Musical content[]

On the album, which mainly contains hip hop and pop songs, Fanta 4 also experiment with the styles of Dubstep ("Heute", "Wie geliebt") and R'n'B ("Lass sehen").[3] A reviewer in Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung said that the band's performance on this album shows "Unbeirrbarkeit, Humor und einem großen Gespür für die Haken" ("imperturbability, humor and a great sense of the hook"), and hails the "Fantastic Four" as pioneers of hip-hop.[2]

For the anniversary song "25" Don Snow a.k.a. Jonn Savannah sang his hit "25 Years" with a slightly different text. "Disco" features Miss Platnum.
