Kwaicore Kwaicore Kwaicore Kwaicore

There are people on this mission who think that this trick works?? Well maybe it does, but for those of you are more interested in actually getting to the top on your own, then here we are.

I recently saw a Kwaicore blog explaining what not to do at a Kwaicore concert. Firstly, there are no such things; underground music is genuinely good sometimes, also original. There is no reason to have to force together two genres that probably hate each other anyway. Imagine; a heavy rocker almost booty hopping his way across the stage! Beyonce would not be proud.

So keep your mullets (go Alberton whoo) and if you seriously want to go as far as the heels all you "Braai-yanston" girlies, by all means do so.

On the other hand, those all stars your brother gave you, I knew you didn't want to slather them in pleather and fix it up with your Spar Charcoal for eye liner. There's no need to get rid of that overall you wash every weekend with Jik to give it that old school feel.

Kwaito (kangaroos?), Hardcore Punk (people?), don't lose touch with your true selves; fist pump the shit out of your favourite (can I call it a song?) when your head banging causes your head to bang. Shake and booty hop and look like you are having an epileptic fit whilst standing and do it well because you can!!

"Music of the townships"; The intro to Kwaicore

You may not know what the townships actually are, but don't be fooled; there are actually people out there who do buy expensive clothing and shoes only to dance around a fire to burn these items. Now whilst this ritual may seem positively stupid, it's the music they dance to that I'm going to talk about; Kwaito. 

Arthur Mafokate, the Britney Spears or the Elvis of Kwaito, describes the relationship between Kwaito and gangsterism as music revolving around ghetto life. To me, its the most ironic or contradictory form of music ever, the name being derived from the Afrikaans word for angry ("Kwaai") and then it being used post-apartheid as a way of the ghetto, because apparently them being oppressed was not enough credit. If you read what other people have to say about Kwaito, the believe it's the ghetto way of saying "house music". So let's just 'ghetto' everything because we can.

Alright, so moving on from the fact that kwaito is the music of "rebelling" and "renaming", I have a few examples i thought I'd share with you as I need to get those of you who have "never" (you have, you just didn't acknowledge) heard.

DJ Cleo's Kwaito

Is Kwaito not just house music?? Then what is house music??

Why would you want to superimpose this onto SlipKnots Duality??

Let me know what you think
