ABN (which is an abbreviation for ‘Algemeen Beschaafd Nederlands’ (general civilized Dutch in English)) is a Flemish hiphop group. Besides other Flemish hiphop groups like ’t Hof van Commerce and K.I.A. (Krapoel in Axe), ABN is the only one that doesn’t rap in a specific dialect.

ABN was founded in the mid nineties by rapper Quinte Ridz and Pita, artist name of Saïd Aghassaiy, the man who produced the beats and music. Some of their popular tracks are Barbietrut (Barbiesnollen), Algemeen Beskaafd Nederlanz and Breekpunt. They also co-operate with other artists. On the track Ex-liefdadigheid you can hear Luc De Vos sing, the frontman of the Belgian band Gorki. Marcel Vanthilt also sings the refrain in Kanonnevlees.

ABN’s debute album Abnormaal was well received by the press and their single Algemeen Beskaafd Nederlanz (a co-operation between the Dutch nederhop-formation Osdorp Posse) immediately entered in ‘De Afrekening’ (Listener’s hitparade) on Studio Brussel (a Flemish radio station). The group also performed on the first day on the festival Torhout-Werchter (later renamed to Rock Werchter) in july 1998 on the famous Main Stage. In 1999, Pita left the group. Before that, members MHD and Khattabi already left the group, but after that, Quinte became twice as active as before. He released the third ABN-single Vet En Fonky.
