(echoing) - this is the sickest of the sickest i've seen. - that was brutal, but very creative. - gotta give them a for thinking of some really amazing crap that i've never seen before. - that is weird! what is it? (movie reel clicks)
- (finebros) okay, so whatdid you think about the videos you just experienced?- well, it's very interesting. it's very creative. - visually, they're wonderful. the music, it's awful. - that was disgusting. there's no redeeming quality to it. - somebody put a lot of time, money, and effort behind being as extreme as they possible could,
which i thought was such an effort that it went way over the topand subsequently became incredibly boring. - i think when we do stuff like this for the public to see, it shouldn't be as crazy because you gotta think about the young people and what they look at,and what they see. - it's very extreme. it's something like i've never seen before. - (finebros) well, this was the musical artist die antwoord, which is afrikaans for "the answer."
they're a south african rap/rave group.- oh, okay. - i knew of rap.what's rap/rave? like when you combine rap and rave? - (finebros) some people have wonderedif their music and videos are a joke or a hoax because it's so extreme. what do you think?- what do i think it is? i think it's obviously tryingto tell a story. i don't think it's an entire hoax. - extreme on purpose.extreme sells.
i mean, they're looking for a niche. they're looking to make a namefor themselves. - i don't know and i don't care. um, it's just not something i would ever listen to, especially listen to or watch again. - (finebros) one of die antwoord's lead musicians, ninja, has said that he sees their workas an exaggerated experience. he says "people are unconsciousand you have to use your art as a shock machine to wake them up."
do you find any truth to that statement?- i wouldn't go that far. - no, that's not gonna wake anybody up. it's just gonna make 'em disgusted. - yes, people need to wake up but i'm not worried about themwaking up to this kind of music. i'm worried about them waking upto the political situation and all different situationswe need to actually work on and make better for people. but this, no.
- people are sitting back. there's wars here, there's war there,and we don't think about it. we just go with our daily live,so maybe that is a good way to wake people up and make themat least think about what's going on in the world. - (finebros) the band has saidthat their style incorporates elements of zef culture,which is an afrikaans slang word, and the band describes it as "you're poor, but you're fancy," that you don't care what anyone else thinks of you.
after hearing this, can you see how this type of culture was represented in their videos?- definitely. - yeah, they certainly don't care what people think of 'em. - no, i think they cared deeply about what people think. or why would they have goneto that kind of effort? that's a lot of production! - i don't know enough about their culture to tell you that. i can see the shock value,but i don't see the interpretation of the culture.
- (finebros) well, the band has a cult-like following, with fans who praise the band for their creativity and originality. there are many fans who have even been inspired to become creative themselvesand have produced fan art of the band. what do you think about the band sparking creativity to people? - um, art's a wonderful thing. i'm a film school graduate,so art is just great. - it's very vivid and colorful. i guess you could get inspired by it. (laughing)
maybe i have to be younger to get inspired by it. - the younger kids and younger people have a visual and emotional attachmentto what they see. they can see somethingin it that i don't see, and obviously so. there's a difference in my culture and their culture and backgrounds. - you might inspire those people, but it's not inspiring them to anything good. creativity isn't always a good thing. i mean, i can show you 16 ways to set yourself on fire,
but that's not a good thing. - do i find this shocking?no, i find it stupid. (laughing) you know? but if other people find it inspiringand this is their muse, that's the beauty of music is there's gonna be something for absolutely everybody. - i hope it doesn't inspirenegative behavior. it's what i'm more worried about, which proves i'm an old person, you know?
i'm worried about "(sternly) now kids!" - (finebros) the band has a new album coming out soon and they put out a teaser for their new music video recently. would you like to watch it?- oh, okay. - yes. (banging table)- bring it on, man. - (reluctantly) i don't think so. i want to sleep tonight! (laughing) - i have a feeling if i said no,it wouldn't make any difference
whether i wanted to watchthe goddamn thing or not. - (huskily) ♪ she gets everything she wants ♪ - that caught me. - but her eyes are incredible. other parts of her are incredible too, but (laughing). - ♪ she'll [bleep] your whole life ♪(childish giggle) ♪ with a little gucci coochie ♪(sensual moan) - what was that?! - that's it?
