The state of the German hip-hop in six movements: At the top of the German charts is currently the album “The Holland job” of Xatar and arrest warrant. Xatar this week was wanted list for allegedly inciting confidante to an act of violence. These have allegedly a friend of a third rapper, KC Rebell, beaten before a Cologne Shishabar almost to death, and knife and an ax were used.
Investigators believe reason is that KC Rebell recently insulted in a song Xatar. On Tuesday it became the fugitive police. Should Xatar be convicted of attempted manslaughter, he would also settle the suspended on probation remaining sentence that he received a Gold transporter for his armed robbery 2011th
This whole madness in view to have, helps to gauge what gift the three Hamburg January Phillip Eißfeldt, Dennis Lisk and Guido Weiss will make on Friday the German hip-hop community. If the release of her album “Advanced Chemistry” a natural phenomenon, then the moment when, after a long storm the sky burst, radiated through sun gently. Or with Jan Eißfeldts own words: “. All are happy, because the winner raps again”
Genäselte Hooks, ludicrous pictures
Twelve songs it became, each individual would function as a single release so catchy and irresistible all sounds. At the beginning is a booming ship’s horn the pace, it is strongly reminiscent of Hans Zimmer’s “Inception” soundtrack, then to mid- and uptempo alternate, is interposed deichkind esker electric fun, Hooks are genäselt, created ludicrous pictures, and already 50 minutes around .
your last work is from 2003. that it took so long, also related that Jan Phillip Eißfeldt in the meantime under the name Jan delay managed a pop star career. He undertook trips to funk, soul and rock and eventually helped his mate Udo Lindenberg at a comeback. 13 years ago, so when the Beginner released their latest album “Blast Action Heroes”, there was neither Facebook nor smartphones, iPods were considered modern, and hip-hop universe of spreading of Berlin Straßenrap not had any other genre varieties displaced (Xatar would say weggefickt).
The language and content of brutalization of rape, the urge, especially cocaine trafficking, prostitution and skull hammering on tight, then stood still against an alternative model. The sat playfulness and inventiveness. These puns When in doubt, too much than too little. The messages of these bands were not necessarily more intelligent, but definitely less antisocial. The most successful representatives came from Hamburg, especially the beginners. Their album “Bambule” from the late 90′s canonical today.
Rapper years are like dog years
You might think: The name alone of this trio is now a joke. Beginner. After 25 years of making music. In misleading band name Ranking they come right behind Eagles Of Death Metal and Massive Attack. The question is whether they still can contribute something today. Whether “Advanced Chemistry” may be more than a history lesson for the boys and longing satisfaction for this has been.
Rapper years are like dog years. made three albums, already is one school old. On the other hand Jay Z in the US that he can still give impetus beyond the 40th And here so? At least the claim is there. Denyo it says in the opening piece. “What … Rap’s identity crisis? Look as I for it hinbiege / With arms like Tim Wiese. “
wrinkle-free faces and a penis joke
Monday afternoon in Berlin, received the Beginner in the seating area of a rented attic office Interview. Jan Delay hides his eyes behind tinted sunglasses, Denyo and DJ Mad wear beard, all other exposed areas of the face seem astonishingly creases. Through the window Jan Delay overlooks the TV tower, he mumbles even more quickly a penis joke. Okay, can you go
Denyo says there had been in recent years, moments when they did something that the hip-hop habit actually fundamentally contrary:. Doubting himself. Be Yourself been uncertain whether the world really need another Beginner album. The stunned because “Advanced Chemistry” but sounds as confident and loose at any point. When would these artists only open his mouth, and you will come out brilliant prank. The opposite was the case, says Denyo.
As they wrote in 2010 first lines which have not sounded good. As was discarded, rewritten, checked. Once they listened to what they had testweise rapped on tape, they thought there could be something wrong with the boxes. 2012 they gave up, went solo on, tearing their later together. Denyo squashed a diced cucumber water. Now what sounded like looseness, was in truth refinement. Result of hard, very unlockerer work. DJ Mad want to say something, but can not say.
Over the years, had to die some Darlings says Jan Delay. But the song “Thomas Anders” existed today four finish produced, completely different versions, three remained on the track, and Jan Delay threw away an entire verse. To some lines it was a pity. For example? “Yes, I’m different, fully agrees / because I have intolerance intolerance.”
It is not that the Beginner outside today’s rap rules move. Also, they show you megalomania bloke Posen, swipes at the competition. Just give witty. The repartee is meant never literally. Therefore, the new album will be settled in “aspects”, so playing in her Video Giovanni di Lorenzo with.
“Shut up, stupid sly Meier”
A little surprise that this band has not yet been the target of other rappers. DJ Mad raises again: “. It is simply not reasonable to pee against the wind” Although, since it was this bird, says Jan Delay. He said the chief of Berlin labels Trailer Park. He wrote on Facebook that made Beginner “the largest lobe music of all time”.
Admittedly, says Jan Delay. He could understand so that some were angry about all the attention going to beginners bestowed. “If I’m on a presence in these days, I already am myself in the ass.” But his nasal voice! “I think to me, shut up, stupid sly Meier.” It is this level of self-reflection, the one will ever hear of any German gangsta rapper.
Plus, of course, the political statements that casual Warning “Unterfremdung “in Germany, hidden declarations of love Hamburg Autonomous. This impetus they owe a band that is still older than themselves and they adore, Advanced Chemistry from Heidelberg, hence the album title.
For individual pieces have also summoned old companions like Samy Deluxe and Dendemann. In street rapper contemporary act with, the aforementioned arrest warrant or about Gzuz, a hamburger with three years jail experience. In the Hamburg Hipster Club “evil and dangerous”, in which the Novice Friday night will celebrate the release of her album, Gzuz not purely actually, he has eight times banned. It was necessary a lot of effort to persuade the club operator in an exception.
One more question. “What would surprise more: If your album ends next week on the chart peak and Xatar & amp; Warrant displaced – or if it does not do that, “you hesitate to smile?. “When you are completely honest,” says Denyo, “but then the Second.”
“Advanced Chemistry” will be released on Friday at Vertigo / Universal. Live: 24.8, 21:00 Lido (sold), 11.9, Treptow Park (Lollapalooza)
