In letzter Zeit war ich recht wenig in Sachen Hip-Hop-Fotos unterwegs. Die Backspin kam nicht mehr raus und auch Marteria und Casper ließen mit ihren Releases auf sich warten. So blieb mir im letzten Jahr nur, Nachwuchs-Hip-Hopper wie F.R. abzulichten.
Aber zack boom bang - letztes Wochenende stand dann doch eine Hip-Hop-Reise an. Aber alles der Reihe nach: Ein alter Bekannter aus Nicht-Hip-Hop-Kreisen ist inzwischen Marketing-Leiter der Ludwigsburg-Arena. Und im Zuge einer neuen Webseite sollten Fotos her, Totalen der Arena, Logen, Bestuhlung, Werbemöglichkeiten und so weiter. Bei solchen Anfragen bin ich eigentlich immer recht ehrlich und antworte, dass ich dafür nicht ganz der Richtige bin beziehungsweise andere das viel besser und günstiger machen können.
Er bestand aber auf Bilder von mir. Also bekam er einen Freundschafts-Pauschal-Preis angeboten, unter anderem weil man sich dann endlich mal wieder sehen würde. Zudem mag ich die süddeutsche Küche wirklich sehr. Aber wie das bei Schwaben so ist, war auch der Freundschaftsdeal zu teuer, und die Sache hatte sich erledigt.
Bis er zwei Monate später wieder anrief und fragte, ob es für mich nicht interessant wäre, Bushido zu fotografieren.
Tatsächlich bin ich nicht der größte Fan von Bushidos Music. However, he is already a very interesting guy I would have loved in my portfolio. That had not been revealed, has gefuchst me always. Say: The Swabian-saving proposal met quite nutritious soil. However, I have
even eight years, including hip-hop photography behind me, strange actions windy organizer. I replied: "If the works and I have a separate room and 30 minutes of shooting, I get take pictures with your box and the arena. However, I want the first writing and second, if something goes wrong, I pack my things now, do not make a single photograph of the arena and put all external costs. "
long story short: There was a photo opportunity. I had everything in writing. Our hip-hop trip to the Swabian province could begin.
was short term, one day before departure or a shoot with Jan Delay for the resurrected back to spin, we wanted to perform in the studios of boogie-parks. Among the studios, there is a nice big garage where we built up our mobile studio. Just before you're ready to be a Jaguar E-Type came rushing up, and HP Baxxter got out. What we would do in his garage and what is going on here at all, he asked a little nervous. His voice was about as loud as the engine of his classic car. January caused the situation but rather charming, so I now have a picture of the two in my portfolio. Coincidences's. But that was only the first step of our hip hop class trip. Immediately after the shooting we went to the highway, 750 km to Ludwigsburg waiting for us. Once in the arena, at the door were hanging out quite a few 14-year-old Bush fans. We built the first time on background role and the other nonsense, while Bush and his homies did sound check.
Then of course, what was to come. Exactly 23 minutes before shooting Bush said from same is because of health problems.
Super. I thought that this topic brings me only on my old stories Blog again. But far from it. To be honest I have with me the whole thing but do yourself a particular allegation. So a blue-eyed approach I had actually given up. Because the shooting was indeed no more sense to brush out my portfolio. And why should an artist of any size have Bushido's interest in ensuring that an organizer of one of his concerts knows any photographer, from which he is then please take a picture? On the other hand, I had always heard my gut feeling, I should have so many photo does not in my portfolio. Sometimes one just has good luck. But one has to be able to lose. 
The Swabian marketing director was all clearly embarrassed, but now he realized that he was a few leagues deep plays than he had thought - I like it too. But I was again nice and made him his photos of bistro tables, chairs, boxes and Hall. These photographic masterpieces I want you here, of course, not denied. In the short term was to have, that we may take pictures Bushido and Fler. As a consolation prize, so to speak. However, even that did not work. But things got even better, I could still make a documentary photo, with the transfer of the Sold-Out Awards. According to press-moderate. At the height of humiliation siezte Bushido me too. Yes. Exactly.
We looked at the first songs of the concert, all packed into the bus and made our way to Heidelberg. Maybe yes, at least had the pleasure Stieber, photographed by Paul Ripke to be. Did not.
