DIE ANTWOORD have successfully shocked to impress with their latest music video, ‘Fatty Boom Boom’. I am visually amazed and amused by this spoof that mixes myths and realities about South Africa. The main character is Lady Gaga (well, a cross-dressing version of her) who, during her adventures in our concrete jungle, gets a prawn extracted from her vagina (yep, crabs is old school) and mauled by a lion who was undoubtedly attracted to the meat dress she (he) is wearing.
Ninja and Yolandi Vi$$er (who looks good in black skin here), the band members, may not have made me think as they did with ‘Umshini Wam’ but i do love parody. Importantly, however, they are not being musically as inventive as they were with ‘Enter the Ninja’ or ‘Tik Tik Tik’ (the latter performed in their previous incarnation, Max Normal TV). ‘Fatty Boom Boom’ is, simply, an awful song!
To their credit, if their main goal was to get Lady Gaga’s attention, or attention for themselves, then they succeeded. Surprisingly, she tweeted: “i fink u freaky but you don’t have a hit. hundred thousand tickets sold in SA. #thatsmyshit… i guess its not a good idea to tell someone you’re a fan. never mind! we get it, you’re not a little monster.”
Maybe the biggest joke played by DIE ANTWOORD is fans, on both sides, taking this seriously. Anyways, you tell me what you think after watching this:
