Sixteen Jones is a rather odd name, but something is to be expected from the band known for their unconventional acts and music videos, Die Antwoord. They are known for their song, Enter the Ninja and for their seemingly odd musical style and style. Sixteen made her media debut with her parents’ music video Je Fink U Freeky when she was seven years old.
In case you were wondering what role she played, she’s that little girl with the snake around her neck who fed the tabloids with lots of people discussing Yolandi and Ninja’s parenting ability.
In any case, Sixteen Jones is no longer that daughter of Seven. She has evolved into her own person and is also making waves like her colleagues in the music industry. She is a singer, songwriter and band member.
Sixteen Jones Biography (Age)
She was born on January 15, 2006 in South Africa. As previously mentioned, she is the only child of Ninja (Watkin Tudor Jones) and Yolandi Visser of Die Antwoord. His grandfather is Ben du Toit. She has an adopted brother, Tokkie Jones.
Through her parents’ involvement in the music industry, she made an appearance in the music video for Je Fink U Freeky when she was seven, but is now making leaps and bounds in it. Sixteen made vocal appearances in several of her parents’ tracks, making her the next big thing to watch.
Looking after her parents in so many aspects, like adopting her mother’s fashion traits and making funny faces like her father, she is also a member of a group. The group is called “The boy with the rainbow face” and the other member is the daughter of Flea (the bassist of the American group The Red Hot Chilli Peppers), Sunny. While Sunny is the band’s vocalist, Sixteen Jones backs her up and writes the band’s songs.
His parents: Die Antwoord (Yolandi Visser and Watkin Tudor Jones)
Die Antwoord which, when translated, means “The Answer” in Afrikaans is not the name of a person but rather of a rap-rave group. It was formed in Cape Town, South Africa in 2008 and features three characters, two singers and their producer. The band’s vocalist is Yolandi Visser, while rapper Watkin Tudor Jones, better known by his stage name Ninja, and producer DJ Hi-Tek (Justin de Nobrega) complete the trio.
Their music is more out of the norm in the hip-hop genre. They incorporate elements of zef culture (a South African counter-culture movement) into their musical and visual style. The culture appropriates outdated and discarded cultural elements and has been described as modern and sly.
They may not be as numerous as other hip-hop groups, but their unique style has helped set them apart. The style is exemplified by their music videos and involves alternating high Yolandi rhymes and Ninja swagger. Their characteristic accent also plays an important role in the fact that their lyrics are in Afrikaans, Xhosa and English.
The group, which can be considered a success, has released two EPs, a mixtape and five studio albums including $O$ (2009), Ten$Ion (2012), Donker Mag (2014), Mount Ninji and da Nice Time Kid (2016), and The Book of Zef (2017).
After talking about the South African hip-hop group, the two main members have a relationship that goes beyond music. They fell in love and had their daughter, sixteen.
Yolandi was born as Anri du Toit on December 1, 1984, in Port Alfred, a small town on the east coast of South Africa and Ninja was born on September 26, 1974. The duo met in Le Cap and was bound by his love for music. Apart from music, Yolandi is also known for her outrageous and provocative fashion choices.
