Nelson Mandela, 1918-2013

So what’s the ETA on the BoingBoing / Die Antwoord crossover commemorative music video with special guest appearances by Jack Parow and Van Coke Kartel? :smile:

(In all seriousness, though, is it weird that I’m kind of happy that aside from this story, the most internationally noteworthy thing about present-day South Africa is its bizarre music scene? It’s as if merely by existing, zef culture speaks to the fact that darker times have been left in the past - that the present is so [relatively at least] placid and peaceful that the biggest news coming out of what was once one of the most tumultuous places in the world is the international response to a handful of bizarre and surreal musicians just being weird and creative.)
