Jung Brutal Gutaussehend 3 ("Young, violent, handsome 3"; also stylized as Jung, brutal, gutaussehend 3 and abbreviated as JBG 3) is the third collaborative studio album by German rappers Kollegah and Farid Bang. It was released on 1 December 2017 through Alpha Music Empire, Banger Musik, and BMG. Before the release of the album, Kollegah and Bang collaborated on Jung, brutal, gutaussehend in 2009 and Jung, brutal, gutaussehend 2 in 2013.
The album produced three singles, including "Gamechanger", "Ave Maria" and the number one single "Sturmmaske auf (Intro)", all of which received music videos. Kollegah and Farid Bang promoted the album with a limited box set and the JBG3-Tour in January 2018.
Jung Brutal Gutaussehend 3 debuted at number one on the German, Swiss and Austrian album charts. The album was certified platinum by Bundesverband Musikindustrie (BVMI) and gold by IFPI Austria. As of April 2018, the record has sold 207,500 album-equivalent units in German-speaking Europe, with incomes amounting to €4.3 million from physical album sales alone.[4][5]
Upon its release, the album received negative reviews from critics, with particular attention drawn to the production, misogyny and alleged antisemitism. The album won the Echo Music Prize in the Hip-Hop/Urban national category, which led to the prize being discontinued, following a controversy about antisemitic lyrics on the song "0815" on the bonus EP §185.
Background and release
[edit]Kollegah and Farid Bang first worked together on Jung, brutal, gutaussehend (2009). Their second collaborative album Jung, brutal, gutaussehend 2 (2013) became an immediate success and debuted on number one of the German, Austrian and Swiss Albumcharts. The album became their first to be gold-certified by the BVMI.[6] Both ventured back to solo releases between 2014 and 2018 and each released three studio albums. JBG 3 was first confirmed by Farid Bang on the single "Blut" of his seventh album Blut (2016).[7] In August 2016, Farid Bang announced on Facebook that the album would be released in 2017.[8] In September 2017 they confirmed that the album would be released on 1 December.[9]

Commercial performance

Music critics gave moderate to negative reviews of Jung Brutal Gutaussehend 3 upon its release. Max Brandl from laut.de gave the album three out of five stars. He criticized the songs "Frontload", "Massephase" and "Warlordz" for their "bumpy Kindergarten production". He also said that JBG 3 is "olympic powerlifting with insults".[32] Rappers.in gave the album 2.5 stars and said that the album "sounded like trash", with "superficial disses".[31] Noiseys, Juri Sternburg accuses them of "bad racism" under the cover of "artistic freedom". He also said that "JBG 3 is shallow and silly".[33] Tristan Heming described the lyrics of the album as disgusting: "Rape, racism, Hitler and Stalin name-dropping and Holocaust references. All of this is actually so disgusting in its mass that one could puke."[36]
Echo controversy
[edit]As the Echo Music Prize is determined by the previous year's sales, Jung Brutal Gutaussehend 3 was nominated in the categories best hip hop/urban album and album of the year. German tabloid paper Bild accused Farid Bang and Kollegah of antisemitic lyrics on their song "0815", which was included on the bonus EP §185.[37] They referred to their muscles being more defined than those of Auschwitz inmates.[38]
Campino, singer of the German rock band Die Toten Hosen, was the first to criticize the committee's decision during the ceremony. His remarks received a standing ovation from the audience.[39] Several artists later returned their Echo awards in protest, such as Marius Müller-Westernhagen, who returned all of his seven Echo awards received over the years. Other artists returning their awards were German conductors Christian Thielemann and Enoch zu Guttenberg, Russian-German pianist Igor Levit, record producer Klaus Voormann and the Notos Quartett.[38]
However, criticism did not only come from artists and the German press. Several businesses joined in, with Tom Enders, CEO of Airbus, being one of the most recent high-profile commentators, saying that this would hurt "Germany's international reputation". He also asked if "antisemitism [was] becoming acceptable in Germany" again. As a consequence the Echo award was discontinued after the controversy.[40]
Kollegah and Farid Bang were sued for Volksverhetzung (incitement to hatred) on 24 April 2018.[41] On 16 June 2018 the investigation was suspended by the state's attorney in Düsseldorf.[42] Kollegah apologized for the lyrics, following a visit to Auschwitz II–Birkenau in June 2018.[43] In an interview with German newspaper Stern, Kollegah said "when you see for yourself how people were systematically killed, you'll never forget that. You become more careful and respectful." The continued with, "the Holocaust doesn't fit into hip hop."[44]
Indexing
[edit]The record was put on the index by the Federal Department for Media Harmful to Young Persons in Germany. The songs "Gamechanger", "Wenn der Gegner am Boden liegt" on JBG 3 and "0815" and "Ghettosuperstars 2" on the §185 EP became part of the decisive dicission. The songs have a "discriminatory effect against woman".[45][46] JBG and JBG 2 have been indexed in 2012 and 2014.[47][48]
