"Bitch hör' auf zu träumen, Du hast nichts mit Rap zu tun.
KKS, ich bin cool und hab mehr Eier als ein Huhn.
Manche Leute meinen das meine vergleiche hinken
aber Fakt ist, ich ficke ihre hoes im rechten Winkel"

-King Kool Savas, Westberlin Maskulin - Der Punkt (Battlekings)

 transl.:
"Bitch stop dreaming. You  have nothing to do with rap.
KKS, I'm cool and I got more eggs than a chicken.
Some people say that my comparisons limp,
but it's a fact. I fuck your hoes in a right angle.

This punchline is by Kool Savas. He said in interviews that his lyrics might be simple, but he likes to get straight to the point. I really love his lyrics because even though he uses short and common words, they rhyme even better and he gets the message across. He also has a really nice flow of words, and I think that's what made him one of the most successful german rappers. Did you know that he was the first alive artist, besides Tupac, to get the TRL Golden Tape?
If you want to give it a try, it's a very chill song:

"Der Ursprung aller Dinge ist das Kaos, ist doch der Mensch nichts weiter als ein Papierfetzen, abgerissen von einem leeren blatt. Ja es ist blank..."
-Taktloss - Kaos (WWW)

transl.
"The root of all things is chaos. The human is nothing more than a scrap of paper, ripped from a blank sheet."

Taktloss' theme for rapping has always been "the underground ghetto kid,", however in his later albums he has developed more of a scary horror style of rapping, called "horror rap". Combined with his philosophical thinking, he has formed this newer style which he showcases especially in this song. He proposes the theory that order and peace doesn't exist, humans imagined and put those into place.
"Kaos," Simple chaos.. that's what Taktloss describes our world to be based on.

This punchline puts the philosophical view of life in a different perspective, stating that humans resemble only a small part of a large, blank, plain mass. I think it sounds like a great inspirational quote, something to possibly live by. If everyone remembered for a second that we are all just a tiny piece with the same root, then we wouldn't have to pick on our differences.

He also made a video for it, here it is:

"Manche sagen ich habe einen Vogel, andere meinen das ich spinne, die haben nur teilweise recht. In Wirklichkeit habe ich eine Vogelspinne, ich bin tight.

-Taktloss - Underground Rap 4 Life ft Ronald Mack Donald / Viva 2 Supreme Teil 3 4: 40

transl.:
"Some say I have a bird(am nuts), others believe I have a spider(am bonkers), they are just partly right. In reality I have a bird spider"

So this punchline is a tough one to translate. The first two expressions are german idioms for being crazy, together they form the name of an animal: the bird spider. Taktloss states that he is being referred to as an insane person. Indeed he is so indescribably insane, that the only name they can put on him is "a bird spider", a dangerous and scary animal.


@ChuckyBalboa: Taktloss is from westberlin. He will also always represent his hometown with the Westside symbol

"Deine innere Stimme sagt das du dich hasst, und ich weis auch warum. Du ahnst das du dumm bist du kannst es nicht wissen jedoch ahnst du es "
-Taktloss - Kein Entkommen (WWW)

translated:
"Your inner voice tells you that you hate yourself. You think that you are stupid, you can't know it, but you sense it."

 This one is pretty self explanatory. Very simple and almost primitive, but that's the general style that this rapper, Taktloss, wants us to hear.

Taktloss and Rifleman in the video for the song WWW. The german and the westcoast american made a collabo album titled "WeldWeiteWorts/WorldWideWerds"

 
Also about my last blog post's comments:
No, Taktloss obviously did not get an endorsement deal or any contract in any form, nor any money. As an underground battlerapper who is far away from being mainstream, he could not possibly get affiliated with a big household brand. I mean he owns his own music label called Fick die Biaatch Recordz (transl. "Fuck the bi-atch recordz". If that name is not underground, I don't know what is. He used the brand name because it is so familiar, and he really only meant any ketchup. I hope I cleared things up :).

"Y.O. Ich rappe Punchlines
Du schmierst dich mit Heinz Ketchup ein und stellst dich tot um nicht in einem battle mit maskulin verwickelt zu werden"
-Taktloss, Westberlin Maskulin - Battlekings

translated:
"Y.O. I rap punchlines,
You smear yourself up with heinz ketchup and play dead to not get involved in a battle with us"

 

you now smell ketchup.

Taktloss and King Kool Savas (KKS) formed the rap duo Westberlin Maskulin, they released two albums in 1997 and 2000 before separating. This line is from the song Battlekings.

This punchline stands out because of the specific depiction about how devastating battles against the artists are. According to Taktloss, the figurative enemy will try, at all costs, to stay away from rap battles with him and his crew. He will cover himself in ketchup, to appear bloody, stabbed, and dead in order to hide from them.

I find it creative and funny. Of course this kind of humor is not for everyone, but Taktloss is such a controversial rapper, he views things from the perspective of a street kid.
Taktlos literally means tactless (beatless, not on beat), the meaning also slightly implies tastelessness or insensitivity.

"Die Zukunft ist geduldig denn sie weis das ihre Zeit kommen wird"
-Taktloss- Zukunft (BRP7)

translated:
"The future is patient because it knows that its time will come"
-Taktloss- Zukunft (BRP7)

Taktloss on Viva 2 Supreme

This is one of the most famous quotes by taktloss, probably the top one. I saw this line on wikiquotes for example. It's not so much a punchline against a imagined enemy, but more a philosophical statement. Taktloss likes to make fun of philosophy and this quote is a good example. I will surely post more philosophical punchlines in the future, when the time comes.

"Ich fick nur jede dritte die ich will den jede zweite hatte ich schon
Schon damals war klar, ich bin unschlagbar...biaaatch!"
-Taktloss - Horror (Hoes Flows Moneytoes)


"I only f*ck every third bitch that I want, because I already had every second. Back then it was clear, I am unbeatable, biaaatch!"
-Taktloss


Taktloss is my favorite rapper. He raps in german underground battle-rap style, and his lyrics are tight! They call him "the last tight nigga".
