Biography

edit

Altundal was born in Germany.[1] His parents are from the Mardin Province in Turkey. They emigrated to Lebanon and later to Germany. He grew up in Wedding, a borough of Berlin. His friend Fux Ausserkontrolle founded the hip hop group Ausserkontrolle where he was member a long time.[2]

In 2017, Altundal decided to leave. In the same year, he also signed at Ersguterjunge, the music label of the rapper Bushido and his business partner Arafat Abou Chaker. After a dispute between Bushido and Abou Chaker, the label split up and AK Ausserkontrolle and almost all the other signings have left it in 2018.[3] After that, he founded his own label XY Records.[4]

Altundal has previously committed burglaries and robberies in stores.[5][6] Because of his previous convictions, he was requested to leave Germany to Turkey in April 2019,[7] but he refused, and in May 2019 he got a residence permit valid for at least three years.[8]

AK Ausserkontrolle wears a bandana which covers his face to stay anonymous.
