Hard-hitting Greenlandic rap with TARRAK in VEGA
TARRAK , one of Greenland's most important rappers, stands as a central voice in a young generation of Greenlanders fighting to define a modern and independent Greenlandic identity.
He had his breakthrough with his 2016 debut album FxGxS, where the song "Tupilak" in particular became a huge viral hit. In 2019, he released the album Josef Tarrak, a deeply personal and autobiographical project that later became a theater play of the same name. Most recently, he released the single "Uummatima", featuring the danish rap group Suspekt, in April 2023.
For TARRAK, the political is connected to the personal, and there is definitely something at stake in TARRAK's lyrical universe, which delivers harsh criticism of colonialist thinking, but also a call to Greenlanders to stand by their own identity and culture.
TARRAK was awarded the Talent Prize at the Koda Awards 2017, the Prize of the Year at the Koda Awards 2021 and the Government of Greenland's Naalakkersuisut's Encouragement Prize in 2017. In addition to this, he is also featured in the acclaimed documentary Kampen om Grønland (2020).
