Fatty Boom Boom next. Keep in mind these are 100% committed performance artists. They are also really talented musicians, but the art/shock value comes first. I'm pretty sure they are actually sociopaths as well.
I'm German, but grew up in South Africa, so these guys are from where I grew up and I heard them 13 years ago and I thought they were a joke. Never expected them to get famous haha. I saw them live in Scotland though and they were great.
Brad's best expression yet and he held it for the whole first half. Awesome. I would have never thought I'd see a Die Antwoord reaction from you guys but it makes perfect sense now. When you're rocking them in public, you sometimes have to look around to make sure no one sees you. I stumbled upon them 3 years ago and at first I looked just like Brad. 10 minutes later I'm humming and soft singing that song,10 minutes after that, I'm watching it again and checking out their other stuff. You're not going to be able to get that song out of your head. Stay cool guys. Y'all helped make it a great year. Y'all are about to have a blast with this baby, I'm so happy for y'all. Damn...long... sorry 🤘😛🤘
I like die antwoord, seen them live before a Tool concert, and they were the highlight of the night. The whole grass field was shaking like a earthquake.
I could not help but rub my hands in glee when I saw you were reacting to this. Die Antwoord always set out to shock. Made some great tunes in the process. Yes they were in Chappie. Some of their songs were used in the soundtrack too.
I've loved this group since first hearing them about ten or 15 years ago. So crazy talented, so crazy weird, such great beats and their I don't give a f**k attitude is awesome. They work hard for their live performances. Please react to more Die Antwoord
There is something about this band. They find a hook and repeat it to death, but they are fun, and more than a little naughty. And that girl ... everyone's guilty crush.
So many videos to catch up on, so searching before offering suggestions. Couldn't believe it when "Antwoord" got a hit. :-) Still regret missing their Toronto show several years ago. They performed this on David Letterman, search for it "Die Antwoord - I Fink U Freeky (Live on Letterman)". So good!!
hahahha...amazingly beautiful how she's enjoying it and he is like _why am I looking at this!?_ ...Die Antwoord; you love it or hate it, there are no middle terms 🤩
Been waiting for someone to be brave enough to do a Die Antwoord reaction. Now we need you to listen to Baby's on Fire, Cookie Thumper, and Gucci Coochie.
They have a stage persona that’s totally different than rl. The eye lenses, messed up makeup all comes off. I’ve heard she’s a sweetie. But I’ve also seen em being pretty rotten. Still catchy stuff. Now I wanna hear a little more before I go back to my regularly scheduled day, lol!!!
I look forward to hearing “Welcome to our channel” more than the reactions sometimes. That being said, I totally dig Die (Dee) Anrwoord. Love them. Just totally nuts trying to describe what’s going on.
I wish that Ninja and Yolandi weren't such awful humans in real life, because Die Antwoord's music is AMAZING. I recommend checking out "Banana Brain" and "Fatty Boom Boom"
They were asked to support Lady Gaga on tour and they took offence saying they headline and don’t support. They made the track Fatty Boom Boom, which is almost iconic (and totally awesome) that really disses Lady Gaga 😂 It’s played about 100 times in the video game Far Cry: New Dawn.
The "Fatty Boom Boom" video is equal parts: surrealism, rapid-eye nightmare vision, tribalist ritual, and low budget horror film. IOW, it's a must-see. 🤓
always hilarious to see reactions to Die Antwoord from those who have never heard of them or seen them...bit of shock value for sure but the songs are catchy
Impressed you took this on. A lot of performance art involved. They kind of remind me of what you see in post apocalypse films. Not my thing really but a group I check on periodically to see what they are up to.
These guys make me both proud and ashamed to be South African haha. The name, pronounced "dee" antword, means "the answer" in Afrikaans. Would love you guys to do "Enter the ninja", "Fatty Boom Boom" and "Evil Boy"
They are from Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa. Having traveled down there three years ago, I can say that i'm not shocked they are from such an odd place. Apartheid policies ruled South African politics from 1948 to 1994 and a bunch of crazy chaos after that up until today, Die Antwoord seem to embody all of that chaos. They flip between English and Afrikaans in a lot of their tracks. I read somewhere that they left Los Angeles and moved back to South Africa because everything was too clean and settled in America or something to that effect. Strangely i'm not a big fan but find them interesting enough to know that much about them. But one thing I know is that South Africa had an interesting punk rock and artistic indie music scene through the 1970s and 1980s, Apartheid censors and policies prevented a lot of that from reaching beyond the country's borders. I met the guitarist from the band Suck while I was there, he owns a brewery now. They were big in SA in the early 70s but he said they were constantly threatened by the police and the military so they called it quits. Suck recorded one record and EMI Records in England was interested in putting it out but they split. Another good band was punk band Wild Youth of out Durban in the late 70s. They had the same problem, conservative Apartheid censors and problems with police. National Wake out of Johannesburg were another, they were a mixed-race band which wasn't really allowed under Apartheid.
Ninja and Yolandi are married... and they STARRED in the movie District 9 Oh theyre South African and speak in multiple slang languages from that country.
They always get that same reaction. Yes the videos are exceptionally weird but the music itself is catchy as hell. Other really good tracks are "Fatty Boom Boom","Baby's on Fire",& "Cookie Thumper"
Die Antwoord member Ninja has been accused of sexual assault on numerous occasions. They’re also open homophobic, can we maybe not give them a platform? Love your videos btw.
They have some really good stuff. All their videos are weird and makes me think South Africa is some decaying Mad Max scene. On the flip side, they are terrible human beings that have gotten into their share of controversies.
Die Antwoord having exactly the usual effect - a mixture of disgust and fascination. Brad's face!!!!
There's probably a German word for that exact effect. Or maybe the French: macabre?
Lmao i was dying watching his face
Face frozen in time.
Die Antwoord is the perfect group to listen to while wearing a Britney Spears t-shirt :)
Fatty Boom Boom next. Keep in mind these are 100% committed performance artists. They are also really talented musicians, but the art/shock value comes first. I'm pretty sure they are actually sociopaths as well.
@@robertwilson2007 it's just art bro
Nah they adopted one of the kids in this video and neglected him.
Fatty Boom Boom is great for Americans to react to. Not easy to decode, though. ;-)
Ya- a bunch of drama with them unfortunately but damn they were great performance artists.
Their faces 😂 ... Lex basically said it reminds her of having a unkempt pet 🤣 ...
I love die antwoord... Unapologetically weird af. And their beats are sick
Do some research on how they abused there adopted son it's lame
@@awakeforever and trafficked Zheani
@@awakeforever What they do
they're also disgusting people. Look up Die Antwoord tokkie accusation.
@@awakeforever So what? You abused the English language by not knowing how to use the word “their” 😂
As a South African it's like feeling proud and embarrassed at the same time.
Shit, As an American, I feel like that every day. Welcome to the club.
lol
@@donalucino7401 lol

You get around.😆
Lex is my spirit animal!!!! I need a Lex in my life! Loves all music and that smile ❤
I've seen them twice live and always a good time!! They have SO many other good songs too- they're definitely .. unique

Awesome! I have dropped Die Antwoord in the comments several times. Thanks for doing this, and thanks to whoever may have suggested it.
Chappie was my intro to them and I ended up falling down that rabbit hole. Such a cool group and GREAT in concert
Brad you're a patient man you can tell how much he loves lex putting up with this s***
You have got to do more Die Antwoord! It is mental!
I've loved this group since first hearing them about ten or 15 years ago.
So crazy talented, so crazy weird, such great beats and their I don't give a f**k attitude is awesome. They work hard for their live performances.
Please react to more Die Antwoord
Keep in mind they are fucking garbage humans though.
@@runthemeows1197 ---- why do you say that? What makes them garbage? I know nothing about them as people.
There is something about this band. They find a hook and repeat it to death, but they are fun, and more than a little naughty. And that girl ... everyone's guilty crush.
I feel no guilt for crushing on Yolandi.
Why guilty?
She might be cute, but I can't with that hair man. I just can't lol
Their two faces pretty much sum up just about every reaction of anyone that hears it for the first time 😂
This changed everything. Gave me courage to keep living. Yolandi forever
These guys are so weird but something kinda catchy about them too 🤣
So weird. Much sexual assault, child slave / trafficking, racism, homophobia and the list goes on. A pair of tools really.
@@roundroundhere711 yeah I don't know all that. I know this song, and chappie.
They have many amazingly creative videos.
"Enter The Ninja," Brad! You. Will. Dig it! 🤣👍
+1
Check their "Baby's on Fire" video - it's really fun.
I've been waiting for this 😂
They got about 6-7 good videos
How’s it going guys?
Merry Christmas to you both, & your families as well.
Have a safe & Happy Holiday season!!
Merry Christmas!! 👊🏾
Well, Brad....this video most definitely had many dance moves for you to pick up on 😆 🤣 😂 Love y'all from Washington State!!!!
Love this group so much different and creative . Deff have to watch more their videos are just out there and cool.
OMG, I love this group!
"Die (pronounced dee) Antwoord (pronounced auntvord)" is Dutch. It means "the answer."
It’s Afrikaans actually, which is derived from the Dutch language.
@@TheFairyintheFishBowl Closely related Germanic languages. In German, they'd be called 'Die Antwort'.
Love Die Antwoord. Check out Cookie Thumper or Fatty Boom Boom!!
FATTY BOOM BOOM
Both top tunes
their aesthetic and the videos are as important as their songs... art ambitions
Brad makin' that face I make every time I hear (see) Die Antwoord. I fear to watch, yet I cannot turn away.
Brad's face, permanent frown. Love it, this could be the start of an awesome rabbit hole and I am all for it!!!!!
South Africa straight up.
Very odd group, but very interesting. It's like techno punk with some rap to it. lol. Like the crazy side of Black Eyed Peas, M.I.A., Crystal Castles.
I love Die Antwoord. You should watch Ugly boy.
Obsessed I can’t believe this is ur first reaction to them!!!! Please do Ugly Boy!
I love how they look in shock and yet, start vibing slowly 😂
Fatty Boom Boom and Baby is on Fire two of my favorites.
So many videos to catch up on, so searching before offering suggestions. Couldn't believe it when "Antwoord" got a hit. :-) Still regret missing their Toronto show several years ago.
They performed this on David Letterman, search for it "Die Antwoord - I Fink U Freeky (Live on Letterman)". So good!!
1:42 the story of this channel.
Lex has a big old smile on her face, bopping her head, and Brad sits there with a WTF look on his face.
Lmao brads face throughout all of this i love it!
She knows it:)
Love their music. I've heard bad things about them in real life but no clue if that's true or not.
I have watched all their videos, and I am impressed with their talent. It was never playlist material, but it was enjoyable.
Same, I watch the videos, it's like performance art and I enjoy the music but I've never actually listened to them outside of UA-cam videos.
hahahha...amazingly beautiful how she's enjoying it and he is like _why am I looking at this!?_ ...Die Antwoord; you love it or hate it, there are no middle terms 🤩
More Die Antwoord; "baby's on fire" "Welcome to the Dark side.." "iki iki boom boom"....lots more🤘
Been waiting for someone to be brave enough to do a Die Antwoord reaction. Now we need you to listen to Baby's on Fire, Cookie Thumper, and Gucci Coochie.
+1 for Baby's on FIre
@@RSrunner88 no argument from me!

You definitely need to explore more Die Antwoord videos!

Especially after all the really messed up sexual abuse accusations.
@@robertwilson2007 exactly!
I was looking for these comments. Yes, a lot of ugliness has surfaced about them. First hand accounts, not just hearsay. Terrible!
Accusations no proof
@@kakarot4star aside from the video. Not everything's a conspiracy, smartass.
They were asked to support Lady Gaga on tour and they took offence saying they headline and don’t support. They made the track Fatty Boom Boom, which is almost iconic (and totally awesome) that really disses Lady Gaga 😂 It’s played about 100 times in the video game Far Cry: New Dawn.

Reacting to this in a Britney Spears Shirt is the reason i love UA-cam :)
(I haven't pressed play yet and i'm smiling already)
You guys should watch “Chappie”.. They were memorable in that sci-fi flick with a baddie Hugh Jackman..
Impressed you took this on. A lot of performance art involved. They kind of remind me of what you see in post apocalypse films. Not my thing really but a group I check on periodically to see what they are up to.
They have a LOT of bangers
they remind me of early 2000's rave music. Which i loved lol
Happy holidays guys, thank you for always making me smile!
🥴🥴🥴. 😆😅😂🤣 I had the same reaction....
Huzzah! I've been waiting and waiting and waiting for this!!
babys on fire is their funniest video

Aphex twin "come to daddy" is weird too lol
Die Antword is like a car crash- you can’t look away. Crazy but brilliant all at once.
i had been requesting this. not that i like them that much, i just wanted to see what you thought. they are freaky, freaky.
I was hoping they would vote for Die Antwoord "Cookie Thumper" lol
What a great Christmas song🤣🤣🤣🤩
They are seriously horrible people. Please so a deep dive into them and what they did to the kids they adopted then dumped. It's horrifying.
These guys are BIZARRE. And excellent. Should defs try more of them.
South African’s pride 😂

Fatty Boom Boom

Banana brain
Baby's on fire

Thanks for doing this one!
Die Antwoord are awesome!
"And the teeth were all pointy." LOLOL
They have a bunch of videos that are well worth watching. Just go for the fun factor!
Hahaha your faces are cracking me up 😅
I don’t know why this song is so oddly addictive and appealing
Saw these guys live on a bit of a whim... one of the most banging party's ever.
I love their video "Baby's On Fire". That was the first song I heard of them.
Seriously quality music!
You guys really need to do Fatty Boom Boom - wicked beats and one of the greatest music vids in history!!
This is the one: ua-cam.com/video/AIXUgtNC4Kc/v-deo.html
Rarely have I clicked this fast. :)
Love her reaction
Hilarious to watch you guys watch them. 😂
FINALLY!!! We want more Die AntWeird! Do Fatty Boom Boom next!!!
I remember finding this. Then I had to listen to more. It's freeky alright. But I couldn't stop listening.
Keep exploring them. No one is like them, obviously.
Die Antwoord member Ninja has been accused of sexual assault on numerous occasions. They’re also open homophobic, can we maybe not give them a platform? Love your videos btw.
Yea, i actually deleted all my reactions after i found out what kind of people they are.
This band is crazy.
the best thing about this was they used the prodigy as the music for their song
