Die Antwoord Aren’t Taking Eminem Mispronouncing Their Name Very Well [Videos]

Some might consider ending up on an Eminem track to be a badge of honour, but Die Antwoord were pretty miffed with how Shady said their band name.

I’m sure Die Antwoord are pretty fed up with folks around the world saying their name wrong, and their latest target is none other than Eminem.

In his new song, ‘Untouchable’, he makes mention of the duo. I suppose that’s quite a big deal, except that he totally fluffs how he pronounces their band name.

We will get to that later, but here are the lyrics:

“I’d rather hear ’em say ‘Die N-word’ than Die Antwoord / Ninja, now it’s better disguised banter.”

#Bantz.

Cue the response, with this video via Yolandi Visser’s Instagram (HERE):

And another of her Instagram posts (HERE) – some rude words coming at you below:

Something tells me Eminem isn’t going to be much bothered by all of this.

Here’s his latest track by the way, with the ‘Die Antwoord’ bit around the 2:50 mark:

A pretty poor effort on his part, and then a pretty bang average retort from Die Antwoord.

Is it Friday yet?
