I think it’s “jirre my flow’s hot”, not “here’s my flow hot”. What’s jirre mean?

Thanks for your translation… I could figure out some things from context, but some things I literally couldn’t even tell what sounds he was making, let alone what they meant.

Peace.

there is some messed up lyrics

here is the actual lyrics and i marked the needed to be corrected with asterisks
*but ive never got nothin in my hand*

don’t play with me, I work my mic-saber
like a wild fuckin savage from the dark side: danger!
Yin to the yang, totally hi-tek, ninja’s motherfuckin
big in japan, I seen the future,
*but right now I got nothing in my hand*
except a microphone, big dreams and a plan, fly-talking, sky-walking
like a ninja

No worries. We use Arras Theme, (http://www.arrastheme.com/) it’s free and its highly customizable. I’ve noticed a few other places using it as well, or emulating it. It takes quite a bit of time to set up and you’ll have to beat your head against it thoroughly before it does what you want, but no special php knowledge is really necessary. Give us a shout if you need a hand with anything. Between Kyle Ex and myself we’ve pretty much figured out all its quirks.

Zef is a complex thing tbh.

They look the the guy in the vid. They drink a lot, and they buy cheap cars, and attempt to soup them up. They like streetracing, so this, combined with the crappy cars sort of remind of box-car racing (redneck) vibes…

It’s a lot like rednecks basically, but with a south-african flavor.

In much the same way americans make fun of rednecks sometimes, we do the same thing over here. And we have been laughing at these guys for a very long time now. We adopt some of thier slang, because it is hilarious. When we see some nice zeff, we take photies with our cellphones and send them to our buddies. Sort of like trophies. When you see a lekker sopped op (nicely souped up) car, you do the same.

In this way, zeff has built up a strange cult following over the years. This is the main reason shit like this exists as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpLghAaRuLI

So, basically, if you have not been following the while zeff thing, it’s sort have hard to get up to speed. But youll get there.

Yeah, thanks – we translated it generally for our overseas audience. It’s not exact, but the idea was for people to get the idea…

Yeah I’ve also seen that interview. There’s lots of ways to interpret it, but good point – it is more about a style than anything else.

You oaks are wrong with the Zef translation, Zef is style, a little bit like swagger in a way. I saw an interview with Ninja and Yolandie.
