German-born HipHop artist Sultan Tunç, who shuttles between Turkey and Germany, is known as one of the most innovative Turkish musicians and HipHop-producers in Turkey. His debut album "Saygı Değer Şarkılar", released in 2003, was praised by daily newspaper Hürriyet as the best HipHop-album that has ever been produced in Turkey.

As a Turk born and raised in Germany, Sultan Tunç has experienced the problems that come along with being rooted in two different cultures, but he knows how to tell these stories with a sage sense of humor as well as with fury, outrage and despair, and sometimes with a pointing finger. Musically, he is also successful in reflecting this cultural diversity: oriental scales layered over electronic beats, topped with a mixture of Funk and Jazz, Reggae and Ragga – that´s what makes an original, acoustic combination!

Tunç drew his lyrical inspiration from American HipHop group Public Enemy as well as from the philosophical doctrines of Sufism which sharply sets him apart from stereotypes of Gangster Rap. For him, HipHop music is not just a form of musical expression, but it´s also a mouthpiece for political statements. His music video " Pardon afedersiniz Mr Genelkurmay " ( " Excuse me Mr. General " ) of the 2008 album " Orientale Rap n Roll " was not broadcast on Turkish television but – with help from the band Bandista – over time became a national anti-militarist-anthem.

Sultan Tunç has worked with greats like Selda Bagcan („the Turkish Joan Baez". The Guardian), Özay Fecht ( “40 Square Meters of Germany” ), Eastenders, Bandista, Selim Sesler and many others. Within the last ten years he has released three solo albums, has been featured as a guest artist in many other songs, received awards for several of his music videos, more than 30 of his songs have been licensed for international compilations, and many of his songs have been used for movies, TV documentaries, theater plays and musicals. Tunç has toured extensively with his band around Europe, having played at almost all famous venues and music festivals. Within the next few days Tunç will release his third album entitled " OTOBIOGRAFITTI ".
