Heute gibt es für euch die Runde mit Beastboy!

Er hat sich im Rekordtempo zu einem der stärksten DLTLLY-Rapper entwickelt und gilt in Battlekreisen als wohl stärkster Battlerapper der letzten 10 Jahre: Mikesh. In unserem Interview spricht er über seine Anfänge, das Battle gegen Kato, warum Battlerap für ihn die unmittelbarste Kunst Deutschlands ist und weshalb sie sich fundamental von Deutschrap unterscheidet. Außerdem erzählt er von den 2,5 Jahren Vorbereitung auf das Battle gegen SSYNIC, warum manche Gegner im Battle „isoliert“ sein müssen und darüber, was Beleidigungen tatsächlich mit ihm machen. Könnte er sich ein Battle gegen BeastBoy oder Laas vorstellen? #mikesh #battlerap #dltlly #interview #deutschrapideal ----------------------------------------------------------- Timecodes:  00:00 Highlights 00:28 Intro 00:50 Wer ist Mikesh? 01:57 Mikeshs Anfänge im Battlerap 05:06 Die besten Battles sind... 07:58 Mikeshs Battle-Vorbereitungen 11:43 Was machen Beleidigungen mit dir? 13:40 "Battlerap ist die unmittelbarste Kunst" 16:31 Warum Battlerap eine Ehre für Rapper ist 25:33 PA Sports im Battlerap 27:46 Statement zu Laas & Animus 28:47 Battle gegen BeastBoy? 32:50 Mikeshs Entwicklung in den letzten Jahren 36:29 Warum macht Mikesh Battlerap? 44:46 Radikale Freiheit im Battlerap 50:48 Mikeshs nächstes Battle 51:13 Message an alle ----------------------------------------------------------- SOCIAL MEDIA ► Mikesh bei Instagram: / eymikesh ► Deutschrap ideal bei Instagram: / deutschrap_ideal ► Deutschrap ideal bei TikTok: / deutschrap_ideal ► Simon bei Instagram: / simontellz ► Podcast zur Show bei YOU FM: https://bit.ly/2SxR3RT    ► Podcast zur Show bei Apple: https://apple.co/2k1o61o    ► Podcast zur Show bei Spotify: https://spoti.fi/33a2QIT    -----------------------------------------------------------   ▶ Deutschrap ideal ist eine Produktion des Hessischen Rundfunks für die ARD     -----------------------------------------------------------   ►Credits: Moderation: Simon Vogt Redaktion: Can Luca Pallante Oral, Simon Vogt Kamera & Ton: Jonas Hirschen Schnitt: Kora Bender, Florian See Grafik: Matthias Noe Social Media & Distribution: Vivien Jaschok, Vanessa Völker, Can Luca Pallante Oral Teamleitung & Produktmanagement: Patrick Secker

A. Ward discusses winning the last COTY, and A1 reveals his plan to fix battle rap.

Die "Der Bozz"-Trilogie endet. Zum Abschluss wird es richtig persönlich: Azad spricht in diesem Interview über seinen langen, schmerzhaften Weg nach oben, seine kurdische Herkunft und darüber, wie er Xatar für immer in seinem Herzen behält. Sein neues Album "Der Bozz 3" vereint seine Liebe zum Detail, starkes Storytelling und eine künstlerische Vision. Er erklärt, warum Samples für ihn das Fundament eines Azad-Songs bilden, warum DJ Rafik unschlagbar die krassesten Scratches macht und ob Battlerap für ihn eine Option ist. Gleichzeitig blickt er offen, aber kritisch auf die New Wave: Wie kann es sein, dass auf Deutschrap-Playlists 90 Prozent der Rapper gar nicht mehr richtig rappen? Sehr emotional erzählt er auch von den Konsumerfahrungen in seinem nahen Umfeld. Sein Appell: Seelische Schäden durch Drogenkonsum bleiben. Menschen verlieren Freunde und Familie durch Psychosen und psychische Erkrankungen. Auch die schwierige Beziehung zu seinem Vater prägt Azad bis heute. #azad #interview #deutschrapideal ----------------------------------------------------------- Timecodes:  00:00 Highlights 00:35 Intro 01:04 Die Trilogie endet 02:46 "Der Weg nach oben ist schmerzhaft" 04:12 Was ihm seine kurdischen Wurzeln bedeuten 09:46 Azads Reaktion auf Xatars Tod 13:08 Das erwartet uns auf “Der Bozz 3” 20:42 So war die Reunion bei Savas 23:28 Warum Azad Mucco feiert 28:44 Azads Legacy 30:33 Azad im Battlerap? 34:48 Konsum & Psychose im nahen Umfeld 47:10 Warum jeder das Album hören sollte ----------------------------------------------------------- SOCIAL MEDIA ► Azad bei Instagram: / azadoffiziell ► Deutschrap ideal bei Instagram: / deutschrap_ideal ► Deutschrap ideal bei TikTok: / deutschrap_ideal ► Simon bei Instagram: / simontellz ► Podcast zur Show bei YOU FM: https://bit.ly/2SxR3RT    ► Podcast zur Show bei Apple: https://apple.co/2k1o61o    ► Podcast zur Show bei Spotify: https://spoti.fi/33a2QIT    -----------------------------------------------------------   ▶ Deutschrap ideal ist eine Produktion des Hessischen Rundfunks für die ARD     -----------------------------------------------------------   ►Credits: Moderation: Simon Vogt Redaktion: Nasir Mahmood, Simon Vogt Kamera & Ton: Florian See Schnitt: Jonas Hirschen Fotos: Fabian Brosi Grafik: Matthias Noé Social Media & Distribution: Vivien Jaschok, Can Luca Pallante Oral, Vanessa Völker Teamleitung & Produktmanagement: Patrick Secker

„Köln Kalk Ehrenmord“ – ein Songtitel, den fast jeder Deutschrap-Fan kennt und den Eko Fresh heute als sein persönliches Lieblingsvideo bezeichnet. In dieser Folge von Deutschrap Plus blicken wir zurück auf das Jahr 2011 und analysieren, wie dieser Song Eko als erwachsenen Künstler etablierte. Wir klären die tragische Handlung rund um Max und Gülistan und decken auf, was diese Namen mit Ekos Vater Nedim Hazar und dessen Band Yarinistan aus den 80ern zu tun haben. Wir besprechen, warum der Track damals einen extremen Nerv getroffen und eine hitzige Debatte über Integration, veraltete Ehrbegriffe und gesellschaftliche Zwänge ausgelöst hat. Eko erzählt selbst, wie er fassungslos vor den tausenden YouTube-Kommentaren saß und zum ersten Mal spürte, welche Kraft seine Stimme abseits von Beef und Battle-Rap haben kann. Wir analysieren zudem die exzellenten Storytelling-Skills, mit denen Eko das Schicksal des deutsch-türkischen Paares in den Blocks von Köln-Kalk nachzeichnet, bis hin zum fatalen Ende durch den Bruder. Ist der Song und das Album "Ekrem" ein Wendepunkt in der Karriere von Eko? Erst vor kurzem hat Eko angekündigt als nächstes Rap für Kinder zu machen! All das erfahrt ihr in der neuen Folge des Deutschrap Plus Podcasts - Jetzt reinhören und abonnieren!

Heute gibt es für euch die Runde mit BX!

A Note from James:In the Blondie song “Rapture,” which was the number-one song in 1981, Debbie Harry has this famous line: “Fab Five Freddy told me everybody's fly.”So the question is—who is Fab Five Freddy?This guy is one of the central figures in the birth of hip-hop culture. Not just rap music, but the whole ecosystem: graffiti, breakdancing, fashion, DJ culture, art, film—everything that eventually turned into a massive global industry.Hip-hop today represents hundreds of billions of dollars in music, fashion, and entertainment. But in the late '70s and early '80s it was just a small creative movement happening in New York.Fab 5 Freddy helped connect all those worlds. He bridged graffiti artists, musicians, downtown art scenes, and eventually MTV.He also just wrote a book called Everybody's Fly, and it was a huge honor for me to talk with him about the origins of hip-hop and how creativity actually grows.Episode Description:Before hip-hop became a global industry, it was a loose network of DJs, graffiti artists, dancers, and musicians creating something entirely new in New York City.Fab 5 Freddy was at the center of it.In this conversation, he explains how hip-hop emerged from a mix of street culture, art scenes, punk music, and experimentation with records and sound. He discusses the origins of graffiti tagging, the rise of DJs like Grandmaster Flash, and the cultural moment when Blondie's “Rapture” helped bring hip-hop into mainstream awareness.Freddy also shares how the first hip-hop film, Wild Style, helped unify the culture's elements—music, dance, graffiti, and fashion—and introduce them to a wider audience.The conversation then turns to the modern era: AI-generated music, the attention economy of social media, and why artists today may need to slow down and develop their work before exposing it to the world.What You'll Learn:How hip-hop emerged from a mix of music, graffiti, dance, and street cultureWhy early DJs searched old records for breakbeats to create new soundsHow the film Wild Style helped define hip-hop culture for the worldWhy artists today may need to resist posting unfinished work onlineHow creativity evolves when technology disrupts the music industryTimestamped Chapters[00:02:00] The Story Behind the Title Everybody's Fly[00:03:01] A Note from James[00:04:15] Meeting Biz Markie and the Culture of Collecting Hip-Hop History[00:05:35] How Jazz, Blues, and Soul Influenced Early Hip-Hop[00:06:22] DJs Digging Through Records to Find Breakbeats[00:07:40] Grandmaster Flash and the Science of DJing[00:08:41] Why Producers Became Central to Hip-Hop Music[00:09:54] Blondie's “Rapture” and Hip-Hop's Mainstream Breakthrough[00:11:00] The Downtown Art Scene: Basquiat, Keith Haring, and Andy Warhol[00:12:24] The Origins of Graffiti and Tagging Culture[00:13:48] Graffiti as Competition and Artistic Evolution[00:15:12] Punk Rock and Hip-Hop: Parallel Cultural Revolutions[00:17:47] The Idea for the First Hip-Hop Film Wild Style[00:19:02] Bringing Breakdancing, Graffiti, and Rap Together on Film[00:21:50] Lessons Modern Artists Can Learn from Early Hip-Hop[00:22:49] Why Posting Creative Work Too Early Can Hurt It[00:24:00] Social Media, Attention, and the Speed of Culture[00:26:00] Hip-Hop's Global Influence[00:29:00] The Birth of Conscious Rap[00:31:12] Directing KRS-One's “My Philosophy” Video[00:33:00] Finding Great Hip-Hop in the Streaming Era[00:36:00] Battle Rap and Lyrical Skill[00:37:00] Artists Who Still Push the Genre Forward[00:40:11] How Rappers Make Money Today[00:43:00] What Makes an Artist Stand the Test of Time[00:47:00] Sampling, Technology, and the Evolution of Music Production[00:54:00] AI Music and the Future of Creativity[01:02:00] What “Everybody's Fly” Really MeansAdditional Resources:Fab 5 Freddyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fab_Five_FreddyRapturehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapture_(Blondie_song)Wild Stylehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_StyleGrandmaster Flashhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandmaster_FlashKRS-Onehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KRS-OneDebbie Harryhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debbie_HarrySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Warum haben so viele Rapper Angst vor Battlerap? Berliner Battlerap-Legende Tierstar spricht Klartext. Mit ihm durften wir über seine kriminelle Vergangenheit, die aktuelle Battlerap-Szene und die Wendepunkte in seinem Leben reden. Weshalb sind Skills im Battle manchmal zweitrangig? Und warum ist PA Sports für ihn der kompletteste MC im Deutschrap? Tierstar erzählt außerdem von brenzlichen Momenten, in denen er mehr Angst vor dem Krankenhaus hatte als vor dem Knast. Eine Situation auf den Straßen Berlins ist ihm bis heute stark in Erinnerung geblieben. Nur einen Tag später steht Tierstar auf der Bühne der Kool-Savas-Tour und realisiert, wie knapp er dem Tod entkommen ist. Und exklusiv in unserem Interview: die Story, wie Tierstar in eine Schlägerei mit dem Wu-Tang Clan verwickelt war. #tierstar #interview #deutschrapideal ----------------------------------------------------------- Timecodes:  00:00 Highlights 00:26 Intro 01:19 Geht Tierstars Podcast weiter? 05:55 Battlerap vs. kommerziell-erfolgreicher Rap 09:10 PA Sports steigt in den Battle-Ring 21:10 Schlägerei mit dem Wu-Tang Clan 25:59 Wie stehts um Toptier Takeover? 26:59 "Ich bin fast gestorben" 40:19 Gefährlicher: Bewaffnet oder unbewaffnet? 43:55 Gesetz der Straße: Was bringt man Kindern bei? 47:22 Eigene Autobiografie & Doku 49:19 Streaming-Karriere kommt? ----------------------------------------------------------- SOCIAL MEDIA ► Tierstar bei Instagram: / tierstar_andrez ► Deutschrap Ideal bei Instagram: / deutschrap_ideal ► YOU FM bei Instagram: / youfm ► Simon bei Instagram: / simontellz ► Podcast zur Show bei YOU FM: https://bit.ly/2SxR3RT    ► Podcast zur Show bei Apple: https://apple.co/2k1o61o    ► Podcast zur Show bei Spotify: https://spoti.fi/33a2QIT    -----------------------------------------------------------   ▶ Deutschrap ideal ist eine Produktion des Hessischen Rundfunks für die ARD     -----------------------------------------------------------   ►Credits: Moderation: Simon Vogt Redaktion: Can Luca Oral, Simon Vogt Kamera & Ton: Florian See Schnitt: Jonas Hirschen, Florian See Fotos: Fabian Brosi Grafik: Brigitte Siebrecht Social Media & Distribution: Vivien Jaschok, Vanessa Völker, Cedric Dilling, Simon Vogt Teamleitung & Produktmanagement: Patrick Secker

On this episode of Combo's Court, battle rap legend Cortez stops by for a wild crossover of hoops, hip hop, and controversy. Combo kicks things off by confronting Cortez over his IG comments comments directed at Combo — sparking a Cade Cunningham vs. Jalen Brunson debate and a full breakdown of the East's elite guards. The conversation jumps into Wemby's leap, from dunking on Draymond to bullying defenders with a whole new level of confidence. Combo and Cortez talk about what's changed in his game, why he's playing through contact, and whether this version of Wemby could make the Spurs a surprise contender — or even land him in the MVP race. From there, the two dive into the Pitchfork Top 100 Hip-Hop Albums list, breaking down the biggest snubs, battle rap truths, and who really belongs in hip-hop's album all-time rankings.

In dieser Folge spricht Niko BACKSPIN mit Morlockk Dilemma über sein neues Album „Der Eiserne Besen 3“ – den neuesten Teil seiner ikonischen Battlerap-Trilogie. Gemeinsam tauchen die beiden tief in Morlockks Schaffen ein: Es geht um seine kompromisslose Haltung, die Kunst des Battleraps und seine Position innerhalb der deutschen Rapszene. Außerdem sprechen sie über Rap-Legenden, politische Kunst und die Verantwortung, Haltung zu zeigen. Viel Spaß!

This week on the MalloryBros podcast, the start of course with the REEKEND RECAP detailing Terrance's trip back to his home away from home to celebrate Sunny's birthday with Terrell kicking it back to his old stomping grounds to visit the first luxury theater he went to. This mf mentions churro donuts and loaded nachos a couple times. THE BOYS ARE BACK. They start with conversation on Young Thug's crazy viral intro and album cover. They speak on Coachella and how hip hop won't really be present this year. Is this a sign or signal of Hip Hop's current state? This leads to a conversation on Bad Bunny headlining the next Super Bowl Halftime show. HUGE. The boys then talk about WHO Craig from FRIDAY should have dated if he had to choose between Danna, Debbie, Ms. Parker or Carla, all while considering the situations they'd have you in. Tank and Jake Paul are set for a Netflix bout, a big money event, the Bros discuss whether this is good for Boxing and if that matters if everyone for the most part is entertained. Terrance gets Terrell's opinion on if the current state of Battle Rap appreciates performance more than bars/cadence. Terrance follows that conversation by starting one about comments made by the creator of "Stranger Things" who claim they enjoy the gaps in between show releases. Terrance claims they exposed Hollywood's play to keep us locked without delivering. Next, Terrell gives advice after Instagram hits 3 Billions subs, and Terrance starts a conversation about how the new trend of "New Oprahs" he's talked about for years, may be making it's way into streaming .. creating a ceiling. This of course is on the back of a conversation about Kai Cenat and his popular MAFIATHON 3 as well as its recent feedback. The bros finish with some classics. COURSE OF ACTION IS BACK! Halloween Edition, and of course Terrance can't keep it chill. They go through a couple and Terrell adds one of his own. And of course the LADIES SHOULD LEARN SOMETHING during this short but great NFL segment to end the podcast. 15 mins of a great recap for Week 4.

First up, we unpack the ongoing back-and-forth between Dipset icons Cam'ron and Jim Jones. What's really going on between these two Harlem legends, and is there any hope for resolution?  Next, we shift gears to the sports and music crossover world as rumors swirl about Drake possibly planning to out LeBron James, as teased by DJ Akademiks. Could this be real, or is it just another internet frenzy?  From there, we enter the battle rap arena to discuss the electrifying showdown between Eazy The Block Captain and Shotgun Suge. Plus, we can't ignore the moment that stole the spotlight—Remy Ma confessing her love during the battle. What does this mean for the culture?  Finally, we wrap things up with the latest on Trey Songz, who's facing an $11 million judgment in a battery case.
