The story was quickly picked up by music news magazines, believing that there was a feud between Die Antwoord and Drake - whom they were currently touring with.

Ninja explained, "People are unconscious and you have to use your art as a shock machine to wake them up." They intend to shock and fascinate with their videos. It's all about changing identities - and authenticity doesn't matter as long as it's exciting. According to them, that's asking the wrong question.
