Music critics gave moderate to negative reviews of Jung Brutal Gutaussehend 3 upon its release. Max Brandl from laut.de gave the album three out of five stars. He criticized the songs "Frontload","Massephase" and "Warlordz" for their "bumpy Kindergarten production". He also said that JBG 3 is "olympic powerlifting with insults". [32] Rappers.in gave the album 2.5 stars and said that the album "sounded like trash",with "superficial disses". [31] Noiseys,Juri Sternburg accuses them of "bad racism" under the cover of "artistic freedom". He also said that "JBG 3 is shallow and silly". [33] Tristan Heming described the lyrics of the album as disgusting:"Rape,racism,Hitler and Stalin name-dropping and Holocaust references. All of this is actually so disgusting in its mass that one could puke." [36]
As the Echo Music Prize is determined by the previous year's sales,Jung Brutal Gutaussehend 3 was nominated in the categories best hip hop/urban album and album of the year. German tabloid paper Bild accused Farid Bang and Kollegah of antisemitic lyrics on their song "0815",which was included on the bonus EP §185. [37] They referred to their muscles being more defined than those of Auschwitz inmates. [38]
Campino,singer of the German rock band Die Toten Hosen,was the first to criticize the committee's decision during the ceremony. His remarks received a standing ovation from the audience. [39] Several artists later returned their Echo awards in protest,such as Marius Müller-Westernhagen,who returned all of his seven Echo awards received over the years. Other artists returning their awards were German conductors Christian Thielemann and Enoch zu Guttenberg,Russian-German pianist Igor Levit,record producer Klaus Voormann and the Notos Quartett. [38]
However,criticism did not only come from artists and the German press. Several businesses joined in,with Tom Enders,CEO of Airbus,being one of the most recent high-profile commentators,saying that this would hurt "Germany's international reputation". He also asked if "antisemitism [was] becoming acceptable in Germany" again. As a consequence the Echo award was discontinued after the controversy. [40]
Kollegah and Farid Bang were sued for Volksverhetzung (incitement to hatred) on 24 April 2018. [41] On 16 June 2018 the investigation was suspended by the state's attorney in Düsseldorf. [42] Kollegah apologized for the lyrics,following a visit to Auschwitz II–Birkenau in June 2018. [43] In an interview with German newspaper Stern ,Kollegah said "when you see for yourself how people were systematically killed,you'll never forget that. You become more careful and respectful." The continued with,"the Holocaust doesn't fit into hip hop." [44]
The record was put on the index by the Federal Department for Media Harmful to Young Persons in Germany. The songs "Gamechanger","Wenn der Gegner am Boden liegt" on JBG 3 and "0815" and "Ghettosuperstars 2" on the §185 EP became part of the decisive dicission. The songs have a "discriminatory effect against woman". [45] [46] JBG and JBG 2 have been indexed in 2012 and 2014. [47] [48]
All lyrics are written by Kollegah and Farid Bang [49] .
