Then he became a professionnal American football player : he played at Atlanta, at the Clemson Tigers, then came to Munich in the Thunders team. He became the first rapper of E-Rotic. "I left E-rotic on my own, nobody kicked me out. I didn't like the business of the producer David Brandes. He took money from live shows and had no respect for the live group E-rotic. It was stupid to say 15 years later the true came out. I was playing football when Max was out on record. I came in the group as a live show artist first. I am a rapper. The producer wanted to do everything for himself, so he could keep all the money and continue to make silly songs. He was not growing, so I left".
