ho was here the ones trying to attack and provoke. If not, he would fight back.
  • Fifth: Then Yolandi faking a sexual assault… and Ninja saying “She’s like Marilyn Monroe! This is an Oscar Award-winning scene now!”. Because of people like you, Yolandi, faking sexual assaults, there are a lot of women who are REALLY being sexual assaulted, usually, never get trusted.
  • Sixth: if Andy Butler was stalking and harassing them all the time, why do they don’t have any proof?
  • Seventh: “We don’t care about people’s sexual preference. Our DJ and best friend DJ HITEK is gay, and a lot of people in our crew are gay.”. That sounds to me like the typical excuse of “I’m not homophobic, I have gay friends” or “I’m not racist, I have black friends.”.
  • Eight: how Ninja is calling him “faggot” and how he spits Andy in his face, cannot be edited. The same with the “Marilyn Monroe” phrase.

There are more points for sure, but these ones are for me enough to never again spend a second of my life listening or watching any production of these assholes.

As said, they are cancelled. At least for me.

 

Because I know that the YouTube Video will be deleted again… if you want to watch it, I can send you another link.
