BACKSPIN has been a permanent institution for hip-hop in Germany since 1994. We have not only accompanied the development of the culture, but actively helped to shape it. In this panel, we look back on three decades in which BACKSPIN has played a key role in defining hip-hop in Germany. We explore the beginnings of the scene, the importance of the city of Hamburg and the development that German rap has undergone to date. How has the scene changed, what has become of the pioneers, how is German rap today compared to back then and how has BACKSPIN changed as a medium during this time? Join us on a journey through 30 years of BACKSPIN and the history of German rap, from the first beats to the current culture.
