Rare words from rapper Bushido: In a new song he deals with his marital problems with unusual openness. Both the video and the text of the work are clear: the relationship with his wife Anna-Maria Ferchichi is more at risk than it initially seemed.

The very personal tones in his song “You don’t love me,” released on Friday, sound like this: “Please let’s talk and stop fighting. Tell me, are you really thinking about ending this whole thing?” Bushido pleads: “I’m here, take all the time you need. Give us a chance and don’t give up on me.”
“I think it’s sooooo crazy”
Bushido has rearranged Sabrina Setlur’s original from 1997 to deal with his marital problems. The 47-year-old’s text also left its mark on his wife. “I think it’s sooooo crazy that Anis was allowed to cover this song,” she wrote on Instagram over the weekend. “He rewrote it for us. While he was in Bangkok for a month in the summer and we were still in Dubai. Now I can listen to it well, but back then I couldn’t.”
It was only at the beginning of December that the celebrity couple, who have seven children together, commented on separation rumors in their podcast “In Bed with Anna-Maria and Anis Ferchichi”. Bushido, whose real name is Anis Mohamed Ferchichi, admitted that he left their shared house in Dubai at the beginning of September and moved into an apartment. Nevertheless, he and Anna-Maria are still a couple.
His 44-year-old wife wrote on Instagram: “Our marriage has fallen into a difficult phase and we both felt the need to take some distance in order to see more clearly again.” He often comes for breakfast and looks after the children, and from January the whole family wants to accompany Bushido on his tour through Germany.
“But I didn’t hear”
The lines of the song continue: “You built me up and I destroyed you. “You called for help, but I didn’t hear,” he sings, asking for a chance to make amends.
What the rapper feels about her problems could be revealed in this passage: “And now I’m standing in an empty house and you’re singing: You don’t love me, you just don’t love me.” This sentence makes him sick, it is said elsewhere. And finally: “I made this song for you so that everyone can hear it. Where so many fail, we succeeded.”
Is there a happy ending for the rapper and his wife in real life? Anna-Maria Ferchichi recently said in her podcast: “I still think we’re on the right track. And I hope that after 2014 it will be our next real crisis that our marriage will now hopefully survive. I’m confident because we love each other and thank God we’re looking in the same direction.” The two are currently undergoing couples therapy. A therapist from Germany regularly supports the two of them via online conversations.
