A South African group Die Antwoord, which in Afrikaans means ‘the answer’, began their international career almost immediately after the recording of their first album $O$ (2009). The music they perform, defined by them as ‘zef style’, is a mix of rave and rap juxtaposed with the overwhelming visuality of their videos.1 The phenomenon of their rapid popularity seems to be the result of a striking contrast provided by their street music and the sophisticated visual brut aesthetics that is inspired by the most prominent contemporary African artists.
