Background notes
Archive material and source history
Farid Bang, born Farid El Abdellaoui, started putting out music in the early 2000s from Hamburg. His background as part of a Moroccan immigrant family in Germany comes through in his lyrics, which often speak to experiences of marginalization with a raw, confrontational style.
His work has drawn consistent criticism for its content. In 2012, the track 'Zieh den Mittelfinger hoch' caused public outrage over lyrics targeting women and Turkish people.
He's collaborated with artists like French Montana, Killa Hakan, and Bushido. The 2018 single 'International Gangstas' became a hit that crossed some language barriers, built around his aggressive delivery and a mix of hip-hop, trap, and Middle Eastern sounds.
His discography includes albums like 'Asphalt Massaka' from 2007, 'Kopfticker' in 2011, 'Genkidama' in 2017, and the self-titled 'Farid Bang' in 2018. He works as a solo artist, and his music continues to polarize listeners while maintaining a connection with certain audiences in German hip-hop.
