Hihihahaholky at Prostor

Hihihahaholky is an experimental rap trio formed by performers Alena Novotná and Štěpánka Todorová alongside music producer and live DJ Matěj Šíma (aka Taťka Maťka). Their work blends ironic naïve humor with reflections on contemporary social and personal themes. The group raps in Czech with playful lyrics, experimenting with language and embracing a bittersweet sensibility. They are known for their performative and distinctive style, often appearing in one of their "pinky winky girly" alter egos. Taťka Maťka's production ranges from jazz-influenced to hard trap beats.

The trio met while studying acting at DAMU's Department of Alternative and Puppet Theatre, where the band formed in 2022. Their debut album Pinky Winky Life (December 2023) explores the world of girls and everyday challenges with wit. The music video for the track "Špatnej vliv" became a hit. In February 2025, they released their second album Dobrodružství Jessicy a Angie, a concept album following two main characters and diving deeper into feminist themes while maintaining humor and everyday struggles.

Hihihahaholky composed music and lyrics for the theatre production Fakani at A Studio Rubín (directed by Ondřej Štefaňák, artistic director of theatre X10), which premiered in February 2025. The trio also created music for the short student film Moje domovina (directed by Sarah Slavíčková), in which both band members played lead roles. The film's single "Moje doma" was released in November 2024 in collaboration with rap duo P/\ST, with the music video following in February 2025.
