Koljah from the hip-hop group Antilopen Gang has released the new single “The stuff from which legends are” together with Bobby Fletcher – and that should also please fans of Fraktus, because in the accompanying video Rocko Schamoni is featured as 80s star Rocky Schikano to see.
Koljah and Bobby Fletcher’s first album together is slated for a September 23 release, entitled Maybe It’s Better That Way. Already in July they released the first single “Everything should be dark”. “The Stuff of Legends” describes the life of an aging rock star, with a zebra enclosure, eternal comeback plans and addiction to pills. “I could have been like that if I had become a slave to success!” says Rocko Schamoni about his role as a forgotten rock icon.

Rocky Schikano is not the Hamburg musician’s first alter ego, fans should be reminded of Fraktus. Schamoni has been making music under this name with Heinz Strunk and Jacques Palminger since 2007. The trio is also known as the Studio Braun artist group. However, the mockumentary “Fraktus” by Lars Jessen from 2012 made it clear: Fraktus has actually existed since the eighties and helped to invent techno.
Bobby Fletcher is also relatively unknown within the hip-hop scene, but has been friends with Koljah since childhood. Even then they rapped together, but after that Fletcher mainly worked as a screenwriter and ghostwriter for comedians. Fletcher was also heard in 2021 in a song on the compilation “Antelope Money Laundering Sampler 1”.
