Deutscher Jam presents:
Hallo Leute! Through the music I found a close tie on issues being dealt with in between both the United States and Germany in regards to social, economic, and political issues. In Germany we call Volkswagen the people’s car, a vehicle meant to be a cheap, great quality, and any class of people could afford to be used as a statement. Whether one had a classic Beetle, toned Jetta, speedy Golf, or groovy Van everyone had a place in the eyes of Volkswagen. Hip-Hop like Volkswagen is a cheap, quality driven, entity that could be used as a statement from anyone regardless of background to have a bold voice in society. Hip-Hop, the people’s language has shown me growing up that through bold expression how to deal with social issues and embrace one’s differences. Digging deeper I noticed growing up bi-racial and fluent in two languages that I always felt displaced within two worlds in regards of identity. What does it mean to be German? Do you have to be white to be German? Can you have different ethnicity, be born or raised in a country, embrace the culture and due to the pigment of your skin or texture of your hair still be called German?
