You are a bike-riding subhuman
My raps destroy careers like participation in jungle camps
Nicknames like muscle man suit me
Because I'm standing at the door at night
from Patrick and freeze, yeah
I see Kitty Kat in skin-tight clothes
Instead of sucking or cooking, bounce like a cunt
I fuck Paul and the Carrot because you guys are cunts
B-Tight's last meal will be the curb
187, I squeal tires
And if you see you in the Benz, then only in the side mirrors
I fuck this scene
I'm not a chauffeur, but there's a lot of talk behind my back
Banger music that one on the street
Rap crews are like prime numbers, only one is straight
Fuck G-Hot's mother until he thinks I'm his father
And I'm so muscular, I use Laas as a sword
Before I was one myself, I was addicted to celebrity cocaine
I was a businessman and had Jay in my portfolio
Others pay protection money, they are fake anyway
But not me, I'm not Johnny Fontaine
Everyone falls one after the other, it's Domino Day
All I need is a microphone and a protein shake
Others pay protection money, they are fake anyway
But not me, I'm not Johnny Fontaine
I was bitten many times, but it always went well
So many stitches, AOK is thinking about insurance fraud
Chakuza, he usually lives under bridges
And was a chef, because pussies belong in the kitchen
Destroy yourself, you mosquito, fuck MCs
I've got more pussy on me than a stickle beat
I only train muscles that you see in the disco
And you have to bake little rolls, like pizzerias
The German Mr. T, a show-off by profession
And if I sit on the train, then only as a subway thug
Material society, whoever has money fucks
I get more mothers to come than a parent-teacher conference
I made sacrifices, today I'm getting big applause
Masculine also brought out victims as a rapper
I make a gangster sound, shoot shot into the bitch
Your mom is like a shisha, nothing works without coal
Before I was one myself, I was addicted to celebrity cocaine
I was a businessman and had Jay in my portfolio
Others pay protection money, they are fake anyway
But not me, I'm not Johnny Fontaine
Everyone falls one after the other, it's Domino Day
All I need is a microphone and a protein shake
Others pay protection money, they are fake anyway
But not me, I'm not Johnny Fontaine
You ask, who did I diss? Nyze and Illmatic
Harris, Doreen, Curse and Kitty Kat, the bitch
B-Tight, C-A-P-U-T, Sierra Kidd, Nazar
Silla, Reason, Patrick and Amar
Marsimoto, MOK, Tony D and also Laas
S-E-K-T-E, Jihad, Fuhrmann, Bendt and Kaas
Miss Platnum, Ferris, Chakuza, Illo
Yasha, Das Bo, Franky Kubrick and Sido
Before I was one myself, I was addicted to celebrity cocaine
I was a businessman and had Jay in my portfolio
Others pay protection money, they are fake anyway
But not me, I'm not Johnny Fontaine
Everyone falls one after the other, it's Domino Day
All I need is a microphone and a protein shake
Others pay protection money, they are fake anyway
But not me, I'm not Johnny Fontaine

UntermenschSubhuman

Untermensch literally translates to "subhuman" or "under-man." It's a historically charged and provocative term, famously used in Nazi propaganda.

In the context of Farid Bang's lyrics, he uses it as an extreme insult, calling someone a "Bike-fahrender Untermensch" (bike-riding subhuman). This word is highly impactful due to its controversial history and its use here to deliver a strong, aggressive diss, making it memorable and unique to this type of rap.

In "Johnny Fontaine," German rapper Farid Bang delivers a powerful statement of dominance and independence. The song is a classic example of a "diss track," where he asserts his superiority over the entire German rap scene. He portrays himself as a physically imposing figure, a "Muskelmensch" (muscle man) who only needs a microphone and a protein shake to succeed. He boasts that his raps are so destructive they can end other artists' careers.

The central theme revolves around the line, "ich bin nicht Johnny Fontaine" (I'm not Johnny Fontaine). This is a reference to a character from the movie The Godfather who relies on mafia connections for his career. Farid Bang uses this to declare that he is self-made and doesn't need protection or favors from anyone. He contrasts himself with other rappers who he claims are "fake" and have to pay for protection, while he built his success through his own strength and business sense, even referencing a past of selling drugs to celebrities.
