Episode 2: Struggle for identity

October 2, 2021 • 31 min

Early 90s: Hip hop is political and the message is spread in German. In Frankfurt, the Rödelheim Hartreim project, among others, makes headlines. But with the Fantastischen Vier, four German guys from outside the scene emerge and celebrate enormous success. Azad, Sido, Moses Pelham, Celo & Abdi and Jeyz, among others, tell the story of how hip hop rapidly becomes so big.
