Lange Nacht der Demokratie-„Der Himmel so laut“ – Lesung und Rap mit Andrej Murasov

Andrej Murasov brings a somewhat different kind of reading to the stage—a performance lecture. Born in 1983, he grew up in Bielefeld with a Slovenian-Russian and German family background. He studied general literature, English, and Slavic studies. In addition to his work as a freelance writer, a Ph.D.-holding hip-hop scholar, and a lecturer, he has been active for years as a rapper and beat producer under the name “Partizan.” After spending time abroad in Ljubljana, Sarajevo, and Budapest, he now lives in Munich and Berlin. In his books *Alles Gold* and *Der Himmel ist so laut*, Andrej Murašov combines literature—specifically coming-of-age stories—with rap, using language that is precise, direct, and personal. His lyrics revolve around identity, city life, and social tensions, carried by a sound all his own. The reading combines text and music and demonstrates just how well rap and literature can complement each other.
