Shazam Around The World: International High Flyers
January 7th, 2010
The throne of Popular Music was conquered by two very different females in 2009: It was Lady Gaga vs. Susan Boyle. Luckily, around the world a few local artists have challenged their chart supremacy. Beginning in Germany with Peter Fox, a hip-hop musician member of the dancehall band Seed, whose solo career has provided two of the biggest selling records in Teutonic lands. His late 2008 debut ‘Stadtaffe’ ranked high in the end of the year Eurochart, having sold over 700,000 copies. It was rapidly followed up with a live album with Coldsteel as backing band.
