Die Antwoord have cut the ribbon on Tommy Can't Sleep, a creepy-as-fuck short film starring their daughter Sixteen Jones.
The South African rap gang's ¥o-landi Vi$$er directs the surrealist clip, which is shot in black and white and features cameos from Ho99o9, God, and more. A pretty-much-unrecognisable Jack Black stars as Big Tommy, with Liz Carey as Mom. Art direction comes from Roger Ballen and music is by The Black Goat.
In May the group unveiled "Love Drug", a single from - apparently - their last-ever record The Book of Zef, which is out in September.
Their previous record, Mount Ninji and Da Nice Time Kid, came out last year.
