In the ‘90s, Berlin rappers borrowed heavily from the music and style of rappers in the U.S. The arrival of record label Aggro Berlin in 2001 signaled the beginning of a transition, a move toward a more authentic Berlin sound. On this episode of Berlin Zwanzig, Vivian Host meets with Marcus Staiger, the founder of influential German rap label Royal Bunker, to discuss Aggro Berlin’s place in Berlin rap history and the label’s defining single, Sido and B-Tight’s “Aggro Teil 2.”
