Fettes Brot

Fettes Brot (german for "fat bread") is a German hip hop group founded in early 1992. Because the formation is still around today the guys sometimes refer to it as "Hamburg's hip-hop-dinosaur".

History:
When the group Poets of Peeze disbanded in 1992, its members Doktor Renz (Martin Schrader, now Martin Vandreier) and Tobi Tobsen together with König Boris ("King Boris", Boris Lauterbach), Schiffmeister (Björn Warns) and Mighty founded Fettes Brot. The two Schmidt brothers, Tobi & Mighty, left early on to persue other projects. The bands first album, the EP "Mitschnacker", was released by the remaining trio on Yo Mama Records. Prior to Mitschnacker the songs Schwarzbrot-Weißbrot ("Blackbread-Whitebread") and Schule der Gewalt ("School of violence") appeared on the sampler "Endzeit 93" from the Independent label Wilde Welt ("Wild World") Records.

Members:
Boris Lauterbach (aka König Boris, Kay Bee Baby, Rock'n'Roll Coseng)
Martin Schrader (aka Doktor Renz, Rektor Donz, Speedy Konsalik, Martin Vandreier)
Björn Warns (aka Schiffmeister, Björn Beton)
