[edit] Life
Fler was born on 3 April 1982 as Patrick Decker. He grew up without knowing his father, and has stated that he had problems in school, not because of his marks, but because of his behaviour. He has been accused of nationalist views, because of his lyrics in songs like "Neue Deutsche Welle" (New German Wave [allusion to the so called "Neue Deutsche Welle" in the 1980s]) and "Das hier ist schwarz, rot, gold - hart und stolz" (This is black, red, gold - hard and proud), which some claim have racist themes, although Fler has denied being racist and he tried to disprove these accusations with his latest single, Cüs Junge, a song about a beautiful Turkish-German Woman.
[edit] Music
Fler is affiliated with the music label Aggro Berlin with whom he released a number of hit singles. Among them, "Neue Deutsche Welle" which peaked at 9th position on the German Top 100 charts. Another popular single released by Fler was titled "Papa ist Zurück" but managed only to reach 23rd.
