    That's f---ing stupid, actually.



    Isn't there anyone who listens to this s--- before it comes out or couldn't he come up with a different line?

    To be fair, I am South African, and who gives a flying f---? An American trying to speak or pronounce Afrikaans words is a big ask irrespective.

    Why so anal?

    The name means "the answer" - so it's not about something dying. Just "d". It's fine if some random fan, or some random reporter, mispronounces the name. h---, it's even completely fine for Eminem to mispronounce it in an interview. But he's doing that in a song and makes a rhyme with it. Seems kind of amateurish to mention a rap band out on a track that you record for your album, but mispronounce it there.

    They had time to look that up and dozens of people must have listened to it before it was released.
