The controversial song “Stress without cause” by the rapper Bushido allowed after a court ruling to be sold to another back open to young people. The song stands unjustly on the index for youth-endangering media, the Higher Administrative Court (OVG) Münster decided on Wednesday. There was thus held in summary proceedings of an appeal of the musician. The indexing is illegal because the Federal Department for Media Harmful to Young Persons have not been adequately tested, whether it concerns art. (AZ: 19 B 463/14)
medium used according to court of Art
The auditor would need to weigh up the interests of youth protection and the freedom of art, the OVG informed with. The Federal Review Board had placed the music CD “NWA” the interpreter Shindy with the Bushido-song and the music video in 2013 on the index. The contents THAT CONDITION brutalizing, brisk violence and discriminated against women and gays, a statement said.
The OVG now stressed loud Youth Protection Act could a medium not be classified as harmful to minors, when it serves the art. While this close indexing of non-general, but requires a special consideration. Thus the people would be heard that would have creatively contributed to the work of art – in this case in particular the main performer Shindy. Then the Federal Review Board chose not to do.
Federal Review Board decision may rectify
According to a court spokesperson, the testing has now the opportunity to enhance its decision. So it would be conceivable that the Federal Review Board shall consult the artist Shindy and decide once again that the CD may not be sold to minors. An opinion on the ruling was received neither by the laboratory nor of Bushido on Wednesday first.
“Stress without reason” had triggered outrage after publication. Among other things, had the former Berlin Mayor Klaus Wowereit (SPD), which is mentioned in the song name, makes a complaint. The Berlin district court had an indictment of Bushido sedition and violence representation but not admitted.
