From gift to debate: PA Sports’ Brabus-G-Class divides the community. Luxury cars, rappers, hip hop – the hottest models at a glance.
It’s nothing new that hip hop is all about status symbols. In addition to luxury watches and villas, there are also cars. Chic, often ostentatious cars have now become a firm tradition there. Since the emergence of the subculture, rappers have demonstrated their success and status with luxury sedans, high-quality SUVs and sports cars. Ever since German rapper PA Sports gave his wife Luna a G-Class converted by Brabus and inadvertently sparked an argument on Instagram, it has been clear: Cars mean more than just status in the scene – they are an expression of identity.
Editorial recommendations
“Started from the bottom, now we’re here” manifests itself in car paint, rims and horsepower. We asked ourselves which four-wheeled valuables Germany’s rappers have in their garages. Click here to check.
1. Reezy
Reezy has a collaboration with Porsche – and also owns several models. Most recently he organized an event with the car brand at the IAA trade fair in Munich. Reezy showed up there with, among other things, a 911 Turbo Cabriolet and a 911 Carrera GTS Cabriolet. However, he is most often spotted in his Maybach – much to the delight of his fans. In September last year, he was seen driving through Frankfurt in his Mercedes-Maybach.
2. Luciano
Luciano treats himself to several vehicles. He is particularly fond of luxury SUVs such as a matt black Cadillac Escalade, a Rolls-Royce Cullinan and a Bentley Bentayga as well as a custom-made ABT RSQ8 1 of 1 with 800 hp. His fleet also includes a Porsche 911 GT3 (around 200,000 euros) and a Mercedes S-Class.
3. Shirin David
As one of the most famous women in German rap, Shirin David likes it extravagant. Among other things, she drives a specially made Brabus 600 in peach pink based on a Range Rover, a Mercedes G-Class and a Rolls-Royce Wraith.
4. Gzuz
Hardly any vehicle is as iconic as Gzuz’ CL500. The rapper bought his first car ever, the pink Mercedes. The car is his pride and joy – in 2015 Gzuz even dedicated his first single “CL500” to it. Although he now owns other luxury cars, including a Porsche and a G-Class, the pink Mercedes remains his favorite car.
5. Samra
He has a real fondness for vintage cars. While many other rappers rely on the latest models, Samra raves about classics from earlier decades – especially his 250 SL Pagode, a Mercedes model that rolled off the assembly line around 60 years ago. It was produced between 1966 and 1967 and is now considered an absolute classic. He still enjoys driving his Lamborghini Urus.
6. PA Sports
His latest possession should no longer have escaped anyone’s attention: PA Sports acquired YouTuber JP Performance’s Mercedes Brabus G-Class as a surprise for his wife Luna. However, the self-made multimillionaire owns other vehicles, including a Lamborghini Huracán in the EVO Spyder edition and a 2023 BMW 7 Series M.
7. Loredana
At Loredana, luxury comes first. The 29-year-old not only owns a villa in Switzerland and another in Kosovo, but also a Cadillac for each of their properties. She has also been driving a Ferrari F8 Spider since 2023.
8. Contra K
For Kontra K, success is not luck – nor is it the display of expensive cars. Until the beginning of 2025, he was only occasionally seen in front of sports cars such as a Dodge Challenger or a Ferrari 458. However, in February 2025, the rapper joined the Abt family and bought one of Audi’s limited high-performance sports cars, the ABT RS6 Legacy.
Honorable Mention: Cro
When it comes to horsepower-driven status symbols, Cro plays the role of the relaxed opposite pole. His Instagram profile is free of typical luxury cars – instead, Cro spends time in Bali, drives a scooter instead of a Porsche and (of course) lives in his own luxury villa.
