Sorry boet...we all make blunders so don't let this one trouble you too much.

Evident that for more than 20 years he been smoking ignorance

KurtOfficial Kurt, don't be so hard on yourself, after all, it just shows that you human too. We all have off days and how we handle it is what makes us at the end of the day. My motto in life: We fall, we get up, dust ourselves off and try again. We human and we make mistakes

Not so bad, honest mistake. But he need to learn it

Does steve_hofmeyr know how to sing South African national anthem? I'm not talking about Die Stem KurtDarren

Was he not a 'judge' on Idols at some stage? I rest my case!!!

Too much for him

You will crack when you hear what some South-Africans sing when it comes to the afrikaans part of the anthem!!!

People will act like it's a race thing. The country always freaks out when someone messes up the national anthem. They did with Rebecca and that Ras Dumisani dude

Time for a name change to KAK DARREN.

When you didn't study but write the test anyway 🙄

Aasrggh shame uzamile

Part of me forgives him, but a well know musician should know the anthem. I can't sing the Afrikaans part of the anthem

Leave the poor guy alone... How many of y'all purposely blunder that Afrikaans part with your gegepertez😂🤣😂

Akashiswe😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Nice one Kurt

My fok Kurt

One of the reasons of ignorance and undermining our democracy and the country as a whole. How can you expect us to sing die stem if you can't sing in our sesotho?

25 bladdy years and he still doesn't know the national anthem, disgusting sies😷

Him and Ras Dumisani Same WhatsApp Group

a disgrace to humanity!

Did he only arrive in SA last week?

Elke outjie het 'n foutjie.

He should never sing the anthem ever again this guy

He didn't blunder, he purposely messed up. it's not like he forgot, he didn't know it.

Blunder you say?

HRW calls for arrests after attacks on foreign natioanlsThe Human Rights Watch urged South African authorities to prosecute the perpetrators of deadly xenophobic violence. To me it appears like SA leadership enjoys to see foreigners being attacked and killed. Their stuff looted. They do nothing about it. They must just come clean n say everyone with a foreign background leave SA weather documented or not. It's sad bcz black South Africans only attack black foreigners n mainly their neighbors n politicians are using foreigners as a campaign tool. SA poverty was not brought by foreigners. Don't use foreigners as a scapegoat to cover mismanagement of the economy. SA is producing graduates every year and no jobs. So the graduates want to work in farms n as hse keepers bcz the are the easily available jobs. Chinese are taking over n enriching their country n that is fine bcz they have a light skin. It's shame hw black think.
