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 – 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.
So Hot
Kool Savas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's a new era, cop constructs, and fuck wallabes
Send apologies, whoever's ridin' with the rivalry
The cops is in my pocket, they profitin' off of bribery
You can plot on me and be a body for a robbery
A nigga juug me, it'll be like he hit the lottery
Couple out the shotty and spin 'em like wet pottery
Like tickets you get clipped with the fifth - it's irony
To me you're tiny, I spit 9 where you spine be
Never mind me, a scale of 1 - 10 I'm 90
You off the wall but I'm off the planet, they can't find me
Sometimes these niggas of mine remind me
I might be nice and see you sign me, I kindly
Rise to the top or you slide to the bottom and fall
My peers tote 'em in their drawers and pants like balls
I like the force, a sight for sore eyes
I make wives, lil' tykes and all cry
So you can all try, all guys, all size
Me up but the nina heat up you cacarochas
Small fries, you niggas is chocha
I can see in both eyes, you wouldn't splash water in a boat ride
Half feminine, nigga you showin' both sides
I'm hot and you're a rope tie - knot
Alles was wir in Angriff nehmen wird so hot
Ihr könnt nichts mehr machen, unser Shit ist so hot
Wir kommen in den Spot ... Boom, blown up
So, so what? Das hier ist so hot
Alles was wir in Angriff nehmen wird so hot
Ihr könnt nichts mehr machen, unser Shit ist so hot
Wir kommen in den Spot ... Boom, blown up
So, so what? Das hier ist so hot
Ich spitt heißer, lass eure Fassade bröckeln als käm ich mit Enteiser
Hab das Game in der Hand wie mein Sennheiser
Der Endrhymer, ich spitt einmal und ihr flennt einfach
Ihr probiert's zwar eifrig, doch kommt scheinbar leider nicht mehr weiter
Scheiße, drum bleibt chillig und geht, denn dieser MC hier killt dich wie Aids
Ich spitt zu dick für ne Diät, du dagegen billig wie Base
Mach kein Fez, Homes, lass es
Was wollt ihr Homos noch machen?
Der beste Rapper im Land ist der Sohn von Fazli
Früher fuhr ich Carrerabahn, jetzt kann ich Carrera fahrn
Und euch bleibt nur bittrer Geschmack im Mund wie nach Lebertran
Und ihr Spinner hört den Alarm, kommt mal zum Punkt jetzt
Denn der größte Rapper im Land ist der Onkel von Wung
S-A, der Champ, der unumstrittene beste der Besten
Und ich betrachte was ihr macht voller Desinteresse
Eure Zeit ist vorbei wie gestern, aus, Ende, Finito
Dis ist Optik 4 Life, wir fighten weiter wie Steve Biko
Ein Team, auch ohne Trikot, Ihr könnt uns nicht ab wie du
Sieh dich an, ich und Du ist wie ein Cayenne und n Vito
Wir kommen wie die Kripo, spreng dein Arsch wie per Nitroglyzerin und Dynamit
Und Bang, ab aufn Friedhof, Oh! oh!
Alles was wir in Angriff nehmen wird so hot
Ihr könnt nichts mehr machen, unser Shit ist so hot
Wir kommen in den Spot ... Boom, blown up
So, so what? Das hier ist so hot
