Formed in the mid 1980’s, Die Fantastischen Vier, also known as Fanta 4, is among the first rap groups to utilize the German language in their work. Since the late 80’s, they have made a conscious effort to move away from the more common American gangster rap.

They are also the German voices of the Penguins in the Madagascar film series:
Michael Beck as Skipper
Thomas D. as Kowalski
Andreas Rieke as Rico
Michael Bernd Schmidt as Private
