Die 'Dans Op Die Tafels'-sanger het ook Vrydag meer gedeel oor sy nuutste enkelsnit 'Wat My Pa Sou Sê'. "Almal is iemand se kind en om ‘n kind te wees is maar swaar. Jy is nuut in die wêreld. Jy weet nog niks. Dis hoekom as mens gelukkig genoeg is om ‘n Pa te hê jy na hom moet luister, want hy doen dit al ‘n bietjie langer as jy. Ha! As jy jonk is dink jy mos jou Pa verstaan nie. Tot jy self ‘n ouer word. Dan eers onthou jy wat jou Pa gesê het. En dat hy reg was! Kurt takel ‘n intieme saak hierso. Hy pypkan die manlike bravade van vaderlike verhoudings en gaan druk ‘n drie in jou emosionele zone. Dis die antipool van toksiese manlikheid. Op ‘n sokkie ritme met volkskitaar begeleiding gaan die lied heel waarskynlik ou wonde oop krap. Net om hulle uiteindelik te genees."
“Die liedjie is nie so ernstig soos dit klink nie, want as jy my pa geken het, sou jy weet hy was ʼn cool ou.”
Vandag se gas is 'n household naam. In 2009 het hy 'n rekord gestel vir bokdrol vêr-spoeg! Meeste Engelse mense weet nie eers dat bokdrol 'n woord is nie, nevermind dat dit 'n sport is! Hy mag dalk twee first names hê, maar hy is 'n enkele Krag Ysterperd met longe en pype van harde bronsgoud! Hy het al meer as 20 albums vrygestel en hy was al talle kere op die silwerdoek. Hy is 'n gesoute feeshond en sy musiek is ook baie populêr in Europa! Hy is die pilot van die airways, ‘n dokter van melodie, die prins van sokkie en die Kaptein van Afrikaanse popmusiek. Dames en here maak geraas in jou sitkamer, of in jou kantoor vir die enigste KURT DARREN!

On Wednesday, 19 February 2020, a new song, 'n nuwe liedjie, was dropped, that you just can’t get enough of. It’s from a man we call Die Kaptein – the right and honourable Kurt Darren! Released just in time for his 50th birthday, Die Kaptein released this massive party liedjie unlike any other: 'Party Tyd'. The song is an ode of thanks and love to his fans for all their love and support over his expansive career. On Saturday, 22 February 2020, Carl Wastie decided to give Die Kaptein a quick call on the Kfm Top40 to wish him a happy birthday, congratulate him on reaching this milestone in his life, and simply catch-up, before spinning 'Party Tyd'. Kurt Darren - knowing we were going to call and that cellphone signal was bad - took time out from his weekend away with his wife, Dunay, to play receptionist for the Marakele National Park, so that he could take our call on a landline (we're still wondering if he took any bookings whilst he waited for us?)
