Danyal Bayaz is not only finance minister in Stuttgart, but also a hip-hop fan. And not without his own talent on the microphone.
Obviously, being finance minister doesn’t have to be coy. The great passion of the Baden-Württemberg department head Danyal Bayaz is hip-hop. On Thursday (local time) at an evening event in Los Angeles, the 38-year-old was carried away by a spontaneous rap interlude – and thus impressed his cabinet colleagues.
Bayaz grabbed the microphone and rapped down a song by the Heidelberg musician Torch. The text was about – of course, as usual – money. “I was born in Frankfurt am Main – in the German central bank as a 100-mark note,” was the introduction. Bayaz said a bet with Minister of State Florian Stegmann made him step onto the stage. Stegmann lured him with a crate of beer. “Hip-hop thrives on spontaneity,” says Bayaz. In any case, he received a lot of applause for his performance.
The framework was an event as part of the US trip of Baden-Württemberg’s Prime Minister Winfried Kretschmann (Greens) to promote German-American youth exchange. The rapper Max Herre (49, “Hallo Welt!”) from Baden-Württemberg appeared in front of the state politicians. Kretschmann admitted that he was more into jazz than hip-hop. However, his cabinet members danced along happily. “They are also younger than me,” said the 74-year-old Kretschmann of the dpa.
