Hihihahaholky + support: Anki + Pokoj 25 + Edúv syn

HIHIHAHAHOLKY
is an experimental rap trio featuring frontwoman and performer Alena Novotná and Štěpánka Todorová, alongside music producer and live DJ Matěj Šíma, known as Taťka Maťko. Their work is characterized by ironically naive humor through which they reflect on social and personal themes. They rap in Czech with playful lyrics and experiment with language. The group's signature is their distinctive performative style - they often perform as one of their "pinky winky girly" alter egos. Taťka Maťko creates music with original harmonic beats ranging from jazz to hard trap.

The group formed in 2022 at DAMU, where all members study acting in the Department of Alternative and Puppet Theatre. Their debut album Pinky Winky Life was released in December 2023 and explores the girl's world and everyday life issues with irony - a music video for the hit "Špatnej vliv" was created in autumn 2023. In February 2025, they released their second album "Adventures of Jessica and Angie", a conceptual record about two main characters that focuses on feminist themes as well as everyday struggles and humorous situations.

Hihihahaholky wrote music and lyrics for the production "Fakani" at A Studio Rubín directed by Ondřej Štefaňák (premiere February 2025) and created music for the student film "My Homeland" directed by Sarah Slavíčková, in which both frontwomen played the lead roles. The single for the film "My Home" was released in November 2024 in collaboration with rap duo P/ST, with the music video following in February 2025.

Anki is a Prague-based rapper with Vietnamese roots who sensitively and rawly captures themes of identity, periphery, and personal transformation in his lyrics. His work is a statement about finding a place between cultures and social classes - motifs of poverty, periphery, and changing life circumstances meet here with the need to express oneself without pretense. For his album I WANT TO FEEL SAVE (2024), he received the Album of the Year award at the Vinyla and Apollo music awards and was nominated for the Anděl Prize.

POKOJ 25 is melancholic indie-rap with elements of club synthpop - diary-like snippets celebrating everyday life, the night city, and nostalgia.
