1) German rapper Anis Ferchichi who was born on September 28, 1978 in Bonn. His rap is strongly influenced by French Gangsta Rap. He is also known as Sonny Black.
Early Life:
Bushido has a Tunisian father and a German mother. However, he was raised in Berlin by his mother and never got to know his father.
Musical Career:
In 2000 he began his musical career. He gained recognition through King Orgasmus One and his works on several "I Luv Money Records"-Releases. Soon he released his first tape King Of Kingz. This led to him moving to a new label Aggro Berlin, where he worked with Sido, B-Tight, and Fler. The album was later released on CD in 2003 as King Of Kingz (Digital Remastered) and in 2004 as the King of Kingz 2004 Edition with some remixes. In 2002 he released the legendary milestone underground-album Carlo Cokxxx Nutten under his pseudonym, Sonny Black (arguably in the same manner as Eminem), in which he worked with Fler also known as Frank White.
His first Solo-Album was released in 2003, which is called "Vom Bordstein bis zur Skyline". This album had a lot of good reviews and was titled the first real Gangster Rap album in Germany. It was an enormous success for what was still basically an underground release.
Because of artistic differences regarding his future solo career, he left his label, Aggro Berlin, in the summer of 2004 and was taken under contract by Urban/Universal. In 2004, together with Ilan, he produced a remix of the industrial metal group Rammstein's song Amerika. In October 2004 he released his third album Electro Ghetto which reached number six on the German charts. On April 4, 2005 he released his fourth LP in two and half years, Carlo Cokxxx Nutten II, once again using his alter ego Sonny Black and working with Baba Saad in replacement of Fler.
In the winter of 2004/2005, he played a central role in a dispute with the rapper Eko Fresh and also made the song "FLERräter" against his former colleague at Aggro Berlin Fler (a play on the word Verräter, which means traitor).
Legal trouble found its way into his life following a party in Linz, Austria on July 30th, 2005. Upon discovery that his tyres had been slashed, he and two of his bodyguards were involved in a physical altercation with a 20 year old male, who was left with severe head injuries. Bushido spent 15 days in jail before being released on €100,000 bail. He faces a 3 year sentence if convicted.
On the judgemend day he released his Album "Staatsfeind Nr.1" (Public Enemy Nr. 1).
Most people called his time in jail a big promotion for this Album.
The second sampler ersguterjunge Sampler Vol. 2 - Vendetta was released the 1st of December 2006. It features artists who are signed to his Label ersguterjunge. The only single of the Sampler is called "Vendetta" and features Bushido, Eko Fresh and Chakuza.
In 2007 he won another ECHO-award as best hip hop/rap artist. His albums have earned platinum status in Germany, making him the most successful rapper ever in his homeland.
The album, 7 was released on August 31st, 2007 in Germany. As of August 24th, 7 has already pre-sold 100,000 copies in Germany, making it a gold record.
Bushido released his Biography Bushido on 8 September 2008 and his 8th album Heavy Metal Payback was released on 10 October. The singles are: "Ching Ching" and "Für immer jung" (which features Karel Gott).
Controversy:
Somewhat ironically, Bushido's admirers include both immigrants and extreme right-wing youth, which has drawn caution and criticism in Germany. He is often criticized in the media for his allegedly sexist, nationalist, and racist lyrics and for refusing to reject some of his controversial fans. However, some point to his partial North African ethnicity and collaboration with minority artists, like Azad, Eko Fresh, and Cassandra Steen, as evidence Bushido is not racist.
2) 'Bushido' is the name of a one-shot collaboration between some of the best known singer/songwriters from the current generation of rock singers in Spain. The singers involved in the Bushido project are: Búnbury, Carlos Ann, Shuarma and Mortí. They sat together for a couple of weeks and came out with a collection of pop-rock songs that showcase each of their styles and thematic inclinations.
3)Bushido were an obscure post-punk band from the early 80's similar in style to early Cabaret Voltaire/Eric Random etc.
4) Bushido are a progressive rock, three piece from Melbourne, Australia. They have released 2 EP's entitled 'Last Breath' and 'Mercina'. They play music in a similar vein to other Australian bands such as 'The Butterfly Effect', 'Cog' and 'Karnivool'. They are currently writing songs for their debut album set to be released early 2008.

Bushido Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wer von euch Pennern kann sich noch an mich erinnern?
Ihr seid immer noch alle scheiße, also bleibt weg aus unserer Stadt
Ha
Yeah, Oh
Und lasst ersguterjunge die richtigen Ansagen machen
Billy, okay
Yeah
Es gibt kein Überleben (oh nein)
Sorry Jungs, doch ich werde mit keinem von euch Punks darüber reden
Ich bin kalt, guckt ich bin immer noch
Immer noch dieser Typ, der die Kinder boxt
Hörst du mein Herz schlagen, denn es pumpt Kilohertz
Kommt nach Berlin und ich verkaufe euch ein Kilo Schmerz
Ihr könnt euch aufregen, geht und hängt euch auf
Doch es ist Fakt, dass dieses Land einen Gangster braucht
Guckt, die Fans sind drauf, hört ihr die Kinder reden
Ich habe seit Jahren schon Koks unter den Fingernägeln
Ich bin ein Terrorist, der gerne mit Hero tickt
Das einzige, was mir jetzt auffällt ist, wie gay du bist
Ich lasse mich blicken und verursache Hysterie
Du willst schnell sterben, komm her, ich wüsste wie
Die deutsche Jugend ist ein Fass ohne Boden
Für mich fast so hart wie ein Tag ohne Drogen
Mir war von Anfang an klar, dass ich Neider hab'
Doch leider nimmt euch euer Gangster-Image leider keiner ab
Ich muss ins Ghetto zurück, falls es mit dem Rappen nicht klappt
Ein Wort gegen uns und ich steche euch ab
Wer hört euch dann
Wir regieren Deutschland
Du musst fliehen, wenn diese beiden kommen
Für euch ist es aus, es gibt leider kein Entkommen
Machst du einen Track fragt sich jeder wieso
Mache ich einen Track freut sich jeder Idiot
Was du anfässt landet wieder im Klo
Komm mach es wie dein Berliner Idol
Ghettorap hin, Ghettorap her
Das Leben ist nur eine große Runde, wer wird Millionär, yeah
Ich bin der neue Star, Bushido meint es ernst mit Saad
Und eure deutschen Eltern kriegen jetzt nen Herzinfarkt
Sehe mich bei VIVA selbst und auch bei TRL
Dann gehe ich auf die Straße und verteile wieder Schellen
Es geht mir viel zu schnell, guck her, ich werde verfolgt
Überall werde ich erkannt, doch es quatscht mich keiner voll
Sie haben Angst vor Saad, sie haben Angst vor mir
Ich bin erst neunzehn Jahre alt, ihr seid pensioniert
Jetzt bin ich der, den du nie wieder bei ALDI siehst
Scheiß auf eure Baggy-Pants, ich rappe in Picaldi-Jeans
Lad mich zu Shows ein, ich bin nämlich schwer daneben
Ich bin jetzt der Held in meiner Stadt, so wie Werder Bremen
Es war unmöglich und doch ist es wahr geworden
Ich bin nach einem Jahr Rap jetzt zum Star geworden
Du bist nur Untergrund, du kommst nicht groß raus
Wenn meine Freunde kommen ist für euch der Ofen aus
Es ist der Drogenrausch, eure Kinder ziehen Koks
Ersguterjunge, brrä, Carlo Cokxxx Nutten-Flow
Wer hört euch dann
Wir regieren Deutschland
Du musst fliehen, wenn diese beiden kommen
Für euch ist es aus, es gibt leider kein Entkommen
The lyrics to Bushido’s song “Deutschland” is controversial, laden with profanity and politically charged. The opening lines of the song, “Ey, ihr Homos, wer von euch Pennern kann sich noch an mich erinnern?” can be translated to “Hey, you homos, which of you bums can still remember me?” This line has been criticized for homophobia, and the song as a whole has been tied to far-right extremism in Germany.
Throughout the song, Bushido asserts his dominance and control over Germany. He refers to himself as a gangster, terrorist, and drug dealer who can provide the youth with what they need. He also mentions that he has haters and envious individuals who do not believe his claims to power; hence he must go back to the ghetto if his music career does not work out. The lyrics promote and glorify violence, crime, and substance abuse. They suggest that Bushido, along with his record label, er-sguterjunge, have the power to rule parts of Germany and even take control of the entire country.
While the song was a commercial success in Germany and other parts of Europe, it attracted criticism for its violent and profane lyrics, which were deemed to be glorifying crime and substance abuse. Some found the lyrics to be misogynistic, homophobic, and encouraging extremist and far-right views. The song was banned in some parts of Germany, and Bushido faced backlash, including legal action for incitement to violence.
