Rap: Yung-Kafa and Kücük Efendi have left an exclamation mark with Mini-EP "Helmut"

The duo shook the German rap world for the first time almost two years ago. At that time, Kafa and Efendi released the mini EP "Helmut" and some singles. It was the first exclamation mark the two left behind. The track "Diamonds" counts almost 1.9 million views on YouTube. The video comes in an extravagant and artistic comic look. Yung Kafa and Kücük Efendi deliberately stage themselves as art figures.

After "Diamonds" came the mixtape "Uboot" in April 2019, which convinced the colleagues from rap.de. The newcomers were also well received by rap greats like Ufo361 . In the track "YKKE", Ufo was obviously strongly inspired by the music of the boys. Fans even rumored that "YKKE" stands for Yung Kafa and Kücük Efendi . On April 3rd, 2020 the next mixtape “Dickicht” of the two should follow. Does the duo's new work also convince?

Rap review: Yung Kafa and Kücük Efendi's mixtape “Dickicht” - it's really that good

So much can be revealed. Yung Kafa and Kücük Efendi consistently stay true to their style. That's a good thing. The intro " Checkmate " already shows why the two are considered an insider tip. With " I am the king here and you the beautiful lady ", Yung Kafa greets his audience. The whole thing is garnished with playful synths, autotune and a trap beat. The hook is catchy and a real catchy tune.

" Audemars 69 " is characterized by a melancholic melody, which defines the basic mood of the track. The beat is driving for that. " And I turn the wheel, kiss my hand, " raps Kücük Efendi. Yung Kafa's part is sometimes difficult to understand because the text is messy. But the more you listen to a song like this, the better you understand the content.

And it is also an advantage if you have a few Turkish words in your repertoire. "Kafa abi, storm the party, babies say you're dad, tabi tabi, sweet mommy, want my body, I'm with Gianni". “Abi” in German means “big brother” - “tabi tabi”, on the other hand, means “all clear”.

Rap: Yung Kafa and Kücük Efendi's "thicket" - "hyenas" is the highlight of the mixtape

" Monaco " is the most interesting track of the mixtape because it differs from the usual style of the duo. For one thing, Yung Kafa and Kücük Efendi don't rap on the trap. In addition, some voice not only come in Autotune, but sound much deeper than usual.

The beat is a tribute to old-school hip-hop or G-Funk from the 90s. " To all haters , we're traveling through time to Monaco 91, " Efendi explains appropriately. " Monaco oh Monaco, beautiful women, I am d'accord, " Kafa proudly announces.

"In the night, in the night I get energy, in the night, there is no harmony in the night", sings Yung Kafa. Then the powerful trap beat of " hyenas " sets in. "Everything laughs, everything creeps, hyenas want beef baby," adds Kafa. " The hyenas want to bite me, want to ride my wave, " raps Efendi.

In between a dog barks. "Hyenas" is the highlight of "Dickicht" - the track could also be meant as a tip against Ufo3601. Incidentally, the duo has not yet revealed whether this is actually the case. But it is quite conceivable.

"Dickicht" is very convincing - Yung Kafas and Kücük Efendi's work will polarize

Certainly not everyone will celebrate the consistent style of the two, as the music of Yung Kafa and Kücük Efendi is very polarizing. Nevertheless: The almost 42 minutes that the mixtape lasts fly by.

Yung Kafa and Kücük Efendi delivered exactly what they asked for. Autotune, and sometimes cryptic messages that meet high-quality beats. "Dickicht" , the new plant of the newcomers, knows how to convince.
