She's in blackface! How can one put out a video in 2012 in blackface?

The music sucks and so does ironic blackface.

There is no such thing as ironic blackface.

WAIT HOLD UP. Like so many other Die Antwoord videos, the visual references are ofte very WTF and decidedly south african (including mocking the world as to what outsiders may THINK is south african). There's panthers, lions and hyenas in this video, there's snakes and rats in their others, there's always at some point a prawn/grasshopper like a visual nod to District 9 and a comment of the townships/urban life in a world of change. Yolanda who has cats eyes and black skin is a panther, or panther/hyena hybrid with the lions mane of her hair here than anything else. They show humans without teeth, legs, in elephant mask and rat-coats otherwise, always saying "we are animals". They have black people, albinos and white people dancing around their videos. This is not your American blackface, and to project your cultural visual moral standard on the rest of the world is naive at best, culturally colonial at worst.

tl:dr - she's a panther, do'h.

WTF did I just see? She gives birth to a prawn!??

Trivia: Vagina Prawn scene based on 'Black Gynaecologist' by Anton Kannemeyer.

Her bright yello dress is made of Chappie wrappers too. That's a south african chewing gum.
