History

Bass Sultan Hengzt was signed in 2005, [2] but left shortly after the release of his album Rap braucht immer noch kein Abitur. DJ Ilan and DJ Devin also left, due to personal issues, and were replaced by producers Chakuza and DJ Stickle, alias Beatlefield. [3]

Two more artists were signed little later: Screwaholic now part of Anno Domini Nation, [4] a producer, and Bizzy Montana, [5] a rapper and producer.

Female rapper Bahar left the label, because in her opinion it did not provide the possibility of a successful album release. [6]

Nyze, who had been on several ersguterjunge releases, was signed in December 2006 and his album Geben & Nehmen was released in January 2007. Eko Fresh also signed in the same month, and Saad renewed his contract to release another album. [7]

In early 2007 Bushido started the girl group Bisou, which consists of former candidates of the German version of Popstars . [8] With Kay One [9] and Tarééc, [10] two more artists were signed.

In May 2010, released Kay One's debut album Kenneth allein zu Haus . The album reached Top 10 in the charts. [11]
