A second part followed in 2010 and the third part in the same year The same as always, please . All albums were released via Analog Audio and as LP via HHV.de. The two first appeared in 2010 at the Splash! Festival . Another gig followed in 2012.

Music and lyrics
Audio88 & Yassin's music is lo-fi hip-hop. The music is kept minimalist and paves the way for the subtle and often sarcastic lyrics. In the meantime, some modern trap elements can also be heard on the albums. The first three albums are mainly about alcohol consumption and, like Normal Velvet , offer a lot of lyrics about the meta-level of hip-hop. The men's place setting hanger was pulled back with normal velvet . There are many allusions to both hip-hop culture and general popular culture in the lyrics. Most of the time the lyrics are very critical, cynical and sarcastic. In addition, a large part of the texts can be found in the so-called battlerap , i.e. addresses both fictional and real opponents.
