Erik Jacobsen, Artist (Erik)

Hi Erik, what do you do as an artist? I’m a rapper, who’s currently working on an EP. It’s produced by Hanssolo, who’s worked with Joey Bada$$ in the past.

What are you looking for here at Reeperbahn? I’m here because I know Hamburg well and I would like to meet the guys from Viva con Agua, who sell water and do music shows.

Max Rüdel, Kanoon

What do you do at Kanoon? We started as an alternative rock label, where we signed bands like The Broken Beats, but we’ve turned into a music community platform, where we reward users for interacting, i.e. sharing, commenting. We call it usergenerated publicity.
