Rap and politics
Rapper Disarstar keeps a distance to the Left Party
Disarstar is a star in the left scene, but he still does not see himself in the Left Party. Why, he explains that with criticism and a portion of humor.
Left rapper, but not a left one: Despite his political self -image, Disarstar keeps a distance from the Left Party. “Why don’t I get involved in the left? I honestly wondering sometimes,” said the 31-year-old of the German Press Agency. “As an artist, I find it dubious to let myself be tensioned with a party policy cart. I see myself non -partisan,” said Disarstar, who is called Gerrit Falius with a bourgeois name.
There are “great tiles on Instagram and good take” on the left, but the practice does not convince him. “Then you look at voting results, for example, for the rich tax and think something is wrong.” He himself would like “democratic socialism and no social democratic capitalism”.
Politics even become an issue for him on Instagram. He follows many left -wing politicians – and they. Only with left-wing parliamentary group leader Heidi Reichinnek it still lacks: “I don’t follow anyone who doesn’t follow. But if Ms. Reichinnek follows me, there will be a follow-back within 30 seconds.”
On Friday, Falius, who describes himself “as Marxist”, released his new album “Hamburger uprising”. One of his most successful songs is “Siamo Tutti”, often described as an anti -fascist anthem. The title has already been called up at Spotify more than 6.7 million times.
