Music genre

Fruchtmax & Hugo Nameless mix the hip-hop styles Trap , Turnup and Cloud Rap . Your texts are mostly made up stories. The two mix their music with borrowings from the gangsta and street rap , but without coming from this culture themselves.

“I think music can be very personal, even if the textual content has nothing to do with the person. What an artist imagines in his music without actually being it tells me a lot about him nonetheless. I could do a track about going to a strip club in Atlanta without ever being there and still feel it. Many artists have even become what they imagined because of their non-real lyrics. We dropped the ultimate turn-up anthem with WKMSNSHG and now we actually have gigs every weekend in clubs where we do up gymnastics, so we're actually real in that regard. In the end it doesn't really matter, but “Fake it til u make it” is a formula that has worked many times, just look at YSL Know Plug or Kollegah and you will know what I mean. "

"Holds. For me, I'm used to life in the ghetto, after all my parents are not wealthy and I grew up in Kreuzberg when it wasn't hip. There was some shooting here and I wasn't hit - but that doesn't mean that I only hung out with gangbangers. Fortunately, I never had to make a living doing criminal activities. Closing statement on the realness debate: Rick Ross was a jailer and is still one of the greatest rappers of our time. It depends on the music. "
