Anyone know some LP's with South African language accents?

I'm gearing up to GM a Shadowrun campaign set in futuristic South Africa. Although I have one friend who actually lives there, I don't know that much about the area, but I chose it because it's (pretty close to) the setting of The Ear The Eye And The Arm, basically the only book I'm familiar with that gets close to the Shadowrun "feel". (That book is actually set in Zimbabwe, but after discussing it with my players, I moved it to a more likely choice, around Cape Town.)

I'm trying to get in the spirit in various ways. One way I'd like to get in the right mindset is via listening to some of the native language. I know they speak English there as well as some other languages such as Afrikaans. So, I'm hoping you'll suggest some You Tube videos for me to listen to.

As I was thinking about this, and watching some Let's Play vids of Minecraft, I thought: "I wonder if there's any Let's Play vids with a player with a strong African accent?" I mean, I'm a fan of Helloween4545, who has a strong British accent, and Yahtzee, who has a strong Australian accent*

. In both cases, it's English, but with that delightful twist of pronunciation that makes it more fun to listen to than an unaccented speaker is for me.

Only, I have no way to look this up! People don't tend to add "English accent" to their You Tube tags, and I expect the same holds true with other accents as well. So I need to rely on word-of-mouth, and this is the community I'm most familiar with and the one most likely to have this kind of info for me.

So here I am, asking if you'll recommend Let's Play videos in English with African accents. Or, if you know of any, in African languages; I don't care if I don't understand them, since it's just to train my ear.

Only the curious have, if they live, a tale worth telling at all.

Dutch accents would work, too. It's related to Afrikaans.

In general, I'd like to be watching the vids primarily for enjoyment of content, and secondarily for enjoyment of accent. Hence, LP's, which I'm really enjoying at present.

Heck, I'd take other useful accents: Polish, or a good strong Irish, or Indonesian, those could all help me. But, as before, I don't really think there's any way to look these up, so I'm hoping for some recommendations by people who've encountered or maybe even recorded them.

Yahtzee's English and lives in Australia, just so you know. And I think L Ps with Afrikaans accents may be very hard to come by.

"Steel wins battles. Gold wins wars."

I think I remember that, yeah... can't see how I mistook British for Australian :)

But yeah, I don't imagine they'd be plentiful. But I'll suppose at this point I'll take any unusual (not English-native, or American English but a pronounced accent not from the Pacific Northwest) accents. Maybe one will end up linking me to another.
