Foreign Pop Music Seeed German Reggae

Hey guys! It's been a while since I've done one of these, so I thought It would be time for another.....

Foreign Pop Extravaganza!

In this episode, if German reggae rap can be popular and win awards, whats stopping you from rapping?

Orgin: Germany 

Language: German and English

Style of Music: Reggae, Rap, Dancehall 

For Fans Of: Top 50, Island Music

Good For: Watching your friends confused looks when you tell them you listen to German Reggae 

Mainstreamability: 3/10 (I'm sorry, I like the stuff, but my friends who aren't German can't stand it :/ )

Associated Acts: Peter Fox, Bounzound, Delle, and Tanya Stephens


It took some time for me to find Seeed. One of my friends is a German exchange student and she would show me a lot of pop music but I could never get into to it. I find The German language and Reggae (Its true!!!!) goes kinda hand in hand. I found this on my own though actually when I was just surfing through the top 40 in various different countries as well as some other really cool artists (But that's for another time kiddies) 

Okay: I'll start with the first song I heard of in which I have absolutely no idea whats going on, or what he's saying, but Yet I always try to sing along. Augenbling! 


Augen Augen Blingin Blingin! Sigh...I wish I could speak German......Its a really fun song to dance to though! If I had to guess what it was about, I would guess that it would be about just letting go and dancing and having fun when your life is under stress or you're having a hard time. Give it a try! Its definetly my favorite song so far of this artist! And theres a random English break! Really random! 



This one is called Aufstehn and its a little more laid back, more of an island feel instead of a dance vibe. This one is a little easier to understand since there is more English and it just looks like some guys relaxin' on a boat. And there's CeeLo Green! The scenery is nice. Good chill music!


Then theres this one.....What You Deserve Is What You Get...with random dancing cavemen pillaging the cities! Hooray! I liked the song, but the music video....was a little much. Sorry. I've decided that I don't really like there music videos so much. But I like there music better. They also had a music video called Ding and.....Holyclaymationgorillaflirting it was strange. Here's What You Deserve for you all 



Well.....In conclusion I can't say I'm much in German music. The tone is still a little harsh for me, and Its a music taste that I think takes a while to get into. There is some certain songs that will certainly be showing up on my Ipod. 

Give it a try! If you like it, more power to you! Maybe you didn't even know the German reggae genre existed! Maybe now you'll become a German reggae artist and you thank me in the future. (You're welcome, just invite me to one of your concerts.

Tell me what you all think! If you'd like me to review another artist write them in the comments section below!
