Watch: New video featuring Die Antwoord, Diplo, insanity

There are some things I don't think I'll ever fully comprehend. Things like credit default swaps, Sarah Jessica Parker, and the new music video for Die Antwoord and Diplo's "Evil Boy" are simply too much for my once nimble mind to process.
Fortunately for my sake, the "Evil Boy" music video does try to clarify matters by inserting subtitles that highlight some of the song's key talking points, such as, "I'm not a gay, this penis is for the girls." Which is a reasonable, if not suspicious assertion. But then the video goes apeshit again when Die Antwoord's unreasonably named Yo-Landi Vi$$er goes topless and reveals that she has eyeballs on her breasts.
Also, some guy uses his own penis as a microphone. But I promise, no sentence I can type will adequately describe this video:

- "Whoa, spring fever! Looks like I got my solo libido back. For a while there it was gone and I was worried I'd never get it back."
- "Just because I'm cheating on you doesn't mean I don't love you. I do, more than I ever have."
- "It's been two months since our break-up and now I really need to have sex, but I can't stand the thought of some other guy touching me."

Does your music suck? If in doubt, dress and do "crazy" as much as possible...
I had a dream the other night that I was tripping with Bjork, Vanilla Ice, an albino and Caspar the Friendly Ghost in a sex shop on Easter Island. No, wait, that was this video.
Jesus. Fucking. Christ.
Fucking penises, how do they work?
I enjoy these guys best when I'm not aware of their lyrics and I don't listen to anything past the first verse in Beat Boy.
Die Antwoord makes me laugh SO hard, and they are SO terrifying, I just love them. They'll be in Detroit later this month, and the rag I write for is trying to arrange a video interview with them. Scared to death; can't wait. Remember, too, these are African artists. Things are...different there, especially where penises are concerned. Zef side fok ja.
Xeni Jardin over at BoingBoing has full lyrics posted as well as a decent discussion thread going. Wanga's verse, which seems homophobic at first blush, is a protest against ritual circumcision. Young men who refuse not recognized as adults and often accused of being homosexual. Hence his doubled claims "I am not gay" and "I don't want to be a man."
