Video: BLK JKS, “Molalatadi”

December 14, 2009


As World Cup 2010 approaches, we're getting more and more excited for all the disparate soccer hooligans of the globe to get a taste of South African culture, even if it is only in between drunken brawls. While FIFA may have chosen a Canadian-Somalian's song as the theme for the World Cup trophy tour leading up to the tournament, we're here to fully back BLK JKS for the actual anthem and "Molalatadi" wouldn't be a terrible choice if they can't jam a brand new original. The song finally got a video, directed by Jamie James-Medina, which cuts scenes of the band chilling in Coney Island with clips from James-Medina and Matthew Salacuse's South African train surfing documentary from last year, though ghostriding the metro will probably be discouraged during the festivities.
