In this song, Bushido uses words that rhyme together but do not form complete sentences. Bushido confirmed in an interview that he wanted, besides twenty normal tracks, another track that sounded different. He also said that on paper, it doesn't make sense at first glance, but when people listen to it they will understand what's going on.
The single reached spot 15 in the German charts.[1]
The line: "Doreen, Maskenmann, AIDS-Test: positiv" (German: "Doreen, Maskman, AIDS test: positive") sparked controversies, as many fans believed that Bushido was mocking Doreen Steinert and Sido with this line.[2] Bushido denied those claims in an MTV Urban interview with Patrice Bouédibéla and said that he meant the mask man in his video, who wears a Goofy mask. [3] He also took aim at Amstaff Muzx, most notably Bass Sultan Hengzt, Raptile, Rapsoul and Curse.
The music video was directed by Hinrich Pflug and produced by Katapult.[4] It released 20 October 2006 and premiered at MTV-TRL. The video was shot in a studio with a blue-screen background.
To produce a video that fit the song lyrics, the shots were switched during Bushido's performance to the objects or persons which were mentioned; in addition, the background switches between the colours white and black. Eko Fresh and Baba Saad also had cameo appearances.
