For us, the Prince Pis Pis Songs about growing up when growing up in the ear, they heard when we chilled after school with a beer in one, and one joint in the other on the park bench, there is still every announcement of a new album with the diffuse hope that it was once again. It is a feeling that unfortunately rarely occurs, not even with West Berlin.
But that has his moments: The opener “Teufelsberg” is a coherent capital portrait including social debates and social contrasts. Of the many torn threads that would have been worth pursuing, Pi hardly takes up on the following songs, even if “West Berlin”, “030” and “Bergmannkiez” share the ambition to be a metropolitan soundtrack.
Other songs (“Little Eden”, “Berlin Beauty Cocktail”, “Famous last words”) are about worries and needs of a family man’s nial that feels trapped in everyday life, but does not know exactly why. This is touching, but some more reflection loops would have been good. Pi raps on “Without you”: “Each song a satellite, of which 99 explode until one flies at some point.” We can calm down: the quota is not that bad. But she could get better again.
