Well I've had Spanish rap, Italian rap and even, I think, Portugese rap (who knows anymore?), and now here comes some German rap. Well, hip-hop (are they the same?) - it's not bad when it starts, a sort of dark trap feel to the opener and then “Diamanten” sounds like it gets a little ethnic, with flutes and accordions and things, presumably in the samples, but as usual information is hard to come by so I have to guess. I definitely recognise the sample in “Mehr Als Ein Job”, but again I can't place it. Might be “Alone” by Heart, not sure. “Einfach” is pretty catchy, with a good pounding beat, and then the title track (which I assume translates to “good night”) is a slow, traplike thing, also quite good. “Lass Mal” is very bouncy too. Not bad really, not bad at all. Sehr gut!
