laut.fm – Massiv Radio

Massiv Radio is a web radio station from the laut.fm network that plays German-language hip hop. The focus is on gangsta rap and hardcore hip hop, with German hip hop as the main genre. The programme features artists such as Massiv, Haftbefehl, Bushido, Majoe and Farid Bang, but also Fler, Kurdo or Summer Cem.

The website describes the station as raw, dark street sound. This refers above all to the style of the scene that the station serves: hard beats, direct lyrics and a selection that is strongly oriented towards the Berlin and West German rap tradition of the 2000s and 2010s. Alongside well-known hits, older tracks and scene names can also be heard.

Massiv Radio can be heard as a stream in the browser, via the laut.fm apps for Android and iOS, via Alexa, and through portals such as radio.de and phonostar. Presented shows such as »Rotation« are part of the programme, although the presentation there tends to feel incidental and the music takes centre stage.
