He is one of Germany’s most successful solo rap musicians while also releasing albums as a member of two separate crews, Dynamite Deluxe (with DJ Dynamite aka Joni Rewind and Tropf) and ASD (with Afrob). He recently started his own record label, Deluxe Records. The beats of his record "Verdammtnochma" (Goddamnit!) were mainly made by US producers, which gives the record a very American sound.

Childhood:
Samy Deluxe grew up with his mothers family as his Sudanese father left Germany when Samy was just two years old. Shortly after this event his half-sister was born. After living in Barmbek for many years they then moved to Eppendorf, a generally better-off suburb of Hamburg. Given this contrast - he certainly did not come from a well-off background - and his constant problems at school with teachers who he often defied, he looked for a release and a way to express himself away from school. He soon discovered music.

Style:
Samy modelled himself on American hip hop. This gave him a great sense of caring for his family, although he boasts of having had a good relationship with his mother and the people who looked after him. He practised all year long writing lyrics and spitting them, he has outstanding freestyling skills. Even his fiercest rivals have admitted that he is one of the best Freestylers in Germany.

Audacious and eloquent, Samy initially chose an aggressive style, based on imaginative use of metaphors, complex overlapping rhymes and his own melodic flow. He favours constructing contantly changing pictures rather than telling long stories. Critics find fault with his limited content and repetitive subjects, but Sam Semillia (as he calls himself, taken from the non-toxis form of the cannabis plant, Sinsemilia) has responded by saying that he can only rap in the style and about the subjects that feel real to him.

Starting Out:
Before working with Dynamite Deluxe he was a member of German Hip Hop group "No Nonsens". He became very well known due to his many guest appearances on the CDs put out by hip hop artists such as Freundeskreis, the Stieber Twins, Main Concept, Eins Zwo, Ferris MC, Absolute Beginner, Das Bo and 5 Sterne Deluxe. It was the latter group in particular that he performed many concerts with. He also took it upon himself to do the festivals all over Germany in order to make a name for himself.

In das Badebecken rap unter Wasser ich
Hab diabolische Mongolunge

Jetzt komm' mal runter glaub' mir das

Ist gar nicht schlimm mann
Ich hingegen bin so hart behindert ich
Häng' jeden Tag im Wartezimmer
Arzt sagt immer ich seh' zu viel Negatives
Ich sag ey mann sieh' es endlich
Ein ich leid' an Hateritis

Hateritis yeah der Beat is grad'
Richtig für so'n Hypochondersong
Ich hab steife Nacken wollte lüften
Und das kommt davon

Richtig miese Briese hier im Sportcoupé drin
Ich wollt noch ein Rohr verlegen
Doch muss erst zum Orthopäden
Ohne Rollstuhl kann ich mich
Heut nicht mehr fortbewegen
Hab' mich wohl verrenkt ich
Wollte Kamasutra-Pornos drehen

Super Pornoszenen und ich
Bin abergläubisch pharmazeutisch
Habe glaub ich Scharlach heute schade Leute?
Denn meine Inkubationszeit ist
Noch nicht vorbei es kann sein dass ihr bald
Tot seid - So'n Scheiß

Der Kopf schmerzt Der Fuß hängt der
Hals juckt das Knie knackt
Ich geh' ins Pflegeheim zieh'
Jedem seine Medizin ab
Wetten ich geh bald drauf
Zeckenbiss beim Waldlauf
Hektisch ersetze ich die Ketten
Mit paar Halskrausen

Ich hab mir schon freiwillig
Schwere Verletzungen zugezogen
Weil ich wusste die Doktoren
Verschreiben dann gute Drogen

Mein Immunsystem ist ohne Spaß
Chronisch am Arsch
No Homo ich meine No Homöopath

Gar kein Imodium vertrag'

Keine Peilung von Weibern ich wart'
Auf Heilung von Heilern
Mein Arzneischrank hat die Größe
Von Thailand bekomm'?
Die Nase dicht die Haare licht -
Geht's dir gut- Ne grade nicht
Die ganzen anderen Rapper haben
Wohl Verdacht auf Arschgesicht

Ich hab mich grad zum Arzt geschickt
Ich glaube ich werd wahnsinnig
Die Ärzte sagten sie sind hilfreich
Aber Homie waren sie nicht

Allergie gegen Tageslicht deshalb plan'
Ich mein abendlichen Arztbesuch
Und denke, man
Zum Glück bin ich privatversichert

Ja Ich bin ein harter Wichser
Schau wie ich den Arm im Gips hab
Falls ich Eis am Handgelenk hab
Nur weil ich zu hart gewichst hab

Ja das ist ein hartes Schicksal und
Es hört sich komisch an
Doch ich mein das nicht ironisch, man
Wir beide hier sind chronisch krank

Overall Meaning

The song "Hypochondria" by Samy Deluxe addresses the theme of hypochondria, which is the excessive fear or preoccupation with having a serious illness. The lyrics depict the singer, Samy, as someone who constantly worries about his health and visits doctors frequently. He introduces himself as Samy and references his medical conditions, such as "diabolische Mongolunge" (diabolical Mongol tongue) and "Hateritis" (hatred).

Samy acknowledges that his worries are irrational and tries to downplay them, telling others to calm down and assuring them that it's not that bad. He humorously describes his various imagined health issues, like a stiff neck from wanting to "lüften" (air out) or a bad breeze in his sports car. These exaggerated scenarios highlight his tendency to overreact.

The lyrics also touch on Samy's reliance on medication and his belief that doctors will prescribe him drugs if he purposely injures himself. He refers to his immune system as being "chronically fucked" and expresses his desire for endorsement deals with pharmaceutical companies, even though he doesn't actually tolerate the medication Imodium.

Samy further reveals his lack of understanding about relationships with women and his belief that healers will eventually cure him. He portrays himself as constantly seeking medical help and having a large medicine cabinet, comparing its size to Thailand. He also sarcastically mentions other rappers possibly having an "Arschgesicht" (assface), a humorous insult suggesting they are obsessed with their looks.

Towards the end of the song, Samy explains that he was sent to the doctor and feared going insane. He expresses disappointment with the doctors' lack of help and the fact that they were not as helpful as he hoped. He concludes by repeating the phrases "I have back pain, I need crutches" and "Hyper-Hypochondriac" multiple times, emphasizing his obsession with his health.

Overall, "Hypochondria" showcases Samy Deluxe's self-awareness of his hypochondriac tendencies and presents them with a mix of humor and exaggeration. The lyrics illustrate the struggles and anxieties faced by individuals with hypochondria while also shedding light on the humorous aspects of their thought processes.
