"Berlin was geht ab (?)" is a german sentence / question. It is used in case
you fucked up while performing a
performance (e.g. rapping or singing) or in case you said or did sth. embarassing. The goal is to distract the audience from your fail.
The origin of this sentence is from a well known german rapper called "Eno" who failed rapping his own part of a track on a live event in Berlin (July 2019). He forgot his lyrics and randomly started to speak unclear words. After that he directly asked the audience if they are all good and he wants to hear them sing.
Today it is also used in the youth age group as a funny question. Sometimes you also leave the word Berlin out or replace it with
something else.
Example 1 (original):
Eno (a german autotune rapper): *randomly starts to speak chinese on a live concert
"Majfkebdkxkebalfekbfkbrille"
Eno: " Berlin was geht ab ? Seid ihr gut drauf oder was? Ich will euch alle hören, alle zusammen!"
Example 2:
*WhatsApp
group chat*
Random dude: "Ey Gruppe was geht ab? Seid ihr gut drauf oder was?
