Texts
Anarcho contains some personal pieces. These include the songs Auszeit and I miss you . In the text to I miss you , Favorite processes the loss of his parents, who died in an accident when today's rapper was twelve years old.
“I already did a track about my sister on Harlequin . […] I find it easy to write about it, even easier than to talk about it. I'll give you the track on CD, you can listen to it, but I would never talk about it all in my life. This is kind of self-therapy to write about. Just out with it. I'm fun, but I also have things to tell from my life. That's exactly what rap is. "

"You know I" "will tell, but I have sonofabitch muted , because I thought to myself, I have to not necessarily" son of a bitch "say. But he still thinks I said "son of a bitch" to him even though I didn't specifically say "son of a bitch" to him. "
Taichi responded to Favorite's attack with the song KackVogelFave . Favorite commented on Taichi's response to hip-hop magazine Juice :
“I found the flows to be relatively bad because he has to scream so much to be heard. He could have stayed a little calmer there. But the track itself actually works.
