It was around 1990 when I joined my first hiphop group and started rapping after falling in love with it in the years previous to that! I'm also from a small town and around the age those guys are playing. Love the atmosphere, the acting and the storyline. It reallly brought me back to those days! If you love hiphop and the 90s.... I will definitely recommend to watch this hidden gem on HBO Max! I'm from the Netherlands by the way.

I tend to cringe with German shows. But this one hits all marks. No unnecessary exposition. No loose ends. No fillers. A well balanced story that is acted by very charismatic actors set well in the 90s. Love the heart of this show. And the story it's told with all the side plots and how every character is growing.

Nik is low key the hidden champ. And Bens and W's story has character and grit. So true and relatable the struggles they're dealing with and to see them grow and manage it all so well. I find it depicted the German culture of yesterday perfectly and it was nice to see that obvious on the nose acting wasn't a thing.

One thing that bothered me. I don't think Germans were that proficient in the English as depicted here. But I could be mistaken.
