Rudi Schwamborn, known as Carlprit, is a German-Zimbabwean rapper, singer, songwriter and actor. He has performed with and written for acts such as Cascada, Alexandra Stan and Laurent Wolf. He is best known for his song Fiesta as well as his appearance in 2009 on Cascada's hit single "Evacuate the Dancefloor" which sold over three million copies worldwide and reached the top 20 on the Billboard charts, making Carlprit the first person of Zimbabwean origin to have a song in the top U.S. Billboard charts.
Calprit first started releasing records in early 2000 after he moved to Germany. In 2003, he appeared on a record by his older brother The Universe of the album Digital Garden. After that he began releasing numerous unofficial mix tape remixes throughout his neighborhood but was unable to receive any real recognition due to the language barrier that he faced in Germany.
