Bernoldus Niemand aka James Phillips, a South African musician who came from a mining town is a good example of a zef person and so is some of his lyrics eg: Welcome to my car.
Usually young men who drove Ford Zephyrs, hung their arm out of the window, and wore a comb stuck into one sock would be considered zef.
More recently, South African rap artists Die Antwoord and Jack Parow would be the embodiment of what zef is.
It is zef to be yourself, to be honest about your humble origins and to be proud of it.
