Born Fabio Ferzan Cataldi in 1983, Bass Sultan Hengzt managed to merge a multi-ethnic upbringing and experience (a German born of Turkish descent, and German-Italian rap) together to have a successful career as a Berlin-based rap artist. Getting his career going at Berlin label Bassboxxx, Hengzt released his first album in 2003. His second and third followed in 2005 and 2006 respectively, and in 2007, he released the Top 30 Schmetterlingseffekt ("The Butterfly Effect" in English). He worked on a rather large number of other projects, including collaborations with other rappers on mixtapes, singles, and magazine-only tracks. ~ Chris True
