Die Antwoord certainly has the answer when it comes to manifesting big dreams and goals.  This fringe South African band has now signed a record deal with Interscope amongst the stable of mega-stars – Black-eyed Peas and U2.   Due to an article on Boing Boing and some very clever social media marketing , in the space of 24 hours they’d become one of the most talked-about acts in ‘existence’.
With over 4 millions views for their Music Video Enter the Ninja, their crazy act has propelled them into the International Celebrity Spotlight.

What may seem like an ‘overnight’ success, has been many years of blood, sweat and tears in the making.   Many South Africans will remember Max Normal and front man Waddy who has now transformed himself into Ninja of Die Antwoord.   With over 15 years of work and slogging to turn his original creativity and  dreams into reality, the story of Die Antwoord is a clear lesson in the power of persistence, being authentic to who you are and being courageous enough to be in radical creative expression.
The Fairy Godmother salutes these crazy, but hugely inspirational fellow South Africans who have not been afraid to do what they believe in and follow their dreams.
