Information

The album contains no features and was entirely produced by Bushido himself, except for 2 tracks. It spawned three singles: "Von der Skyline zum Bordstein zurück", "Sonnenbank Flavour" and "Janine".

In an interview, Bushido said that it would be his last album, however he went on to release a new one in 2007. The album received platinum status in Germany for more than 200,000 sold units and gold in Austria for more than 10,000 sold units.

American gothic band Nox Arcana accused Bushido of sampling three songs off them, without permission.[3] The songs appear on their albums Darklore Manor (2003) and Necronomicon (2004).

French band Dark Sanctuary also sued the rapper for sampling eight of their tracks without consent.[4] On 23 March 2010 he was convicted by German courts to a condemnation and was obliged to stop the sales of the concerned albums, singles and samplers, including Von der Skyline zum Bordstein zurück. In addition to that, he was bound to recall and destroy all unsold copies.[5]

gollark: I think the main objection is just lack of informed consent there.
gollark: I emailed god, but no response back yet.
gollark: If the software updates are made on a different continent and you can apply them in less than about 50ms, you don't even need the time travel - just transmit them directly to your computer via a trans-crustal neutrino beam. Neutrinos travel only very slightly slower than light, and can take a more direct path because they don't interact much with matter, while the fibre-optic lines for internet traffic only let light go at 0.6c or something, and use less direct paths, and have routing overhead.
gollark: You did not specify that they were stolen from evil people, and possibly yes.
gollark: I'm not an EVILDOER!!!!!
