Stieber Twins

The twins are active since ca. 1983, and produce hip hop music since 1992. Their first instrumental was on the album Alte Schule ("Old school"), the first songs that featured the twins rapping were "HipHop und Rap" ("HipHop and Rap") and "Allein zu zweit" ("Alone Together") and were released in 1995 on the album The Sound of MZEE.
