Die Antwoord
Die Antwoord (pronounced [di ˈɐntvoərt], Afrikaans for “The Answer”) is a South African rap group formed in Cape Town in 2008. The group was formed by rappers Ninja and Visser, and producer God (formerly referred to as DJ Hi-Tek).

After briefly signing with Interscope Records, in 2011 they founded their own label Zef Recordz, and released their second and third studio albums, Ten$Ion (2012) and Donker Mag (2014).
