Cro

About

Because without CRO, German-language rap would not be what it is today. Neither would German-language pop, for that matter. Rap with choruses, melodies for millions, for the radio, the stadium and eternity - all this only found its way into local hip hop thanks to the self-proclaimed King of Raop. "Easy" and the debut album "Raop" not only made CRO a star overnight, and gave Deutschrap an unprecedented ease through his interplay of rap and pop, with which he renewed the genre from the ground up - an impact that continues a decade later.

Just like CRO's reputation as an exceptional artist who not only has a knack for catchy rap songs with choruses, but real hits: "Traum", "Bye Bye", "Bad Chick" or "Einmal um die Welt" - all anthems that went into the ear and stayed there for days, weeks, months and even years and will stay there forever. Just like the six solo albums in a row at number 1 in the charts, almost nine million records sold and a discography that is unparalleled.

30 times gold, 25 times platinum and once diamond status in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Also, a reputation as one of the best live rappers in the country, who this summer, as part of the "11:11" open-air tour for the eponymous album from last year in front of more than 220,000 visitors is ushering in an unprecedented unprecedented event era. But to sit back? Let others. With albums albums like "tru" or "Trip", CRO has explored his creative cosmos in very different directions and still remained true to himself.

And does exactly that on his latest release, the "SPACEJAM" EP. The eight songs couldn't be picked better by CRO, they fit perfectly into this summer and its this summer and his last weeks. Also because they come from an artist who has always managed like hardly anyone else in this country, the beautiful moments nonchalantly and almost incidentally - back then when he when he gave Deutschrap a new lightness with "Easy" and also now on the "SPACEJAM" EP.
