Anja Käckenmeister (born 1978), known professionally as Pyranja, is a German rapper. [1] [2] [3]
Pyranja started rapping at the age of 16. Early supporters and precursors were the rap crews DSC and the Underdog Cru. After a yearlong stay in Boston, Pyranja went back to Berlin, Germany where she entered the music scene and made connections quickly.
In 2001, the label Def Jam Germany released her first EP, called "Im Kreis" which entered the German charts with little to any promotion. Following the production of Pyranja's album, Wurzeln & Flügel Def Jam Germany broke up.
Later, Wurzeln & Flügel was released by another label, Dackel Enterprise. The sales figures of this record also surpassed expectations and steadied her reputation.
In 2004, Pyranja along with her long term friends and studio mates, Joe Rilla, Dra-Q, Jamie White and Sera Finale founded the rap crew Ostblokk. [4] The group released The CD Einmal um Blokk.
In 2004, Pyranja also released her CD Frauen & Technik by her self-created independent label Pyranja Records. This record's complexity marks a growth in her career while still maintaining the sound she's known for. [5] Also on this album, Puranja introduced a new pseudonym Christiane Latte for her tracks Ab 18 and Blondes Gift as a dig at the male-dominated rap-market.
In 2006,Pyranja introduced the new single "Nie wieder" and the album Laut & Leise. Also in 2006, she performed for her home state, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and the Bundesvision Song Contest, winning eighth place.
