Future breaking news.... They're trash bags as people. Shame really, because they seemed great here. There are other interviews around this time, maybe a little later that make them look like parodies of overly eccentric (more so than here) artists that aren't in on the joke.
These guys shaped me into the person today I'm really crying right now.. They I can't believe their so successfully and I'm proud, their short films they've been featured in made me smile and they made me realise I'm not just a lame ordinary person who gets bullied all the time I have to stand up for myself and that's gangsta (:
People Commenting either have never really gotten stoned and cant tell the difference between being jet-lagged and being stoned. My god, some people are even saying they're on acid!. Do some research before commenting and learn what they say about smoking dope, as in when they do. Also listen to their lyrics, Die Antwoord are extremely anti hard drugs. And as for being racist, cop on people.
@Paul Gauthier they've both smoked blunts in various videos. Ninja is sitting next to a weed plant while Yolandi smokes a massive blunt in an interview and they were both baked. Idk how they feel about real drugs but they both definitely smoke weed.
@Paul Gauthier idk how tf you got tagged I was replying to the OP. If you read the comment I was agreeing with you and thought I was replying to the person that said they're all straight edge or whatever. If you read both replies you can see we were both making the same point.
This is one of my favorite interviews of this pair. They are far more subdued than their portrayed image, but it all comes with a lot of history that isn't covered in this short set of questions. I do gather that Ninja doesn't really appreciate when they are asked asinine questions about the cultivation and long journey it took them to get to Die Antwoord. I definitely think it's respectable that he wants to focus on the promotion and success of what they have currently achieved, rather than the struggles or trials and tribulations of the past. I'm sure that interviews seem rather redundant and no one wants to be reminded of a segment of their career that may not have been as successful as they had hoped, but now that they are " blowin' up over seas" , how great of an example are they for their tenacity and determination to make their passion and unique views/personalities, into such a defining wave of success on an international/global level! That's inspiration to so many people out their , that they seldom acknowledge or give credit to. Hands down, they are one of a kind and I love that they pull people into new perspectives on a regular basis.
Please look into their son tokki and the zhanie drama. I guarantee you wont love them after, love the art not the artist!! (Ninja also says the n word.... a lot)
I don't think some people understand the incredible art that they put on. They transition and create and and just completely embody the brand that they've created. That's exactly what it is, a brand. It's something so weird that people question it, but just so real at the same time. Completely uncensored realness, but done in an insane way.
Saying that it's a "brand" seems like the complete opposite of what they embody. They're actually not doing a brand, that's why they're real. If you're just doing a brand and acting like it here and there, anyone can smell the bullshit. The nice thing about Die Antwoord is because they don't do branding.
Please look into their son tokki and the zhanie drama. I guarantee you wont love them after, love the art not the artist!! (Ninja also says the n word.... a lot)
These comments aren't great but I can understand why a lot have been made. These guys are smart and educated. Die Antwoord is a creation and these are acts. This is why they don't interview much and why they seem odd. You can see their previous creation MaxNormalTV, where they come across much smarter but you can tell it's still an act. You'll notice the completely different personas they have. I think an old MaxNormalTV even talks about becoming a fake rap act.
People are going to be so butt hurt when they see how intelligent and articulate they both are. Not to mention smart. They've created a whole aesthetic that is being branded and sold by two very normal, bright people. I hope they don't get too hurt and can appreciate the performance art that it is, that they've had to put on ALL THE TIME, for the past few years.
Exactly. It’s a bit of a performance because that’s what artist do. Junkies don’t usually take care of themselves and they are both fit. In a way that requires exercise on a normal routine.
I cocktailed at their House of Blues Las Vegas show, it was sooo funny. Way better than I expected, hella high energy. At one point they said "Amuuurrica- Fuck yeah!" I almost cried laughing so hard.
Really?? not a single comment about that he said that Bilbo Baggins is from New Zealand.. Damn I love him for saying that Ow and it's Afrikaans what they are speaking in songs and well I'm dutch and understand like 30% of it
I've watched several of their videos now on CZcams . I don't like them but God damn it . I can't stop watching them they're very unique and interesting they kind of grow on you like foot fungus.
They live their lifes to the fullest, and I like them for that, also they don't give a fuck about what's he gona say or what they gona say and etc... They just laid back cool people ;))
i love how ninja says, we in africa stopped caring about racism along time ago, he said its an 80s thing its old and done here and no one cares about that anymore, i wish that for us all.
Yolandi is adorable man. Her I dont give a fuck style makes her so sexy and cute. She comes off so shy in the interview its ridiculously attractive. Super pretty!!!!
To me it's hilarious how they have become the prisoners of their own joke. They started as a parody of the whole "gansta style" and now they have actually become these caricatures. At least in the light of latest accusations. To me it's fascinating that some people don't realize how this whole DA concept was totally calculated to the teeth.
Perfect interveiw to show that a stage persona has nothing to do with who they really are they seem very nice and want what all people want a little privacy and using a talent to the fullest while being a normal family with a daughter. Lot of celebs crack up because they try to keep up the act all the time but these two seem to be an exception to the rule.
These guys are awesome! People give them a hard time because they don't realize that their music is an acquired taste and only look at the surface of what they do
Please look into their son tokki and the zhanie drama. I guarantee you wont love them after, love the art not the artist!! (Ninja also says the n word.... a lot)
It's hard not to think that I'm their biggest fan based on how popular they are, but to put it in perspective there was my life before I discovered them and there was life after. I was fascinated by their music, videography, words, and attitude. I was almost nervous about watching their live shows and interviews as if they weren't going to live up to my expectations in real life, and to my delight I wasn't "let down" when I dug deeper into their story. It would be so hard to keep my cool if I walked past them in some train or plane station.

@@BuXnAMaN Miss them Max Normal times 💔
Honest? They are a act bro, everything you see and hear is fake lol.

everytime I watch these two it makes me miss home, I miss SA and Zim waa
4:42 Yolandi is so adorable!! lol.
These guys shaped me into the person today I'm really crying right now.. They I can't believe their so successfully and I'm proud, their short films they've been featured in made me smile and they made me realise I'm not just a lame ordinary person who gets bullied all the time I have to stand up for myself and that's gangsta (:
Dude huh....
Wtf you're very strange
Damn, comments are harsh.... but like I wouldnt look up to these people either
Honestly good for you. Fuck the haters. :)
Basic bitch trying to be different
People Commenting either have never really gotten stoned and cant tell the difference between being jet-lagged and being stoned. My god, some people are even saying they're on acid!.
Do some research before commenting and learn what they say about smoking dope, as in when they do. Also listen to their lyrics, Die Antwoord are extremely anti hard drugs.
And as for being racist, cop on people.
@Paul Gauthier they've both smoked blunts in various videos. Ninja is sitting next to a weed plant while Yolandi smokes a massive blunt in an interview and they were both baked. Idk how they feel about real drugs but they both definitely smoke weed.
@Paul Gauthier idk how tf you got tagged I was replying to the OP. If you read the comment I was agreeing with you and thought I was replying to the person that said they're all straight edge or whatever. If you read both replies you can see we were both making the same point.
This is one of my favorite interviews of this pair. They are far more subdued than their portrayed image, but it all comes with a lot of history that isn't covered in this short set of questions. I do gather that Ninja doesn't really appreciate when they are asked asinine questions about the cultivation and long journey it took them to get to Die Antwoord. I definitely think it's respectable that he wants to focus on the promotion and success of what they have currently achieved, rather than the struggles or trials and tribulations of the past. I'm sure that interviews seem rather redundant and no one wants to be reminded of a segment of their career that may not have been as successful as they had hoped, but now that they are " blowin' up over seas" , how great of an example are they for their tenacity and determination to make their passion and unique views/personalities, into such a defining wave of success on an international/global level! That's inspiration to so many people out their , that they seldom acknowledge or give credit to. Hands down, they are one of a kind and I love that they pull people into new perspectives on a regular basis.
Please look into their son tokki and the zhanie drama. I guarantee you wont love them after, love the art not the artist!! (Ninja also says the n word.... a lot)
i want to meet them so badly
Same. *DX*
I wonder how long they can stay in character.
I think that was a cool interview. I like hearing what they have to say. I like them more and more each time i see them. Thanks for the video.
Gotta love the Aussie accent on the interviewer..... I never even knew they made it here to Australia 🇦🇺
They look like they got dragged out of bed to do the interview.
Her face is just like "sigh lets get this over with already".
I don't think some people understand the incredible art that they put on. They transition and create and and just completely embody the brand that they've created. That's exactly what it is, a brand. It's something so weird that people question it, but just so real at the same time. Completely uncensored realness, but done in an insane way.
Saying that it's a "brand" seems like the complete opposite of what they embody. They're actually not doing a brand, that's why they're real. If you're just doing a brand and acting like it here and there, anyone can smell the bullshit. The nice thing about Die Antwoord is because they don't do branding.
they're so pleasantly aloof
They are both so in tune with each other x
These guys are awesome. I love their music and their freaky style.

These comments aren't great but I can understand why a lot have been made.
These guys are smart and educated. Die Antwoord is a creation and these are acts. This is why they don't interview much and why they seem odd. You can see their previous creation MaxNormalTV, where they come across much smarter but you can tell it's still an act. You'll notice the completely different personas they have. I think an old MaxNormalTV even talks about becoming a fake rap act.
People are going to be so butt hurt when they see how intelligent and articulate they both are. Not to mention smart. They've created a whole aesthetic that is being branded and sold by two very normal, bright people. I hope they don't get too hurt and can appreciate the performance art that it is, that they've had to put on ALL THE TIME, for the past few years.
Exactly. It’s a bit of a performance because that’s what artist do. Junkies don’t usually take care of themselves and they are both fit. In a way that requires exercise on a normal routine.
Just watched these at Reading, they smashed the NME tent, certainly not mainstream but amazing and unique with a wicked live set!
Inexplicably
Honored t have witnessed you music. Sincere appreciation
I had a pet rat myself. She passed away one month before her second birthday! My heart was broken! Thank you Yolandi for sharing your pain!
She said she got it stuffed standing like master splinter!! You fucking weirdo
+Michael E Lambert Calm down... Lol. You're embarrassing yourself.
Got four ratties myself
I cocktailed at their House of Blues Las Vegas show, it was sooo funny. Way better than I expected, hella high energy. At one point they said "Amuuurrica- Fuck yeah!" I almost cried laughing so hard.
Love them!!! They are so laid back from their on stage personas and are the cutes odd couple ever!!
i love these two!!!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍
Really?? not a single comment about that he said that Bilbo Baggins is from New Zealand.. Damn I love him for saying that
Ow and it's Afrikaans what they are speaking in songs and well I'm dutch and understand like 30% of it
Ninja's Aphex Twin tattoo (left forearm) is a choice shout-out to that whole scene ...
love love love these two!!
They're truly amazing and culture changing.
I've watched several of their videos now on CZcams . I don't like them but God damn it . I can't stop watching them they're very unique and interesting they kind of grow on you like foot fungus.
They live their lifes to the fullest, and I like them for that, also they don't give a fuck about what's he gona say or what they gona say and etc... They just laid back cool people ;))
It's amazing at how shy they seem compared to to there shows quite a contrast
thank you Yolandi!
I can't figure out where his arm starts or finishes
+instantsurgery he's just a head and arms reaching out of the void
lmao
They're PURE
Polite and respectful.
i love how ninja says, we in africa stopped caring about racism along time ago, he said its an 80s thing its old and done here and no one cares about that anymore, i wish that for us all.
I love these guys.
Anyone else notice the camera like tired to zoom in and tried to get an up skirt on Yolondie
*Yolandi, and it was zooming in on her nervous hand movements.
What's wrong with camera person with Yolandi? xD
I've heard Yolandi say "once" a few times, kinda like you'd say "word/I agree", is it used that way in Afrikaans or is it just an personal thing?
They are both really sweet.
Yolandi is adorable man. Her I dont give a fuck style makes her so sexy and cute. She comes off so shy in the interview its ridiculously attractive. Super pretty!!!!
To me it's hilarious how they have become the prisoners of their own joke. They started as a parody of the whole "gansta style" and now they have actually become these caricatures. At least in the light of latest accusations. To me it's fascinating that some people don't realize how this whole DA concept was totally calculated to the teeth.
I love them so much
Really like that videos and the music is better than most music I listen to
Perfect interveiw to show that a stage persona has nothing to do with who they really are they seem very nice and want what all people want a little privacy and using a talent to the fullest while being a normal family with a daughter. Lot of celebs crack up because they try to keep up the act all the time but these two seem to be an exception to the rule.
LOL
These two are just amazing and the most unique and freaky music EVER!!!!
I want to meet them.They are so wonderful❤
They have it together, and broke through the hyper cultural chain guard fences quite well. New role models for going further.
They are both so cool
She kinda reminds me of Grimes for some reason
those where some condescending handshakes
I love this!!!!
It's amazing that people who live so far away from each other can have the exact same accent.
These guys are awesome! People give them a hard time because they don't realize that their music is an acquired taste and only look at the surface of what they do
Please look into their son tokki and the zhanie drama. I guarantee you wont love them after, love the art not the artist!! (Ninja also says the n word.... a lot)
What they did to the guy from Hercules and the Love Affair was disturbingly sociopatic.
@@oop6390 yeah I've seen that now, I'm no longer a fan of them. Keep in mind, my original comment was made 4 years ago
@@slartybartfast I wasnt having a go at u, i was just explaining..
@@oop6390 yeah I was just saying as well
Yo-landi wearing that Batista t-shirt dope.
Pretty cool how their appears to be a fire burning next to each.. and they ROCK ! xoxoxox
They are rolling hard. Just keep watching her facial and eye movements
THEY ARE SO RAW, I LOVE IT. It's so easy to see they are not influenced by anything.
It's hard not to think that I'm their biggest fan based on how popular they are, but to put it in perspective there was my life before I discovered them and there was life after. I was fascinated by their music, videography, words, and attitude. I was almost nervous about watching their live shows and interviews as if they weren't going to live up to my expectations in real life, and to my delight I wasn't "let down" when I dug deeper into their story. It would be so hard to keep my cool if I walked past them in some train or plane station.

Yeah Ninja is a total creep, they both are satanists
@@saarapollonen8138 erm yeah let's not disrespect religions. Satanism is a very misunderstood and really good religion to be part of.
@@oop6390 I've read couple of Alistair Crowley's books and didn't find anything "good" about them or satanism in general. Only a narcissistic hedonistic point of view where heartless people use each other
@@saarapollonen8138 yeah well idk who that is but they sound wrong. The form of Satanism I’m talking about is atheist that are into self love, caring about the children and animals around us and nature too so..
Big fan yeeeeeee shouts out Antwood
I lost it when he said, 'Bilbo Baggins is from New Zealand" Man they are so real and genuine, i love it. So cool! ♥
seen these guys live twice now, honestly Yolandi is so tight and Ninja is such a buster haha like he can do himself, Yolandi needs to drop him and pursue solo
