March 20

"Ich habe eine kleine Geschichte zu erzählen die geht so: Rap ist in New York groß geworden aber sobald er laufen konnte fand er den weg an die Westcoast wo's ihm viel besser gefiel. Dann lernte er fliegen und Westberlin war sein Ziel. Jetzt ist rap in mir, ich bin real.
-Taktlos, Westberlin Maskulin - Chillin Killin (Battlekings)

I have a short story to tell, it goes like this: Rap grew up in New York but as soon as he could walk he found his way to the westcoast, where he liked it better. Then he learned flying and Westberlin was his destination. Now rap is in me, I am real.

This is Taktloss' version of how rap came to Germany.

Here I've got an oldschool picture of Taktloss. This was taken a long time ago (90s), and back then it was probably OK to have an Afro, but now he looks just hilarious.
