The best of "Deluxe Soundsystem" and "Verdammtnochma!"

Samy Deluxe 'solo debut is immediately became a milestone that has influenced the German Hip Hop massive - just like that heralded the increasing Americanization of the German rape and "Deluxe Soundsystem", which he, with the group Dynamite Deluxe "Verdammnochma!" who recently reunited, and has created one of the first serious battle albums represented. "Samy Deluxe" is for me perhaps the best work of the successful Hamburg rapper because it bridges the gap between the iconic charm of "Deluxe Soundsystem" and the professionalism and seriousness of a "Verdammtnochma!". The beats sound even heimatig-German and non-overweight-pop, but have already been created so professional that they do not act like freshly cobbled together from the home studio. The same applies to the texts: The rhyming technique was far ahead of its time and is even today's standards easily accessible, but those meaningless void that characterize the lyrics of Samy's mixtapes, not yet finding its way. Instead, there is the meaningful "Heard", "SOS" and of course "Wake me up" concise accentuated, to the point brought social criticism on the ears. Where "Wake me up" is also rhyme technically so well packaged and the message is expressed clearly and precisely that this hit single for me with 'And what about now "Curse is one of the best ever published in Germany rap songs , A masterpiece that is always able to be folded down jaws on call and return the faith in the German Hip Hop. Good as It Gets, alone to this stroke of genius to be able to call his own already worth the purchase of the board. But songs like "The Best" underpin Samy's pioneering role and give the album classic status. "Samy Deluxe" marked precisely this golden era of German rape in which the respective performers were spitten startling double rhymes into the microphone and to conjure murderously good beats from the computer already in a position, but had not yet used these same arrogant decadence that any hunger for success saturated and could convince a Samy Deluxe to promote the bling-bling lifestyle and to raise to a socially acceptable ideology. This might sound bitter, it is however not meant: "Verdammntochma!" impressed with stylish, ornate premium beats that should be regarded as an enrichment for the German Hip Hop, and also the mixtapes are phased over satisfactorily. Nevertheless, the creation of the label chiefs had reached with "Samy Deluxe" its previous peak. An album that belongs in every CD cabinet of rap fans.
