The huge crowd was waiting anxiously to catch a glimpse their idol, Rapsoul – a popular German band. The hour-long "Meet & Greet Rapsoul" event, organized by MP3.de took place exclusively at the Transcend booth at IFA. When Rapsoul arrived, they happily signed autographs and posed for pictures, much to the delight of excited fans. The purpose of the event was to bring music and hardware together, as excellent music needs excellent hardware in order to sound good. MP3.de specifically chose Transcend as its partner for the event because of the superior quality of its T.sonic MP3 players. This successful collaboration shows once again Transcend's devotion to its customers, which has helped secure its place as a trusted leader in the consumer electronics industry.
After performing as the opening band for the legendary Backstreet Boys in late 2005, Rapsoul released its first album "Unbeschreiblich," which was an instant hit. Rapsoul is now one of the most popular hip-hop bands in Germany.
