style
In the songs on the album, Fard often appears more angry , aggressive or pessimistic than in comparison to his previous recordings. At some points in the songs Help yourself or Ziel & Schiess you can hear the rapper screaming out of anger. Among other things, Fard often leads internal monologues , which are classified as "strange" by some rap critics. In addition, he addresses the existence of the devil in that soul in his tracks . Some rap magazines accused Fard of having satanic content on his album . The Gladbeck rapper commented on these allegations a few weeks later and found them to be nothing more than "absolute nonsense" simply because he would never mean "something" seriously out of love for faith and paradise.
