About
South African rave rap group Die Antwoord catapulted to overnight success when their edgy music video for 2010 single “Enter The Ninja” went viral. The video was perfect for viral success, looking like an punk art project, but it also had high-quality production, deft rapping and a highly danceable backing track. It's a mix that earned the band a growing cult following and propelled it to a pair of internationally acclaimed albums and concerts with sold out tickets around the world. On the 2013 European tour, the scene was somewhere between a hip-hop show, a rave and a gonzo comedy routine full of frenetic energy, intense dance music and lots of thrusting. On stage, Die Antwoord blasted through an hour and a half of music, including its latest, “Cookie Thumper!” The shows are a visual treat too, with the tattooed co-lead singer Ninja half-naked and wearing a mask fit for a horror movie villain and the other lead Yo-landi Vi$$er sporting bright pink hot pants and pitch-black contact lenses.
As the frontman for MaxNormal.TV and The Constructus Corporation, Ninja has been a member of the South African hip-hop scene for years, but he’s said that all of that was just preparation for the madness that is Die Antwoord. After the international viral success of “Enter The Ninja,” Die Antwoord decided to strike out on its own, independently releasing its 2011 sophomore album, "Ten$Ion," which debuted at No. 20 on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Chart and spawned the popular single “Fatty Boom Boom.” In 2013, they followed that up with “Cookie Thumper!," the first single off a third album called "Donker Mag." Die Antwoord's unique style and dynamic energy will continue to please new and old fans alike.

by ConnieServative on 9/5/17Bill Graham Civic Auditorium - San FranciscoHated Gucci Mann his new CD should be called Forever 81 trap, is crap. The DJ he used couldn't stop saying put your hands up to a crowd that wasn't putting their hands up.
Rating: 5 out of 5 Super-fun show, a little too short
by WhyTai on 9/5/17Bill Graham Civic Auditorium - San FranciscoAn extremely energetic and engaging show. We had a great night. Only things that weren't perfect were that the show was really short (didn't measure, but probably no more than 1.5 hours) and the sound wasn't great. I've seen the same show less than a year ago with much better sound. But I'll definitely go again every time they come by.
Rating: 2 out of 5 Good show, but very late and short.
by Anonymous on 9/5/17The Chelsea at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas - Las Vegas1h 30'' late. 1h 15'' duration. It's unacceptable.
Rating: 4 out of 5by Anonymous on 9/5/17Bill Graham Civic Auditorium - San Francisco Die Antwoord's performance was exactly what I expected: incredible! I expected that they would have great stage presence, which they did. I did not like the opening act Gucci Mane or his hype man at all. So I wish I would have arrived later and skipped that. Other than that, it was a great show. I liked that there was free water which you can't always find at concerts.

Rating: 1 out of 5 Die Antwoord great, Venue has many issues.
by dasmodul on 9/5/17Bill Graham Civic Auditorium - San FranciscoTerrible sound system. It is so loud, that even with earplugs the music is garbled. All you hear is over-the-top bass and unbearable treble. Even when there was no musik you couldn't understand a word that was being said through the mics because the volume is too loud. Venue has no A/C. It was 107 outside and sweltering inside.
Rating: 4 out of 5 Die antwoord is amazing
by bitterfly666 on 9/5/17Bill Graham Civic Auditorium - San FranciscoDieantwoord is who I went to see and they did not didappoint! I am not a rap fan so I cannot say I enjoyed Gucci mane. It was a rare heat wave the day we were in sf so it was 104 degrees in the city which made the arena really hot. We had seats and could not stop sweating the whole night! So over all, aside from being rediculously hot in the venue and not liking the opening band...die antwoord put on an amazing show!!!

by Intactivist on 9/5/17Bill Graham Civic Auditorium - San FranciscoDie Antwoord was engaging from beginning to end. So much energy and fun. Great responsive fun crowd too. They were just as entertaining as last year. The show started at 7:30 with two warm ups - a fine dj, then Gucci Mane rap which went on way to long and was not a overall crowed pleaser. Could just as well arrived at 9:30 when Die Antwoord took stage.
Rating: 5 out of 5by Selenec on 9/5/17Bill Graham Civic Auditorium - San Francisco Die Antwoord was very entertaining and gave a great performance. The "play" music at the beginning was lengthy and a bit boring but once the show started, it was great!
Rating: 2 out of 5 Not worth the money
by fyzikapan on 9/3/17Bill Graham Civic Auditorium - San FranciscoThe opening act started roughly on time. Unfortunately, there was a huge gap in between in which everyone mostly just mulled around drank for well over an hour. Now, on to the main performance. It was really, really awesome (horrible acoustics in the venue aside). Unfortunately, they performed for about 30-45 minutes and quit, and much of that was wasted with Ninja muttering something that no one could understand (again, horrible acoustics). All in all it was a gigantic waste of time and money. The only reason this isn't a one star review is that the few minutes they actually spent performing were really fun.

by Annabelle24 on 8/26/17The Chelsea at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas - Las VegasDie Antwoord is incredible live, this was my 2nd time seeing them at the Cosmo. The spring-loaded floor inside the Chelsea theatre was pumping with techno love and that added such a cool effect. I would reccomend both the venue and the band, ALWAYS! Thank you so much for the experience, Ninja and Yolandi! It was a great mix of old and new.

by aBlazeMonster on 8/26/17The Chelsea at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas - Las VegasAbsolutely crazy concert. Most of it is a blur because it was so very much fun! The whole auditorium jumped in unison. If you get the chance, GO SEE THEM!!!

by RoOsYaBoO on 8/26/17The Chelsea at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas - Las VegasInsanely amazing performance by Ninja, Yolandi, and Hi-Tek! could have been a little longer, but it was so intense that I felt like I had ran a marathon after. Very physical show for both the artists and the audience.
