They all shared the vision of making music that was not only fun, but also educationally valuable. <\/p>\n\n<p>Florian Sump, former drummer of the pop group Echt and known as a solo artist under the name Jim Pansen, now works as an educator in a Hamburg daycare center. In 2010, he went to the studio of Markus Pauli, music producer and live DJ of Fettes Brot, to record a song for the facility. Together with Lukas Nimscheck, who later became the presenter of the Tigerenten-Club, he created the popular song &#8220;Schokolade&#8221; (Chocolate), which was very well received by children and parents.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Originally, they wanted to call themselves &#8220;Rolf Zuckopfnicks&#8221; after the children&#8217;s songwriter Rolf Zuckowski. But after getting his permission, they finally decided on the name &#8220;Deine Freunde&#8221;. Rolf Zuckowski even supported the band by founding the label &#8220;noch mal!!!&#8221;. They made their breakthrough in 2012 with their first album &#8220;Ausm H\u00e4uschen&#8221;. The album was celebrated by parents and children alike and brought a breath of fresh air to the German music scene. The catchy melodies and clever lyrics attracted a wide audience.<\/p>\n\n<p>In 2014, they were awarded the HANS &#8211; The Hamburg Music Prize in the category &#8220;Outstanding Hamburg Artist Development&#8221;. In 2020, Florian Sump and Lukas Nimscheck took part in the 8th season of &#8220;The Voice Kids&#8221; as coaches. On February 26, 2021, they released a new edition of their 1993 hit &#8220;Alles nur geklaut&#8221; together with the a cappella pop group Die Prinzen.  <\/p>\n\n<p>The rousing song &#8220;Meine Freunde&#8221; is the result of a unique collaboration between the popular children&#8217;s band &#8216;Deine Freunde&#8217; and the talented musician <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/musiknerd.org\/kuenstler\/dikka\/\" title=\"Dikka\">Dikka<\/a><\/span><\/strong>.
