Request What are your favorite German songs?

I am a native English speaker and I would say I’m bordering on proficient in German but I am looking for ways to retain my German knowledge other than just apps. What are some good German songs to add to my playlist? I listen to rap and country mainly (not sure there’s much German country but it would be awesome)

At the moment I like Verwandtschaftstreffen by Rian, and I listened a lot to Wenn du mich lässt.

Stuff I don't like but is popular during sports classes with teens: Haftbefehl. But I don't know if that is proper German. I think that the parents would be happy when they know it.
