Transcription
Background
In the song, Bushido uses single words that rhyme instead of complete sentences. Bushido confirmed in an interview that he wanted, besides twenty normal tracks, another track that sounde formed different. He also said that on paper, it does not make sense at first glance, but when people listen to it they will understand what's going on.[citation needed] The song was featured on his album Von der Skyline zum Bordstein zurück.
The single reached spot 15 in the German charts.[2]
Controversy
The line "Doreen, Maskenmann, AIDS-Test: positiv" ("Doreen, Maskman, AIDS test: positive") mocks Doreen Steinert and Sido, who were a couple that time.[3] In an interview with Patrice Bouédibéla on MTV Urban, Bushido first denied it and said that he meant the man in his video who wears a Goofy mask, but then he admitted it by calling both Steinert and Sido "embarrassing".[4]
In the song, Bushido also took aim at Raptile, Rapsoul and Curse, as well as Bass Sultan Hengzt and his label Amstaff Muzx.
Music video
The music video was directed by Hinrich Pflug and produced by Katapult.[5] It released on 20 October 2006 and premiered at MTV-TRL. The video was shot in a studio with a blue-screen background.
To produce a video that fit to the song lyrics, the shots were switched during Bushido's performance to the objects or persons which were mentioned; in addition, the background switches between the colours white and black. Eko Fresh and Baba Saad also made cameo appearances.
