"Fremd im eigenen Land" (German: "Foreign in your own nation") is a song produced by Advanced Chemistry in November 1992.[2]
The single became a staple in the German hip hop scene. It made a strong statement about the status of immigrants throughout Germany, as the group was composed of multi-national and multi-racial members. In the video, one member shows a passport to imply that he is German according to the passport, but still not accepted as German by the rest of the society.[3]
