Kurz und Schmerzlos

How to get fucked up lesson one.

Try to write a review, in English, about a German Sound-Track of the movie 'Kurz Und Schermzlos' (www.yomama.de) rapt in German with a French guest rapper who raps in French and having only two dictionaries on the desk, German-Dutch, Dutch-English. Meanwhile receiving a phone call from an American guy. Aaah! But ha, the record is nice. Like Chuck D said it: HipHop is the language.

All songs are inspired by the movie. The film tells the story about thugs from Hamburg doing their bizz. With this film debut a local director is putting himself and the Hamburger HipHop scene on the map in one time. The contents of the song sadly have not much about the movie. The soundtrack is also available on double vinyl with instrumentals of all the songs included. Hopefully we can give you a review of the movie in the near future. Hopefully the Germans can match the French master piece La Haine (The Hate).

Eins Zwo, kick it off to say it in their 'Sport' terms. Dendeman uses a lot of sport terms in his lyrics. "Ich wil plätte verkaufen und nicht mich selbst"(I want to sell records and not myself) covers the whole content of the song. Also see a review of their CD-Single 'Danke, gut'.

Dynamite Deluxe delivers a more laid back track, still with a pumping beat but the violins and the xylophone make it laid back. So that makes it Deluxe and the energetic flow puts the Dynamite in front of it.

Ferris MC drops a fat braggin' and boastin' song. "Was wolt ihr mehr? Ich gibe ihr was sie brauchen." (What do you want more? I give what you need.) Enough said.
"HipHop braucht kein mensch aber Mensch braucht HipHop" That is a nice way to say it like Fünf Sterne Deluxe do it in their song 'Dein Herz Schlagt Schneller'. In English it says: 'HipHop does not need any men. Men need HipHop'. And their song: 'your hearth beats faster'. The song is backed up by a thick paranoid bassline.

Mina + O-Ton rocking with the track 'Jure Jri'. Everything is in harmony but it is a little bit a boring song. "Fliess mit der beat." (Flow with the beat)

Patrice shows his skills with a ragga track. It moves your butt but you can't say it's original.

The last song is missing the matching bass line to stick all the elements together. Skunk Funk finishes the cd with the song 'Kurz und Schmerzlos'.
