De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig ("Kids These Days" lit.: The Youth of Nowadays) is a Dutch hip hop and R&B group based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, renowned for their musical approach of irreverent, humorous lyrics and electronic beats. Their humorous style is characterised by their frequent use of word play, lyrical flirting with languages other than Dutch and the propagating of neologisms, such as the word "watskeburt" (cf. the english wassup).
The group consists of Vieze Fur ("Dirty Fur", real name Freddie Tratlehner), also known as Vieze Freddie ("Dirty Freddie") and Baksteen ("Brick"), P. Fabergé (real name Pepijn Lanen), also known as P. Dronq, Faberge, Faber-yayo and Peppie, and Willie Wartaal (real name Ollicio Locadia, Wartaal means "gibberish" or "ravings", the name Willie Wartaal heavily resembles Willie Wortel, the Dutch name for Gyro Gearloose), also known as WiWa. Their producer is Bas Bron.
In the Netherlands they are known for their novelty hit single "Watskeburt?!". Released on May 16, 2005, it topped the Dutch Top 40 for several weeks that year. Their debut album Parels voor de Zwijnen ("Pearls for the swines") was released on September 30, 2005.
