Their most outstanding feature has been that all the songs performed by BAP are in Kölsch, the local ripoarian language (or German dialect) spoken in Cologne and its vicinity, which is hardly understood in other parts of Germany. BAP had their greatest successes in the 1980s, when they stormed the national charts with a number of subsequent singles. Their all-time number one is "Verdamp lang her".
During the peace movement in the 80s they played concerts on demonstrations and were dedicated to the disarmament in Germany and Europe.
2) BAP!! (Brigada Anti Polizialak) is an influential Basque Hardcore fusion band. Formed in 1984 and disbanded in 1996, they only released 3 albums partly because the drummer joined Negu Gorriak but achieved the cult band status thanks to their open minded fusion of styles and powerful live performances. Later 3 of the members formed Inoren Ero Ni.
3) BAP. is the stage name of Jakarta-based rapper and producer Kareem Soenharjo. He also goes by the name of Yosugi as a producer, DJ, and the frontman the noise quartet BAPAK.

The lyrics of BAP's "Helfe Kann Dir Keiner" (No One Can Help You) talks about the feeling of being alone and helpless amidst difficult situations. It speaks about feeling completely broken and lost because someone you relied on isn't there for you anymore. The first verse describes a scenario where everything seems to be falling apart because somebody close to you suddenly leaves. The second verse talks about how you feel like you have no place to go or no one to talk to after the incident, leaving you alone with your thoughts. The chorus suggests that nobody can offer help except for their words of comfort and encouragement, and that eventually, things will get better.
Furthermore, the song emphasizes the importance of being kind to those who are going through a difficult time, as we never know how much of an impact we have on someone's life. The bridge offers a glimmer of hope, talking about being able to collect yourself, move on, and find the light at the end of the tunnel, even if it might mean leaving everything behind. The lyrics are simple but powerful, conveying deep emotions that anyone can relate to.

Mein erstes Konzert überhaupt, "Zwesche Salzjebäck un Bier", Sartori in Köln. 14 Mark für 4,5 Stunden Programm...

Mein 1. BAP-Konzert war es nicht, aber da war ich auch. Am Schluss spielten sie nur noch Stones, Dylan & Co., weil sie keine eigenen Songs mehr hatten nach den ganzen Stunden Konzert. :) - Eine der ehrlichsten und menschlichsten Bands, die es in D jemals gab, auch nach all den Jahren noch. Danke, Wolfgang, Major (hatten nette Abende im "Harvey's Bremsen haben versagt" :D) & Ihr Anderen für mehrere Jahrzehnte, die Ihr mein Leben mit toller Musik begleitet habt!
