background

The collab album Jung Brutal Gutaussehend 3 was released on December 1, 2017. The rappers Kollegah and Farid Bang have been working together for a long time. They appear together on numerous albums. The last joint release of a record was in 2013 with the album Jung, brutal, gutaussehend 2 .

On the day of the release of Storm Mask on , both rappers published the teaser Pull your backpack on the YouTube channel of Banger Musik by using autotune to parody Miami Yacine and the KMN gang , among others . An indication of this is z. B. the frequent use of the word cocaine , which is interpreted as an allusion to the trap single Kokaina by Miami Yacine.

There are also sexual allusions to Sido's wife, the presenter Charlotte Würdig . At the end of the discourse, the actress and singer Carolin Kebekus is mentioned and dubbed a “hooker”. Kebekus had previously named Bang "Pussy of the Month" after posting a misogynous post about female victims of domestic violence .

criticism

For Yannik Gölz from Laut.de the song heralds a "too grotesquely constructed epic pumped-up long player full of recycled motherhoods" . Looking ahead, it is written that it will seamlessly tie in with its predecessor and that there will be even more "taunts against other rappers on the same old beats" .

Trivia

Parts of the music video play on the Geierlay suspension bridge in Rhineland-Palatinate .
