6 songs to get into German rap music as an English speaker

I’ll start off by saying, if lyrics and narrative are important to you in rap music, this is probably not the thread for you. I’m super into melody and beats, which I find these artists have a very unique selection of. Also, I can’t understand any of it, but it’s straight vibes.
These are in no particular order:
1.) RIN - Fabergé
https://open.spotify.com/track/7BYf1rypxrlcLK2DMLSjiw?si=OvUUxgd-SgCkisVaZMrdnw
This was the first German rap song I heard, and it clicked immediately. RIN is one of the more popular artists in Germany. He uses lots of English words and American references. So it’s good to start off.

2.) BHZ - So Leban Kann

It seems like German artists either come in singles or groups of many. This is the first group I found, I rlly fw their shit. This chorus just bangs so hard, peep

3.) Yung Hurn - Ponny

NGL this song is kind of gimmicky, but the bass super chunky and satisfying, this is just a funny track, worth a listen lol

4.) 102 Boyz, BHZ - Bier
https://open.spotify.com/track/7pbU4vJyxiVvDSPmQ2FDf8?si=OtTCjEQaTjKlASJl_ka-hQ
This track has two German rap groups on it. I would not recommend this track to the feint of heart. It goes HARD, screaming type shit. I really fw it, because you can just rage out, but if that’s not ya thing, steer clear.

5.) Elias - Benzo
https://open.spotify.com/track/6mKSnoOnY5qYg88PbxW7Ph?si=8jts1w8zSgWNhSYPLe0wFw
Elias is easily the most consistent German artist I’ve found. Every song is a banger, this is no different. Upbeat trap, heavy 50 influence on all his music. It’s fantastic and highly recommend his whole discog and recent album

6.) RIN - Avirex
https://open.spotify.com/track/76hTV1J1bMqLtLLSaT0oUt?si=Q5ZCXInmQtO5LnBlqY0LEw
Lastly, my favorite German rap song I’ve found thus far. This beat just hits different, the high energy ad libs, the beat switch at the end, all come together make such a unique futuristic trap sounds I genuinely really fw.
