A new star in the German rap sky

The last few years has seen a fresh impetus to the German hip-hop. After a long deep artist as Marteria / Marsimoto, Casper, Cro, SSIO and plenty of other artists were able to focus from the clichéd gangster rap to rap convert with content. In the charts, this is reflected consistently again, and while the media again found interest in this form of youth culture, new artists were able to use the hype and make a name. Shindy is one of those. As a former companion of Kay One and current artists under the wing of Bushido, the name has been established directly and made from the outset that his name is by the Bushido / Kay One situation on everyone's lips. After Freetrack against Kay One to Shindy has been able to make a first impression with the public, and with his debut album NWA, short for I would not work, he has now defined the course. Stress for no reason, so the motto of the music video with Bushido, thereby not only triggered a wave of indignation, but helped the whole album yet equal to a tremendous jump in popularity. Led by the image thus found themselves once again a the critics. The fact that the actual artist Shindy remained in the background, and it rather re Bushido was in the foreground, no one was interested in the mass, and so a second version of the album from the baptism was brought directly to the indexing.
After careful consideration time I have now heard both albums intensively in order to make me a good impression can. Now once both albums in comparison.

INSTRUMENTALS
In my remarks to the album itself, I would like to start with the instrumentals. As a basic structure of each song I have often listened to it on the CD2 separately and paid very intense for comparison with the vocals himself to the details. Produced by Beatzarre and Djorkaeff, often Shindy themselves and sometimes with Bushido, the beats are mostly well done. It should be noted that they were actually Shindy directly tailored to its flow. Who is on the very hard boards, looking desperate here, because these are not per se to be found. For a completely different direction is searched more. It is too slow and quiet. Civilized. Here you never have the feeling of aggression, you verspührt rather the sense of fun. Alone by the beats so you can already find out some basic tenor of the lyrics. The beats of NWA, High School Musical or slow motion are the big draft horses and make it clear how to make beats quiet interesting to spread without boredom. Also still Ice-T can highlight one that can be counted as a prime example of the quiet kind. More successful things like Martin Scorsese, Why am I doing this ...? Although stress and for no reason have not consistently this quiet artery and go a bit more aggressive and darker, but still have no sound, which would give the impression of a bitter man. Unfortunately, there are also failures. Favorite song, Grandma and reflection are exemplary of the rather boring moments. Overall, however, also notice that the beats are alone boring despite their unusual style in the long run and not be able to convince all, that is only on shorter duration can be completely interesting without any vocals.
Conclusion: The new, innovative style, the instrumentals get a rating of 3/5

LYRICS / STYLE
You simply put the CD now with the vocals into it and listen to the casual style of Shindy, one does not know at the beginning once sure how to interpret the style. Although funny and quite creative rhymes are available, but the arrogant, slow and unusual handling of the flow is not necessarily what you are used to from the German rap. Over time and with several Hördurchgängen however, becoming increasingly pleased with the CD. You can tell that one get something running through the ear canals completely fresh. Shindy is arrogance personified, combines the flow of Fler in simply better way with the creative and witty passages of Kollegah and creates a whole new category. That one, this might displeases because it not much can start with the style, like this are on a different planet, but who innovation and skillful style denies here which closes - regardless of the listening preferences - eyes to this skilful talent. Rhymes are clever really filled with wit versehenund after several Hördurchläufen the Pointe for the listener. Of its content, it is really just Shindy bubble butt, the casual everyday without working and sleeping in until Ultimo's own arrogance, women, the status as a pensioner to have worked without ever, stress for no reason and even personal issues like the grandma and the dealing with her death. You can tell that Shindy has something to say, but this is far too little on these same points and always hangs at the same things. But you realize that he can, he's a Bushido million meters far ahead and may well belong to one of the greats. Problem is that he needs to find the threads. He is on a good way, but is still in search of itself and its own style. But alls in all, you can be pretty satisfied here and say through dealing with his flow a great talent.
Conclusion: The lyrics and the flow can be rated with a 4/5

FEATURES
The features have been kept to a few real.
Led by these Boss Bushido, which resists place on 4 Tracks: Always growing, Springfield, stress for no reason and Panamera flow. Combining Bushido / Shindy know a case quite pleasing, is here yet clear that Bushido finally has once again someone who hands down is it properly and Bushido itself with its remarkable hunger makes something that suits him, and especially the media like - stress for no reason and the corresponding Promo is the best example.
Represented on a track is Sido. This fits in combination with Bushido and Shindy pretty good, is lyrically on a strong level and provides a pleasant part from, but considering its own successes can unfortunately not build and has a total of a little colorless. His voice was mixed a little funny and is unfortunately rather gone down on the track itself. Successful collabo in any case can come back for more in the future, but rather perished here.
The cooperation with Eko Fresh was now the thing I was looking forward to the most. From textual field forth unfortunately a bit empty, but the rhymes themselves well taken, though linked to the wrong beat. Together but fit Eko and Shindy well on a track.
Working with Julian Williams, however, on the other hand went completely in the pants. I love the voice of J-Luv and was looking forward to a highlight here, but I can not absolutely make friends with it. This is not only because the beats, but also on the part of both themselves I also want the combination absolutely not like a guest and for me rather in uninteresting, existing -. But not remarkable area.
Conclusion: With the exception of Julian Williams know the features to please, but can not entirely convincing - 3/5

NWA 2.0
After indexing, it has now 4 tracks, all of which are landed on the index replaced. This review I now own. The first track, which you indicated, was Springfiel with Bushido. From now you made Springfield 2, Bushido was represented. Lyrically much better even of Bushido, but the beat is absolutely not my taste. This can inspire me just in the intro and in the parts himself, he is more likely perished. But can then but My S *** convince. Very horny beat and extremely funny parts, whereby the actual track was a big improvement. The next track, stress for no reason, was replaced and now got the title Stress with reason, in addition to the Bushido Part still a feature of arrest warrant and is overall my favorite track. The three in perfect harmony, although arrest warrant alone is more of a joke for me. However, the harmony is true in content it's back to business and the beat was again badly improved. Here is Bruce Wayne, the last new track with Eko, not absolutely successful. Mediocre text, worse Beat - not for me.
Conclusion: worth listening, though not the blockbuster. 4/5

DVD
The DVD itself is interesting, though no innovation. Surprising is rather that Bushido is barely visible, but exclusive interview excerpts with Staiger and major participation of Beatzarre and Djorkaeff and an insight into production. Very interesting, though not a blockbuster. The outtakes are also rather boring, ultimately, the DVD is likely with no real content, but you can see it as an extra good. We learn quite a few things just by Staiger interview.
Conclusion: Interview evaluates everything, even the insight into production: 4/5

CONCLUSION:
Shindy has been able to make a name for the album. He goes his own way and not making on Gangster. Although clearly noted that he is looking for his way, but this he will find. If content is more and more coming in this direction with the beats, then it is his style certainly can go well. The flow should definitely continue to be a feature, and ultimately trumps Shindy not only his old companions and Bushido, but also combines the slow flow with the skilful joke.
The conclusion itself can be regarded as a success after a successful wave of indignation with surfers IMAGE quite 4 stars can therefore forgiven and all is well.
