The version below was rejected by the art directors near to completion. My approach was to first create an immediately striking image, and secondly show Yolandi and Ninja as yin to yang, contrary but complementary forces. However, given Die Antwoord hail from South Africa, a country with a still-recent history of apartheid, the ADs had concerns this may be misinterpreted or connote blackface. Especially as Ninja is a white male who spits rhymes.

I certainly appreciate caution on the part of any publisher. The colour scheme was reworked, the yin and yang idea still represented by the rendering of each artist's mic a solid black and white respectively.
