Ninja and Yolandi share the stage with fellow South African rapper, Wanga as well as DJ Diplo in the new video. I learned from BongBoing.net (the blog that broke this amazing band) that the song is about Wanga's reluctance to follow his tribe's tradition of receiving a circumcision in his teenage years. In Wanga's world, rejection of the circumcision means being accused of not being a real man, and of being gay. Wanga struggled with this rejection from his community, but in the end came to the conclusion that he would not follow suit with what those around him considered masculinity...in essence, he would be an "evil boy for life."
Get the album...
