background

On the day the album was released, Bushido was the thematic focus in the MTV show TRL XXL . In the interview, the rapper explained that title 7 could be interpreted in different ways. As examples, he pointed out that on the one hand it is his seventh solo album (he comes up with seven albums, since he includes demotape and King of Kingz ), but also on the seven virtues of the samurai or the number of letters in his artist name could relate.

In a later edition of TV total by Stefan Raab, however, he stated that the 7 was only explained by the fact that it was the seventh album. In addition, the artist refers to both in his intro, as well as in the song scum on the film Seven of David Fincher .

In the song Are there you Bushido reveals that he is single and has not yet found his dream woman. He wonders if she really exists: a woman who is always loyal to him, sees in him the real person, not the rapper, and accepts him for who he is.
