about
Rapsoul was a German hip-hop group. Jan Färger and Steve Neumann initially collaborated on remixes for the Frankfurt-based record label 3p. Among their early work were remixes for Glashaus’s single "Du," for which the band rewrote the chorus, and a remix for Sabrina Setlur’s single "Baby." Performing under the name Dreckskind & Pechvogel—Jan as "Dreckskind" and Steve as "Pechvogel"—the duo completed their first joint appearances and released an EP titled "LebensArt." Planet radio was among the first broadcasters to recognize their talent, featuring one of their songs in the Do It Yourself segment in 2004. Shortly after, they became part of the Chill-&-Grill-Tour, which toured Hessian swimming pools during the summer. The band also attracted attention from RTL during this period. Färger and Neumann, together with soul singer C. J. Taylor, renamed the group Rapsoul, reflecting their musical style. Following successful live performances, Rapsoul joined the Backstreet Boys as an opening act during their October 2005 tour of Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Their debut album, "Unbeschreiblich," produced in collaboration with Offenbach-based producer team Nachtwandler, was released on March 31, 2006. The first single, "Verzweifelt," released on November 25, 2005, reached the German Top 20 and remained on the charts for several weeks. The second single, "Gott schenk’ ihr Flügel," was released on March 17, 2006, followed by the third single, "Du und ich," on June 23, 2006. All
