Okay how come it's in german but the 'power words' they kept throwing up on the screen were all in english? And the one phrase the chick said in english that I gleaned reminded me of Cyndi Lauper.

This is pretty weird, but I'm partial to Troy by Die fantastischen Vier. I like to bump that as I'm rollin' through the hood in my VW.

I wonder if these guys are in any way related to the group *Der Plan*, who had some pretty batshitinsane videos back some time around the late 80s...?

WTF DEUTSCHLAND?

In an alternate universe, where the Third Reich didn't fall, this video was never made. The me in that universe isn't going to possibly have nightmares involving being chased by levitating eggs. I'm a tiny bit jealous of that universe.

German rap? Okay, how about some Fuenf Sterne Deluxe?

Or, how about some Norwegian hip hop, courtesy of Fattaru?
posted by stenseng at 6:06 PM on March 24, 2007


Apparently, Fattaru are Swedish, not Norwegian. I'll forgive them for it this time, but they better not let it happen again...

What I don't get is she was strung out on crack, and losing her balance in a subway somewhere... Why the hell is an exercise instruction video stuck in her brain? I could see if she got just a song stuck in her head, but an entire video? Am I the only one this doesn't happen to? I still just get songs stuck in my head. Like the Flinstones theme.

Since aldurtregi and einarorn are letting the side down, I suppose it falls to me to post some Icelandic hip hop videos. First of all, here's XXX Rottweiler [NOT BESTIALITY] with their songs Sönn íslensk sakamál [True Icelandic Crime] and Havana Club. Oh, both vids are NSFW. Bent & 7berg's Hér kemur flugvélin [Here Comes the Airplane]. Two clips from Forgotten Lores, Sprettur [A Sprint] and Þegar ég sé mic [When I See a Mic ... oh, and it's a live clip with grainy, poor quality]. And finally, here's a video made from scenes from samurai movies to a song called Getto Fab by Bæjarins Bestu, a hip hop crew featuring the grandson of novelist Halldór Laxness, a Nobel Laureate. The rapper grandson goes by the moniker Dóri DNA.

Unfortunately, my two favorite crews, Afkvæmi guðanna and Fræ, don't have videos online, but I guess you can't have everything. Well, that's not quite true, there are a couple of cell phone videos of Fræ in action up on YouTube, but they're of extremely low quality and very short.

None of these are as weird as Gummitwist.

Now somebody post some good german video links because I really doubt this is the best the country has to offer...

I don't think it counts as sich betäuben if you're still exercising afterwards.

Not so crazy but very very fine German rap by Kinderzimmer Productions - Irgendwo Dazwischen (Somewhere in between).

Bonus: They have a flash-based game on their web page, where you can construct your own German rap with samples from the Texta himself

(click "Weiter" on the start page, then on Flashgame. Wait till it's done loading and click "weiter" in the red message box, now you can drag words and letter onto the ticker tape at the bottom and let it be spoken to a beat by pressing play on the tape recorder thing. You can send that mix to someone by pressing the record button and entering an email address).
