After a four year creative break, Afrob appeared in the German rapper Sido's 2013 song, 30-11-80.
Robert Zemichiel (born 1 August 1977), known professionally as Afrob, is a German rapper and actor.
He was born in Venice, Italy but grew up in Stuttgart, Germany.
He began rapping in 1994, and has released nine albums since: Rolle mit Hip Hop (1999), Made in Germany (2001), Wer hätte das gedacht? (2003), Hammer (2005), Der Letzte seiner Art (2009), Push (2014), Blockbasta (2015), Mutterschiff (2016), and most recently Abschied von Gestern (2019).
In 1994, Afrob began his rap career as a featured artist for befriended rap crews such as the Massiven Töne, Freundeskreis (FK), and the Spezializtz.
Afrob's also gained early fame from his collaboration with Stuttgart Posses such as "Die Kolchose" and "FK Allstars" (et al. with Max Herre, Joy Denalane, Gentleman, and Sékou).
It was not until 1999 that he released his first solo album, Rolle mit Hip Hop.
Rolle mit Hip Hop was distributed by Four Music and featured collaborations with the Kolchose, and the album peaked at spot 13 on the German album charts.
The same year, Afrob released the single "Reimemonster" ("rhyme monsters") which featured Hamburg City rapper Ferris MC.
For this single, Afrob worked together primarily with musicians from Stuttgart (e.g. Wasi, DJ Friction, and Max Herre).
Today, "Reimemonster" is still widely regarded as a German hip hop classic.
In May 1999, Afrob arranged a tour with Freundeskreis, and in the fall of 1999, he toured with the Fantastischen Vier throughout Germany.
His second album, Made in Germany, was released in 2001 by Four Music.
The album was less successful, despite featuring acts like Gentleman, Wasi from Massive Töne, Max Herre, and Joy Denalane, and it peaked at spot 79 on the German album charts.
This album was more pensive than the first, however, and was interesting due to its social criticism, epitomized by the release of the anti-racist single "Öffne die Augen" ("Open Your Eyes") with Frankfurt's D-Flame.
Afrob's engagement with German racism continued with his participation in the Brothers Keepers project, collaborating with an all-star cast of Afro-German musicians in the single "Adriano".
The Brothers Keepers project also marked the first collaboration with Samy Deluxe.
They met again when they worked on the single "Four Fists".
They subsequently formed a group called ASD (Afrob und Samy Deluxe) and recorded an entire album together.
The product of this cooperation was called Wer hätte das gedacht? ("Who Would Have Thought?"), which hit the stores in 2003.
Today, Wer hätte das gedacht? remains Afrob's most successful album, having reached fifth place in the German charts.
After the success of ASD, Afrob released his third solo album in 2005.
The album, named Hammer, was produced by the American producers Needlz, Waajeed, and B.R. Gunna and released on 28 February 2005 by Four Music.
The Album was not as successful as Wer hätte das gedacht?, and it peaked at number 38 of the German charts.
In 2006, Afrob collaborated in the solo album of the German rapper Lisi, Eine wie keine ("One of a Kind").
