Life

Edgar Wasser was born in Chicago and moved to Munich with his parents when he was three years old. He graduated from a Waldorf school . Since 2007 he has appeared in public as a rapper. He published a number of free extended plays and mixtapes on his own site on the Internet . Through his music he came into contact with artists such as Main Concept , Creme Fresh and Blumentopf . The latter booked him in 2012 as support for their tour. Edgar Wasser continued to publish his music for free and worked with Cap Kendricks , among others . With this, as well as LUX , Phil Harmony, Paul and DJ Mic-E, he formed the band Dopeboyz in 2013.

After the third part of his The Edgar Wasser Freetrack Collection , he released the collaboration album Nocebo in 2013 with Fatoni . In 2013 he also performed at the Splash Festival . On November 14, 2014, the Tourette Syndrome EP was released , contrary to the name and listing on Amazon, not an EP, but the commercial debut album by Edgar Wasser. It was released by Soulfood under the Rainbow Penguin label and reached number 45 on the German album charts.

Music genre

Edgar Wasser makes use of musical elements from old school hip hop as well as the new wave of German-language rap music. Contrary to many of his colleagues, he places little value on image and street credibility. He reveals very little about his private life. His lyrics are more oriented towards Conscious Rap and are characterized above all by their own kind of humor, which contains elements of cynicism , sarcasm and irony . The lyrics contain many allusions to hip-hop culture and the musical scene, from German-language student rap to gangsta rap .
