Musical career:
Savas' career began with the recording Warum rappst du? ("Why do you rap?"). He gained attention with controversial lyrics in songs like Schwule Rapper ("Gay Rappers"), LMS (Lutsch mein' Schwanz, "Suck my dick"), and Pimplegioneah. Initially Savas rapped in English in groups like the Basic Elements. He became more successful in bands such as M.O.R. und Westberlin Maskulin together with the underground-rapper Taktloss. In 2001 he left his recording firm Put Da Needle To Da Records and the group M.O.R. itself because of personal and artistic differences.
In 2002 he released his first solo album Der beste Tag meines Lebens (The best day of my life) with his own recording company begun in the same year, Optik Records. He worked with many German and international artists including Azad, Curse, Moses Pelham, Samy Deluxe, RZA, J-Luv, Lumidee, Bligg, Jadakiss, Xavier Naidoo, and Smut Peddlers.
With his recording firm, he sought to build up and promote a number of artists, including for example Eko Fresh whom he discovered. Currently the following artists are under contract: DJ Nicon, Melbeatz, Ercandize, Caput, and Amar. The contract with the rapper SD ended because of musical differences and he left followed by his friend Spontan. At the moment Savas' little brother Sinan is also under contract.
At the end of 2004, Eko Fresh released the song Die Abrechnung in which he dissed Kool Savas. In February 2005, Kool Savas answered with the track Das Urteil ("The judgement"). The track was available for free download on the hip hop website Mzee.com and was accompanied by a video clip that was voted twenty times for first place on the MTV TRL charts.
In March 2005 he participated in an advertising campaign for the animals rights organization PETA in which he spoke against the consumption of meat.
Private life:
As a baby Savas returned to Turkey with his family at one years old. His father was arrested for political activities, forcing his mother to return to Aachen. In 1987 the reunited family moved to Berlin where Savas first came in contact with rap music. In 1997, he acted in the film Geschwister â Kardesler in the role of Ahmed.
He lives with his long-time girlfriend Melbeatz (Melanie) in Heidelberg. The relationship is also one of artistic and business collaboration as she makes many of his beats. They also are both vegetarians. At the end of 2004, there was a rumor that they were no longer together. Savas responded in the song Was hab' ich dir angetan? (What did I do to you?) on the album ONE.

Kool Savas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Look at ya last man standing
Yeah, look at ya last man standing (last man standing)
Two last man standing (two last man standing)
Look at ya last man standing, yeah
Last man standing
You won't catch the last man standing sittin' on top of the world
And all of the distraction around him is of no concern
'Cause he was put here for action he was placed here to learn
Aha ruf den KGB, CIA, BND
Universal brennt sowie EMI, Sony, BMG und Warner, kein A&R
Sagt mir was ich zu tun hab'
Zeig dem Rest der Welt den Finger nenn' mich Dubai
Was fĂŒr Rebellion, wir halten Wort nicht mehr und nicht weniger, sie
Reden ĂŒber's Album als das Thema ihr seid ekelhaft
Los geht auf den Strich oder fickt euch selbst, ich wichs' auf Geld
Selfmade Mios x&s Morpheus Neo
Blick hinter die Matrix (two of the best)
Zwei selbstbestimmte Artists (last men standing) bis zum letzten Atemzug
Sie kriegen die HĂ€lse nicht voll genug
Wir sind hier an der Front, Bruder, wo bist du?
KĂ€mpf mit uns, sample uns, remix, diese Worte, schrei sie raus laut distorted
Warn sie vor uns, Vorsicht
Kein Ego Film wir sind nur Botschafter fĂŒr diese Mucke hier sie kriegen sie niemals gebĂ€ndigt
LMS 2012 die neue Bedeutung last men standing
You won't catch the last man standing sittin' on top of the world
Because he won't stop can't stop till his voice is heard (till his voice is heard)
And all of the distraction around him is of no concern (is of no concern)
'Cause he was put here for action he was placed here to learn (yeah)
We will be the last men standing the last men standing (the last men standing oh whoa)
'Cause yes
We could withstand the branding (withstand the branding yeah)
We always had a hand in the planning
Always had a hand in the planning
You see the death is overcome the true MC has canned in (death is overcome the true MC has canned in yeah)
In "LMS" by Kool Savas, the lyrics are an empowering assertion of identity and purpose. The song is a showcase of the rapper's lyrical abilities, with each verse packed with allusions and wordplay. The chorus is an anthemic cry for unity among outsiders, the "last men standing" who are holding true to their principles and staying true to their craft. Despite the distractions and obstacles around them, the "last men standing" are driven by a higher purpose and are determined to make their voices heard, no matter what.
The first verse sets the tone, with Kool Savas asserting that the "last man standing" won't "sit on top of the world" but will keep fighting until their "voice is heard." The second verse is a commentary on the music industry, with Kool Savas calling out major labels like Universal, EMI, and Sony. He says that he and his fellow "last men standing" are self-made, independent artists who won't be held back by the industry's gatekeepers. The final verse is a call to action, with Kool Savas urging listeners to join the cause and fight alongside them, in support of the movement.
Overall, "LMS" is a powerful song that speaks to the struggles and triumphs of artists who are trying to navigate an industry that often feels rigged against them. With its catchy chorus and intense verses, the song is a testament to the power of music to bring people together in pursuit of a common goal.

Damals in der Klassenfahrt in der 10. hatte einer das Ding, damals noch auf Kasette. Unserem tĂŒrkischen Busfahrer gegeben der echt korrekt drauf war, er legt es ein und wir hören das wĂ€hrend der Fahrt.
Unserer Lehrer ist geschockt das es so was ĂŒberhaupt gibt, er konnte bestimmt 30 Sekunden nicht mal aufstehen bevor er nach vorne ging und das stoppte. Geile Zeit.
