About nina hagen
Catharina "Nina" Hagen (born 11 March 1955) is a German singer, songwriter, and actress, recognized for her theatrical vocal style and her prominence during the punk and Neue Deutsche Welle movements in the late 1970s and early 1980s. She has been referred to as "The Godmother of German Punk." Hagen was born and raised in East Berlin, German Democratic Republic. She began her career as an actress, appearing in several German films alongside her mother, Eva-Maria Hagen. During this period, she joined the band Automobil and released the schlager single "Du hast den Farbfilm vergessen." After her stepfather Wolf Biermann’s East German citizenship was revoked in 1976, Hagen moved with him to Hamburg. She subsequently signed a record deal with CBS Records and formed the Nina Hagen Band. Their self-titled debut album, released in late 1978, received critical acclaim and sold over 250,000 copies. The band released one additional album, "Unbehagen," before disbanding in 1979. In 1982, Hagen signed a new contract with CBS and released her debut solo album "NunSexMonkRock," which became her first record to chart in the United States. She followed this with "Fearless" (1983) and "Nina Hagen in Ekstasy" (1985) before her contract with CBS ended. In 1989, she signed with Mercury Records and released three albums: "Nina Hagen" (1989), "Street" (1991), and "Revolution Ballroom" (1993), though these did not achieve significant commercial success. She returned with the album "Return of the Mother" in 2000. In addition to her music career, Hagen has worked as a voice-over actress and authored three autobiographies: "Ich bin ein Berliner" (1988), "Nina Hagen: That's Why the Lady Is a Punk" (2003), and "Bekenntnisse" (2010). She is also known for her activism in human and animal rights.
