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.

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.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wenn du mich siehst grüß und geh weiter
Du stehst mir leider im Weg
Weil du dich weigerst mich zu verstehen!
Du bringst keinen guten Vibe in mein Leben
Außer Pein und Ekel!
Doch ich schreib und halte weiter dagegen!

Wenn der Ärger sich staut

Stress an dir saugt
Dich hindert und schlaucht
Die Kraft, die Macht, die nur du hast
Ball die Hände zur Faust, lauf geradeaus
Gib nicht auf
Kein Hass, kein Zwang, hab keine Angst
Wenn sich der Himmel ergraut
Geh rauf und reiß ihn auf
Dein Weg, dein Ziel, viel Mut bleibt real
Solang du nach oben schaust
Vertraust und an Gott glaubst
Du siehst und folgst deinem Herz zum Ziel

Während andere Fronten wie Stars und
Meinen besser zu sein
Geh ich lieber zurück nach Hause
Und schreibe einen besseren Rhyme
Esse Rapper wie Daim
Ich hab kein Interesse an deinem
Pain und baue an Lines
Um mich von dem Stress zu befreien

Es ist schwer zu beschreiben
So dass du es verstehst
Es ist schwer zu beschreiben
So dass du es verstehst

Du willst nicht sehen wie man weitergeht
Sondern stoppt oder fällt
Stellst dich einfach in meinen Weg
Wie ein Block oder Fels
Glaubst alles was ich schreibe füllt
Die Potte mit Geld
Und bitte sag etwas weniger vom
Herzen und mehr Pisse
Sieh, ich war früher anders in
Den texten als jetzt
Weil ich dachte alles ist witzig
Über Bitches und Sex
Bis zum Punkt an dem du peilst
Ich sag nix in den Tracks
Außer alles ist Müll
Alles ist beschissen und wack

Wenn du mich siehst grüß und geh weiter
Du stehst mir leider im Weg
Weil du dich weigerst mich zu verstehen!
Du bringst keinen guten Vibe in mein Leben

Außer Pein und Ekel!
Doch ich schreib und halte weiter dagegen!
