Some days you just stumble accidentally over new (at least new to you) music that really makes you think. Rapper/Performance artist Watkin Jones from South Africa has always produced music that challenges the listener, and none more so than the music he produces in his latest incarnation as Ninja of the band Die Antwoord. Their hit
Enter the Ninja is a pretty representative sampling of what Die Antwoord is all about. It is confrontational, usually offensive, often ugly. But at its best, their music compels the listener to really consider their commentary on the modern world from a multi-linqual, multi-cultural, and multi-racial South African perspective.
