Die Antwoord - Evil Boy
Maybe it was just me, but did anyone else find that creepy chick oddly arousing. She's not attractive in any sense of the word, but you know you would fuck her at least once since you know that she would do something unusual, something either insanely pleasurable or painful, but most likely both, and most likely, would never do again.

This actually isn't that different from your typical RnB trash. The main differences being a guy covered in shit and a chick with no nipples. There's dicks everywhere and that's just fucking typical.
So, the story behind this video and song (or part of the story -- there's so much going on!) is that Wanga felt that he was being coerced into a form of ritual circumcision by his community. It's sort of taken for granted within his ethnic group that you must do this, so much so that if you are a young man and you do not participate, you are ostracized, as the band explained to me.
The thinking, and this is communicated very directly to the young men, is that if you don't participate, you're gay. You're effeminate. You're not a real man. You never mature from being a boy to being a man.
He struggled with all of this in real life: with what it meant for his personal and cultural identity. And he came to a point where he was like, you know what? Fuck you all. The fact that I won't consent to having my penis sliced with an unsterilized knife, out in the bush, and risk infection or worse-- that doesn't mean "I'm gay," as you say. I reject this tradition. If that's what being a man is, fuck it, I don't want to be a man. I'll be an "evil boy for life," even if it means I am ostracized from my community.
You might have chosen different lyrics, but dude, it's not our story or our culture or our world experience at all.
It's his.

I've heard men say that about that girl before and I just do not see it. I'm not a man, though.
at least for the story
I heard these guys for the first time last month...I'm really not a fan but I dunno to each it's own. They're actually playing here in DC at the end of October...my buddy really wants me to come with him to see the show...don't know how into it I would be though...

Boobs with no nipples? I don't think it will catch on.
I prefer Enter the Ninja with the little retarded dude.

I thought the nipples were eyes?
Wasn't that weird little guy Tuffy's avatar for a while?
I never would have known of Die Antwoord if it hadn't been for Ted and the cult.
Thanks.
I think that "little retarded dude" is the oldest surviving person with progeria.

From wiki:
The "Enter The Ninja" video also features Leon Botha, a prominent Cape Town artist who is one of the world's oldest survivors of progeria.[8]
I am facebook friends with Yoi-Landi.
This is why we can't have nice things.
What the fuck was that?
