Биография

Austrian hip-hop group Texta were formed in Linz in Upper Austria in 1993. The group consisted of five members: MCs Flip, Huckey (1993-2018, RIP), Laima, Skero (1993-2013) and DJ Dan. All the rappers contribute to the (German-language) lyrics, with Flip usually providing the beats. Naturally, the group's music is influenced by American hip-hop acts, but Texta have garnered a considerable fan base given their Upper Austrian dialect raps, their D.I.Y. attitude, and their cultural sensibilities that don't attempt to cloak the fact that they are Austrian, but rather emphasize it. They released their first vinyl EP, Geschmeidig, in 1995, followed by a 12" single in 1996: "Sei Lieb zu Mir/Da Raw Shit," both released on Ducksquad Records. The group played numerous live shows afterwards and landed tracks on several compilations. Texta's debut album, "gediegen", was released in December 1997, followed by an extensive tour through Germany together with Blumentopf and Total Chaos. Since then they have released 7 studio albums in total, 2 collaborators albums with BLUMENTOPF as Kaleidoskop and TNT, 2 collaborators albums as TTR ALLSTARS, 1 collaborators album as DIE UNSICHTBAREN, plus different solo albums. They also made music for two theater plays "MAX N MORIZZ" and "Astoria" for the Linzer Landestheater. They played more than 900 shows around the world and are the most important rap group in Austrian music history. 2021 a new album will be released called "Mehr Oder Weniger"
