A very interesting group. They are a south african rap/rave group. Their members consist of
Ninja
Yo-Landi Vi$$er, DJ Hi-Tek. Their lyrics are performed in Afrikaans, Xhosa, and English. They produce numerous music videos, and video projects. I've heard that they are quite amazing live, but I have not had the chance to go to a show. They are very controversial, and often do things to get a shock value out of them. Famously, they have a controversy with American pop star, Lady Gaga, where in their video "Fatty Boom Boom" they made an obscene reference to her. (seen in the second video below). Also, the use of "black face" or what may be seen as that, has brought them alot of negative attention. They have countered by stating that they used full body white paint as well.
Seen in the 3rd video is their response to "Fatty Boom Boom"'s negative criticism.
