“Johannesburg is about people. Cape Town is about place” was the parting shot of Hylton Appelbaum as the 44th birthday party of the Cape’s towering winemaker Karl Lambour broke up in the early hours of this morning. So where did that giant illuminated billboard of Ninja (front man of rof rappers Die Antwoord) on Kloof Street come from? Karl’s bash was held in suite 612, the penthouse of 15 on Orange and the nighttime skyline under Table Mountain was ruined by a scowling skollie who looks like an “after” ad for a harelip procedure.

As he tells the February edition of Rolling Stone magazine “fuck the no-game-having intellectuals out there… our style is straight up Malema versus Zuma… our shit is hostile-takeover shit. What the fuck are you going to do about it? Nothing!”

A question better directed at Cape Town Tourism. How can the city mothers let an aggressive ad for Scar Hair ruin the visual skyline of one of the world’s most beautiful cities? Tell Ninny to take his badass attitude back to Fietas or at least switch on the lights on the mountain to flood him out. This is Die Antwoord.
