“The history of South Africa is: Nelson Mandela, District 9, Die Antwoord”

Die Antwoord just dropped a new video. It is a remix of the MIMS track, “This is Why I’m Hot”. Within 24 hours, it has already clocked up more than 70 000 views on YouTube. The description under it reads: “a raw-ass lil home-made video we made on tour jus 4 fun.”
