KURT DARREN RELEASES ‘6 7’
On Wednesday, Kurt Darren released 6 7 via streaming platforms.
The English song featured lyrics like:
Riding with my baby in a 4×4
Those long days and those nights
Get lost, start a fire
Nothing better than this small-town life
The song has already received a wave of bad reviews from the public.
Under the audio clip were comments like:
“I’m jealous of the man I was before I listened to this”
“Can I give you 6 or 7 punches, please?”
“I enjoyed this more with the sound off”
“Trump should play this in Iran to force a surrender”
‘IT’S NOT A GIMMICK’
In various media interviews, Kurt Darren has labelled 6 7 a “feel-good nostalgic song”.
The Afrikaans singer claimed the song – inspired by his kids, and hated by parents and teachers – was actually about a road trip.
He told The Expresso Show: “Not a gimmick…I’m having fun in my career”
“Imagine if every song I made was the same…another Kaptein”.
Speaking to Jacaranda FM, Kurt Darren defended his song against the backlash.
He said: “I don’t sing about alcohol and parties… it’s just good, clean fun. I’m not out there to hurt anyone. If people have fun with my songs, it’s all good”.
