I reject your comparatively mundane 'Gaga' and present you instead with the Zef stylings of Die Antwoord.

In particular: The video forEvil Boy. Whoah.

It's about penises, as you can tell from all the penises in the video. (probably shouldn't be viewed in an area where people might object to a video containing penises. Or 'District 9' prawn arms.) In particular, it's got Xhosa rapper Wanga rapping against Xhosa ritual adult male circumcision.

boingboing has a post with the lyrics and some background (with boingboing's Xeni weighing in here)

and, from that hotspot for international rap culture, Mother Jones, an interview with 'Ninja' (as in 'Enter the Ninja", a previous track)
