The very first LP of the Berliner has been discovered on Reddit – and is traded for horrendous sums.
Maxim Drüner, Nico Seyfried and Tarek Ebéné, better known as KIZ, are among the most important instances of German hip -hop. With albums such as cockfighting and vacation for the brain, they shaped a complete genre in Germany. Now your previously missing demotape kingize is said to have reappeared – and it’s about money …

Reddit user discovers kiz rarity kingsize
In the “Germanrap” subreddit, an attentive member came across a special find: a user discovered the first plate of the trio on the Discogs sales platform. It is said to be a signed CD that is offered for 99,999.06 euros. The product description of the article suggests that the copy does not require any reading errors and that only a few scratches appear on the reading page. In addition, KIZ’s autographs are supposed to denounce the cover of Kingsize.
KIZ-Tape Kingsize dates from early 2000s
The creation of kingsize has died over two decades. The record was already produced in 2002, but it never officially appeared. The first regular publication of KIZ only followed in 2005 with the Rapid Germany chainsaw massacre, which was published as a street album as part of the Royal Bunker Street Offensive.
Fake or real kiz collector’s piece?
It remains unclear whether the KIZ KIZ KIZ Kings King CD is actually an original or just a fake. In the meantime, the discogs listing is no longer available. It is therefore possible that either a buyer actually paid the high price – or the offer was withdrawn.
A short recording of the tape on YouTube was already circulating in 2016. The other style of the rappers at the time is to listen to – because at the time of Royal Bunker, her sound was still based on role models like Kool Savas. Her texts were also from another caliber at that time. They were already well thought out, but far less morbid than in later phases of their career.
