Living modestly despite millions

Instead of a villa with a pool, he still lives in a small house in Staten Island. It became famous through his legendary appearance on “MTV Cribs” – a modest two-bedroom house with charm. Although his fortune is estimated at around ten million dollars, Redman deliberately lives simply, despite blockbusters like How High. He says himself that family, friends and memories are more important to him than status symbols.

Back in the days…

Legendary! Redman at MTV Cribs

Wow! Shoebox full of cash!

The truth about MTV Cribs

His properties and retreats

In addition to the house in Staten Island, Redman also owns a colonial house in Newark, surrounded by greenery and tranquillity. There he enjoys spending time with his family, far away from the media and the stress of touring. His home is a reflection of his personality: honest, down-to-earth, warm.

His cars: less is more

• Smart ForTwo – small, practical, urban
• No flashy fleet like other stars
• Proof of Redman’s grounded lifestyle

His heart beats for the community

With Method Man, he regularly organizes charity events such as “No Jive Turkey Day”, where food is distributed to the needy. He also supports educational initiatives in Newark. For him, success also means responsibility: giving something back to the community and leading by example.

Social commitment with impact

Redman is not only involved with donations, but also personally. He uses his platform to draw attention to social problems and motivates fans to get involved too. He focuses on education, social justice and youth development.

• Food banks in Staten Island
• Educational projects in Newark
• Workshops for young people

Private life: Father with responsibility

Let me take you inside Redman’s family: he is the father of five children, three of whom are with his partner. Despite his rapper past, he maintains clear boundaries at home: no smoking in front of the kids, open conversations about drugs, LGBTQ+ and social issues. His aim is to pass on respect, education and self-confidence to his children – without pressure, but with a clear attitude.

Values that he exemplifies

Redman talks honestly with his children about difficult topics. He doesn’t want to forbid, but rather inform and empower. It is particularly important to him that they can make their own decisions – with the necessary knowledge and support from their family.

• No drug use in front of the children
• Education instead of bans
• Respect and openness in the family

Redman: From DJ to world star

Let me take you back to Redman’ s early years: born in 1970 in Newark, New Jersey, he grew up in a musical environment. At 16, he dropped out of university and ended up living with his mother – only briefly, as his path soon led him to the clubs as DJ Cut Killa. There he attracted the attention of Eric Sermon (EPMD), who signed him to Def Jam. His debut album “What? Thee Album” (1992) put him directly on the rap map. With his unique blend of humor, wordplay and flow, it was clear that he was an exceptional talent.

• 1992: What? Thee Album
• 1996: Muddy Waters
• 1998: Doc’s Da Name 2000
• 2001: Malpractice
• 2009: Blackout! 2 (with Method Man)

Conclusion: Authentic, committed, unforgettable

Redman remains an exceptional phenomenon in hip-hop. Authentic, socially committed and dedicated to his family. He shows that true success is not measured by gold chains and mansions, but by character, attitude and the ability to remain true to oneself. A legend who still impresses today.

German Rap – How it all began

When the culture of hip-hop began in New York, people in Germany were listening to ABBA, Status Quo, Smokey and Schlager. At that time, hardly anyone in Germany noticed the culture of hip-hop, which was mostly lived on the street, with rap, DJing, B-boying (breakdancing) and graffiti. There is still disagreement about the beginnings in Germany. The single released in April 1980, titled “Rapper’s Deutsch”, is considered the first German-language rap song, but without really becoming famous. G.L.S.-United were the performers, which include Thomas Gottschalk. It was a parody of the American rap song Rapper’s Delight by the Sugarhill Gang.

Nina Hagen and Die Toten Hosen also recorded a single with rap in the early 1980s. The first nationally known hip-hop bands in West Germany were Rock Da Most, Advanced Chemisty, We Wear The Crown Posse, TCA the Microphone Mafia and Too Strong. As in West Germany, musicians in East Germany were also influenced by the film Wild Style, with the English-language crew Electric Beat Crew emerging in East Germany shortly before the fall of the Berlin Wall. In the mid-1980s, this first wave subsided again. It was probably the Fresh Familee, which published in 1989, the first German rap song originating from the culture, under the title “Ahmet Gündüz”.

The beginnings briefly summarized:

• Beginnings in America, New York
• Hip-hop culture first lived out only on street
• Not agree on real emergence
• Rap appears again and again with different artists

New and old school – popularity increased

The first renowned German hip-hop artists initially rapped almost exclusively in English, until Torch from Advanced Chemistry freestyled in German for the first time at a jam and received approval from the audience, which was probably due to better understanding. But it wasn’t until 1992 that Advanced Chemistry released “Fremd im eigenen Land,” the first record in German.

Rap then established itself more and more in pop culture and more artists emerged. The so-called fun rap became popular and with it the performers such as Die Fantastischen Vier or Fettes Brot as well as the Rödelheim Hartreim project by Moses Pelham in which, among others, the then completely unknown artists Sabrina Setlur and Xavier Naidoo participated. Through this new type of rap, the scene split into Neue Schule and Alte Schule, while the Neue Schule preferred the fun lyrics, the Alte Schule saw themselves more as the critical performers, with lyrics against racism or police violence like the Absolute Beginner with their song K.E.I.N.E., which was considered police criticism.

Increase in popularity in a short time:

• First German rappers rap in English
• Torch from Advanced Chemistry raps German freestyle first time
• Fun rap becomes popular: Fantastischen Vier/ Fettes Brot

Integration into the mainstream

From the mid-1990s, hip-hop became an integral part of German pop culture. Independent hip-hop centers emerged in the Ruhr region, Düsseldorf, Cologne, Berlin, Heidelberg, Stuttgart, Munich and, above all, Hamburg. Massive Töne, Blumentopf and Freundeskreis established themselves during this period.

Later, so-called gangsta rap emerged, represented by artists such as Kool Savas, Sido, Bushido or Sammy Deluxe. In the meantime, hip-hop has become indispensable.

Who is Riles?

Originally from Rouen in Normandy, Rilès is 24 years old and his success is well established. For this French artist who rappes in English, it all started in his bedroom, which he gradually transformed into a studio. Having learnt music on his own, he made a name for himself between 2016 and 2017 during the “Rilesundayz”, publishing one piece of music a week for a year. He recorded several quality clips like Brothers or College Dropout. Very quickly he is spotted by one of the most influential French youtuber of the platform. In 2018, he shoots his video clip “Should I” in Los Angeles and then realizes his first festival tour after his “Jungle tour” in 2017. In 2019, after releasing a few Rilesnippetz and recording his song “Marijuana”, in which Snoop Dog plays, he embarked on a second tour, the Tiger Tour, which he did in two stages. First, he toured internationally in March-April 2019 with opening dates in Cologne and Berlin, then he filled French concert halls in November-December 2019. Finally, on 30 August 2019, he released his album Welcome to the Jungle, marking his arrival in the music industry.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B4p1-vXJ7jS/

An album that solidifies the Rilesundayz label

This album, even if Rilès says that it is “not a happy album” but that he is “happy to have done it”, was a real hit for him. Indeed, his music has set fire to the zeniths of France and is appreciated by an ever-widening audience. Accompanied by his artist-dancer-musician-singer friends, Rilès owes his success to an overflowing energy and his ultra solid team. Together they represent a family and a label: Rilesundayz. This label illustrates itself through its artists including Riles but also with the clothing brand Rilesundayz and the annual Rilessundayz Magazine – the first issue was published in recent months and traces the year 2019 of this label that continues to grow. Never short of ideas, Rilessundayz sees “creativity as the only way out”.

A meticulous artistic work always more meticulous

Rilès is known in the world of music for being a great worker with an eye for detail. Since the release of his album, he has recorded a few clips such as the one of Thank God, released on October 18th, the flagship track of the rapper’s fame with Brothers and Pesetas.

Then comes the clip of Queen, that he shoots in the streets of Marrakech at the cool. Rilès’s clips are each time more original and neater, Against the Clock and Myself N the sea, released before the album are the proof.

Ever since the Rilesundayz, Rilès has had this obsession with time, this race for the watch that is illustrated through an hourglass that he never fails to show on his pieces. In each of the titles of his album Welcome to the Jungle figures the word “run” symbolizing this escape from time. One thing is sure now that the album is out, Rilès will keep running.

The hidden talents of Rilès

The young singer is also gifted in painting, he who used to paint to pay his mother’s debts before. Surprisingly enough, he can paint with both his right and left hands.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B4Ni_ABpOwQ/

Rilès also shares with us his talent as a dancer alongside his friends and dancers from Rilessundayz, Moos, Chris, Bryce and Waseem.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B14Ab3rnytI/

Rilès in 2020

Today, Rilès comes back with an EP, “LVL 36” (extended play) which pleases and which is the fruit of a revival for the Rouen rapper who tries to protect himself from North American pressure who signed with Republic Records in 2018, thus having the same label as Drake or Lil Wayne. This EP features 4 tracks: LET IT GO featuring Canadian rapper Tommy Genesis, FEELINGS, KEEP IT SEXY and GOA. An unexpected EP that underlines the work done by Rilès during his last months in studio and in Los Angeles.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxenQ7WSUxw

With the video clip “GOA”, Rilès shares once again his flow and his talent in front of the camera, always accompanied and supported by his acolytes, Younès, Terrence, Chris, Moos, Elisa, Bryce, Asael, Don Carlito, Johanna, Leone and so many others from the Rouen region.

In any case, the tiger Rilès may roar for a long time to come…

So the clever and skilful rapper continues to make people dream and entertain with his songs. In July 2019, he had already caused a sensation by creating a track based on the horn of his neighbour’s car, Wash my car. A self-derision that amuses more and more fans who hope to see him again soon in concerts and festivals, where he never fails to thrill the crowd!

While waiting for his concerts to resume, the young rapper supports other artists such as the designer Simon Jacquemus during his SS21 fashion show “L’Amour” in the open field.

Multi talent of the instruments: Tash Sultana

Not a rapper, not a soulful singer or an RnB singer – but incredibly noteworthy! Tash is a multi-instrumentalist, a wonder girl who takes the stage apart as a soloist at concerts. Her genre is unknown or cannot be subsumed under one direction. A variety of musical styles or a new, unknown genre. Her management says: neither woman nor man, is her name, rather non-bionic. Tash, born in Melbourne, started with street music years ago and started publishing her songs on Youtube. Since she plays music on her own and still does a job that could be a band – she is the new creature in the business! With over 10 different instruments and the inspiration of various musicians like Jimi Hendrix, Erykah Badu, Bob Marley, Led Zeppelin, alt-J and Phil Collins – we believe she will be very soon, very famous.

German rap for women: Loredana

Loredana, who was born in Albania, grew up in Switzerland. The girlfriend of the successful Albanian rapper Mozzik becomes a star with just one song in 2018. Her self-confident and cool manner is not well received by everyone at first. In spring she starts teasing her first single on Instagram. With the release of the song – Sunglasses – Loredana gets 2 million clicks within the first 24 hours and some of the scene like Nura, Schwesta Ewa and Visa Vie support her via Instagram. The style of music is well received by many and so she ends up in the Top 15 of the charts. With her coolness – her look and her music, she deserves this recognition!

Youtuber & musician: Marvin Game

It is known since its Hotbox format on Youtube. The Berlin boy invites musicians like Materia, Bausa and SXTN to join him while he smokes, tells stories or just raps. Marvin releases his first solo album 2017 – 20:14 – . He refrains from harsh announcements and concentrates instead on a down-to-earth presentation. His fascination for rap, he found as a boy in the US Hip-Hop culture and wants to do his own thing until today!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sw7jemGZDpw

Extremely celebrated – women in the rap scene

SXTN – a German hip hop duo from Berlin, two rappers Juju and Nura. In 2015, the girls achieve a breakthrough. Sold out tour tickets and on the lists of the top 20 charts take the two to the top. Their announcements are unmistakable: SXTN demonstrate self-confidence and cannot be talked into. The trapbeats come hard and demanding, the lyrics are vulgar and coarse. The provocation is undoubtedly successful.

Eunique – known as the Hustler. She simply raps down the themes of social injustice, sexism and racism. The Hamburg girl put in her freestyle rap video at that time and thus began her career as a rapper – who dares. Eunique also known as Kobra, founds a fan club Kobra Military – to expand their community.

Rap Genius – Which man can keep up?

Besides long-term musicians, more and more newcomers are making a quick start into the rapper charts.  More and more male musicians rap about topics like drugs, sex, violence, love, music, friends or other soft areas.

With Sido, Miss Platum and RAF Camora & Bonez MC Bausa can be heard since a long time. His music is played up and down on the radio and with a few titles he is in the top three of the charts.

https://www.instagram.com/p/Bgi8sWEFO8v/

Ronny Trettmann , a reggae and dancehall artist, conquers the country’s single charts for four weeks. With his Saxon dialect and a sexy autotune voice, he arouses attention. Besides big appearances at different festivals, he records songs with other German rappers like Gringo, GZUZ, Materia and Megaloh, which everybody should know by now.

https://www.instagram.com/p/Bmd7rMVFURo/

Gross lyrics, big feelings and questionable poses – his songs have been at the top of the trend charts at Spotify and Apple Music for weeks now. His tour in all cities almost sold out. In 2017 he won the award for Best Newcomer National at the Hip Hop.de Awards.

Top Charts – A steep music career for Shirin

Shirin started as a Youtuberin in 2014 and quickly built up a network with other Youtubers and a large fanbase. There she posted a few videos of her singing, but only rarely and so she never made the breakthrough until the debut of her songs: “Orbit” and “Gib ihm! In 2019 she got a deal with the label Universal Music, founded her own label, released her first studio album and landed high up in the German charts with features with musicians like Xavier Naidoo. Today she is unstoppable and with over 7 million fans on her socials you can see that!

• Twitter: Shirin David

Even before her career on social media, Shirin trained at the “Youth Opera Academy” in Hamburg. There she focuses on singing, acting and dance. In 2015 she sings the chorus of “Du liebst mich nicht” with Ado Koyo for the first time on YouTube. Meanwhile she belongs to the big ones and her fans in Germany, Austria and Switzerland can’t get enough of her. One single after the other and a few projects on the side, make Shirin a real power woman and that at the age of 24.

<Shirin’s Visions – “Give Him”, “Only With You”,… every song a hit!
Shortly after the release of the song “Gib ihm!” in March 2019, it was clicked a million times. With a lot of irony, she defends her style and looks and that’s what goes down well. Many girls can identify themselves and look up to her. With eye-catching videos, outfits to look at and lyrics full of self-confident statements, Shirin is in the focus and draws every eye to herself. Her career doesn’t stop, in September 2019 she releases her debut album: “SUPERSIZE” and a matching fan box with exclusive articles. Shirin maintains her connection to the fans all the time, whether it’s just through social media or by raffling for an exclusive release party, where she gives her superfans a wonderful experience.

“Give him” – Statement for self-confident women

A catchy tune for millions of fans, Shirin’s song Gib him and the official video.

SUPERSIZE Fanbox – do you need the ?

On 20.09.2019, just in time for the release of her album, the 23-year-old also presented the matching fanbox for her album. In a video on YouTube she gives her fans a closer look at what the box is filled with. Her album as a CD, a perfume sample of her new fragrance, a handbag, stickers and many other such little things can be found in the box. In her video Shirin talks enthusiastically about the box and can’t wait to get the reactions of her fans.

Here you get an insight from Shirin’s pre-listening session of her debut album Supersize.

Social Media Beginnings – Shirin David on Youtube

In 2014 Shirin David launched her Youtube channel. On her channel you won’t find many make-up tutorials or beauty videos, Shirin rather entertains her fans with pranks, challanges or videos in which she does street surveys. With her big mouth and her self-confidence, she fits perfectly into the scheme of a woman who knows how to entertain people. Through this and her friends with whom she collaborates and publishes videos on YouTube, her fan base grows rapidly.

Shirin’s Style – a lot of self-confidence
The appearance of the 24 year old is for some very artificial, their secret to success. Constant criticism of her appearance, such as her nails are too long or her outfit is too short, simply inspired the rapper to make a statement and thus wrote her hit “Gib ihm”, which was so well received that it got over 44 million clicks on YouTube alone.

It is clear for the blonde that she can do what she wants with her body! The 24-year-old is also very open to cosmetic surgery and has even made a whole video on YouTube about it. Her viewers have different impressions on the whole topic, some think she deserves respect for her honest way and others not. They don’t interest Shirin at all, she is much too busy for that. “It always annoyed me when people say: ‘Oh my God, your nails are too long or your dress is too short or you have too much lipstick or eye make-up on it. And then it was just like, “Give him”. That’s probably the best quote Shirin can use to sum up her opinion.

The self-proclaimed feminist – equal acceptance for women

Shirin often has to struggle with criticism of her appearance. Words like “plastic Barbie” are not uncommon. Although the Hamburg native conveys a rather specific image, especially when posing naked in front of the camera, she is nevertheless a self-proclaimed feminist. “Feminism for me is taking off as much as you want.” Her wish is that nudity of women will finally be accepted in society. She does not want to be condemned for her body or what she does with it. The equality of men and women is simply important to her. Shirin also thinks that the comparison with other women is nonsense. Especially through the media women are often stirred up against each other, she distances herself from that.
<Shirin’s own perfume at Douglas.
As if a steep music career, her own music label and her social media activity on YouTube and Instagram weren’t enough, Shirin just makes her own perfume on the side. Her fragrance “Created By The Community” was created by her fans in person through voting. Oriental, with aromas of cassis and liquid caramel, that’s how you can imagine the fragrance. 2 years later, Shirin releases her second perfume, “Created By Shirin”, a fragrance of lychee, Moroccan rose, apple and tea.

Family is written very big – origin, sister & Co

Shirin’s family plays an important role in her career but also in her personal career. Her mother and her nationality, her little sister Pati and even her father, who has never been close to Shirin, have a great influence. Shirin takes all this up in her music and makes it her creative output.

Did you know? Many think that Shirin is her real name. Her real name is Baraba. The stage name Shirin means translated “the sweet,” “the beautiful,” “the pleasant” and “the charming. The name has an ancient Persian origin.

nationality & family

Even though the beautiful blonde was born in Hamburg, her roots are quite international. Her father is from Iran and her mother from Lithuania. The singer was born in Hamburg, but spent the first years of her life in Lithuania. There she grew up with her parents and a younger sister. The singer is proud of her roots and makes this clear. Her mother supported Shirin at an early age to encourage her creativity. Shirin received piano and ballet lessons and later also violin and oboe lessons. Shirin never had a closer relationship to her father. She sings about this in her pop ballad “Fliegst du mit”, in which she sings to a stone spray and tells how intangible her father is for her. “You never taught me to value myself. And instead of myself, I look for you in every man I meet.” This is how the 24-year-old expresses her feelings about her father in her song.

Pati Valpati – Influencerin & sister of Shirin

Shirin is not the only one with a significant media presence. Her little sister Pati Valpati follows in her footsteps. On Instagram she already has over 300,000 followers and they regularly follow her lifestyle and outfits. Since September 2016 she has been living in London & she studied “Journalism and Media” at the University of London.  She received her Bachelor in Journalism and Media in July 2019 and has been very active on Instagram since then. She has support for her sister all the time and is a big fan of Shirin.

So BTS was founded

The first members were recruited in 2010-2011. Until the squad 2012 some original members were replaced by new ones. Six months before the Boy Band was really founded, the guys started to interact with their fans. Before BTS RM and Suga worked as underground rappers. Jin studied at Konkuk University. J-Hope took part in various dance competitions as a member of a street dance team. Jimin studied Modern Dance at Busan High School of Arts, which he later left to move to Arts Korea High School, where he met V. After leaving the talent show Superstar K, Jungkook received offers from seven agencies. In the end he went to Big Hit Entertainment because he was enthusiastic about RM’s rap.
