Someone asked him to post links Fangle. But he definitely has a bee in his bonnet about Afrikaans music. Music that's not in English or when it is it's not sung by someone who grew up speaking English. Afrikaans music was never meant for an international market, never will be. How meany Norwegian singers are in the world top 20 or Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese fokon Mexican. If they make music in their native language it's probably not meant for the whole world.

Of course he does and you are right for some mucic in another language will always be shit. A song consists of lyrics and melody so if you don't understand the language half thew appeal may be lost. Still waiting for his quality NZ productions though..................

It’s not about top of the charts. There is quality traditional Portuguese, Mexican and Japanese music. Afrikaans has a soft porn vibe to it.

Great talent around the world (except for NZ it seems) but we tend to see just the English shit on the international stage. I remember the world idols competition when all the winners of different countries competed. A guy from Norway (I think) won. Kelly Clarkson was second and SA's Heinz Winckler (yes, an Afrikaans singer Mr. Bungle) was fourth. Winckler is not even one of our top Afrkaans singers.

It’s fitting that the C grade music is matched by the C grade video production. It’s incredible how far behind you are in quality of music and production values from a tiny country like NZ. That song is 10 years old, but the video makes it seem like the 80s.

Seriously, I think it's a pile of steaming kak. I agree with you, need some Maori music to up the ante. I only know one Maori song, it was on a 1995 RWC CD. It goes something like: hurry hurry hoo, hurry hurry hurry haaaaaa.... I think it's a Maori love song.

Mr Bungle. Some of my fellow countrymen have a shitty taste in music, but I feel it as a tad bit disrespectful of you to look down on them. Yes, it sounds like a cat being strangled with a techno beat, and yes the videos contain guys with no rhythm and extremely questionable hairstyles, but they are a part of of South African culture. What will America be without it's hillbillies? South Africa without it's kommin people, will just not be South Africa. Shame on you, sir.

On Kurt Darren : his songs are mostly kak, but people in SA love it, so he won't change a thing. He is laughing all the way to the bank.
