times up - Bushido in the Cineplex Münster 
security guards at the entrance, crowd barriers and high alert - something one in Münster's Cineplex is not the norm. But unusual guests sometimes require unusual measures, and so is the visit of Bush on Tuesday evening, everything is a bit different. Exaggerated or not, Bush's will left. ("! Four cities a day, age) Since Sunday, he travels with his team to help promote his new film, and in each city to expect the same picture: screaming girls and semi-strong guys who are autograph or a handshake . wrangle The around zipper, but the stress can not say Bush: "An old man is not a D-train," he groans laconically, when he was 20 minutes late for a press event appears. An apology is not - he's the star and determine where it's at. Even his fans he can discipline if necessary: "40 seconds, then rest"
But to see him before the get, at first you select "Times change you," the film portrait of the Berlin rapper in which Bush himself plays. His success is unmatched, gold records, platinum albums and a best-selling novel pave his way. Now also a film - can go well? The critics say: no. Bush, however, thinks otherwise: "What say I do not care. If I was sure I would have stopped in 2001, to make music. "For the music and the movies it's like with food:" The main thing we like you! The food my mother is no worse than a gourmet meal "Good -. On no accounting for taste. But what is actually the message of the film? Bushido is the poetic: "It is a modern fairy tale. "Experienced, but a" There's a little boy losgeritten on a white horse, and has defeated the evil dragon! "
that the little boy not only" Group, cocaine and fights the Thunderbolt Kid "had contradicted Although the image that Bush has been drawn to his music and his book by himself, but good - the man is just diverse, and he knows like no other, to market its bad image. That this image in the wake of the media exploitation of Berlin between Kernersville and Maischberger long to pose decay is - given. Every society needs its enfant terrible finally, and Bush is the black sheep in a German circus show. So it is appropriate that Alice Schwarzer him recently called "petit bourgeois in disguise." But Bush does that off with a dismissive smile - he is intellectually superior to black anyway (that is what I seriously "). Who sees his film, but, he promises to remember at the end: he is "not so different from everyone else." So still a philistine? Bushido the Normalo?
Not really, because for many kids look up to him - in the subsequent autograph session it is clear how much the fans identify with him. As with a hopeful look asks, "Do you speak Arabic? I am Arab! "Yes, Bush is one of them, and he has done it. The old legend from rags to riches - Bushido it represents, and so he is not only a pop star, scandal pasta and splitters, but somehow also a role model.
There was a time when boy bands ruled the pop world. Good looking guys with a charming smile, the catchy songs of love and passion for singing and the mostly female fans in rows brought to the mind. As the girl fell in a faint before the concert, teddy bears were thrown on the stage and the deafening screams drowned out even the most powerful speakers. 
This was back in the nineties, but Culcha Candela let these times back to life. They are the 2000s equivalent of all the forgotten boy bands Take That and the Backstreet Boys. When the band have sold-out concert on Saturday at Skaters Palace least the girls scream, as if there were no tomorrow, and even before the cute boys at all come on stage! 
Since her hit "Hamma" ride Berlin is a wave of success, and a first end in sight. The tour to the new album is mostly sold out, the reputation as an outstanding live band rushes ahead of the seven Smarties. Whether the hype is justified is, sometimes an open question, but they know their business. They know which buttons they need to put the fans into ecstasy. Little girls in primary school children tear their hands in the air, standing beside their mothers swinging hips and sing with enthusiasm. Culcha Candela work across generations. 
fact that the lyrics here are limited for minors and, moreover, sometimes dangerously close range in the weak sense limit, seems to no one to bother her. Mostly it comes to parties, drinks, cool guys and hot women. The plate-empowerment anthem "Stand Up" with acoustic guitar and bongos, or the half-baked, tabloid-social criticism of "Brave New World" fall as of little consequence. 
Culcha Candela are just a good mood, and never was dependent on level. But make mood that they can - the band pulls out all the entertainment tab, the show is choreographed to the smallest detail. Every movement, sits on the pan from the synchronous towel Gruppenpose for the cameras through to the carefully choreographed percussion inserts. 
The fans are the face of so much concentrated energy and away screaming and calling "Take it off! Take it off! ". Intentionally or not, Culcha Candela, the legitimate successor of the Backstreet Boys - sexy hit guarantor with much effect and little substance.
