Anri du Toit (born 3 March 1984), known professionally as Yolandi Visser (stylised as ¥o-Landi Vi$$er),[2] is a South African singer, rapper, and songwriter.

[5][6] Growing up, she has said she felt like she did not fit in or belong anywhere, and describes herself as 'a little punk' who frequently got into fistfights, and listened to the music of Nirvana, PJ Harvey, Nine Inch Nails, Cypress Hill, Eminem, Marilyn Manson and Aphex Twin.

[4][7] At the age of 16, du Toit was sent to Pretoria to attend Die Hoërskool Menlopark, a boarding school which was nine hours away from her family's home.

[4] Du Toit does not know anything about her biological parents, besides the fact that her mother was classified as white, and questioned her ethnicity after a portrait artist "specializing in identifying genetic history" told her she has "a facial structure similar to coloureds."

Visser initially thought she was white, but speculated that because she was born during apartheid, that her father may have been Black, and that her mother had been forced to give her up for adoption, as sexual relations between different racial groups were illegal in 1984.

[7] Du Toit was asked by Watkin Tudor Jones (aka "Ninja") to lend vocals for his project The Constructus Corporation.

[9] Du Toit was a member of the South African 'corporate' hip-hop group MaxNormal.TV, in which she played the role of Max Normal's personal assistant.

[11] A DVD featuring 13 skits, music videos and short films was released in the same year, titled Goeie Morge Zuid Afrika.

[19] In 2019, a video from 2012 surfaced, showing Tudor Jones and Visser fighting and hurling homophobic slurs against Andy Butler, founder of the American dance project Hercules and Love Affair.
