Actually it should be "verwyder jouself polisiemotor"

There is also that silly joke about Bles Bridges and Ge Korsten starting a "underground band" called Guns and Roses...

It's like "die heuwels fantasties" Shouldn't it be, "die fantastiese heuwels"

And not to sound cynical but "die antwoord"...is this like jeopardy and we have to guess the question.

Yeah, it reminds me of "The Cure". Have you seen those guys?

I mean, if this is the cure, I'd hate to see the disease.

Nege duim spykers.... You think maybe they found out what the afrikaans means then translated into english? I mean they couldn't hardly call it the tiny willie collective...

compensating would explain a song like hurt so suppose its not impossible.

Gearhead

Ek like meer Rolklippe, Baiepaars, Looimotorballon, Blauw Broers, Room en Dun Lies.
