BACK AND FREEKY - The World's most other-worldly hip hop act has returned. With just days until the long awaited TEN$ION album, South African hip hop act Die Antwoord have returned and the results are predictably inventive, in-your- face and about as good as anything we've heard in a good while. At the core of the band are the gifted and dynamic "Ninja" (Watkin Tudor Jones) and the darkly hypnotic Yo-Landi Vi$$er.
This act is about as dynamic as they come - and whether you can appreciate them or not, they're the driving force of a movement that is not just impacting hip hop - but impacting international sub-culture. This record is a powerful joyride and a worthy companion to Die Antwoord's 23-track "Old Testament" (their world debut)called $0$ and the formal debut of Jones' Ninja persona.
The 2/10 show at the Paradise in Boston is now sold out.
