Adikia, the rapper also known for the celebrated D.R.E.A.M.G.I.R.L.S rap collective, does not dodge difficult subjects, nor is she afraid of being stigmatised. Adikia’s repertoire covers topics such as feminism, sexual harassment and smashing the patriarchy, but she refuses to be labelled as someone who only marches for one cause.
Whatever the subject, Adikia will deliver her message – loud and clear – while her dynamic and raucous live show has made headlines over the years. For this reason alone, Adikia should be experienced in the sweltering atmosphere of a club, rather than in the comfort your arm chair.
Her unrivalled, seamless flow and outspoken approach have made Adikia one of the most compelling female rappers to hail from Finland in recent years. This fireball of a rap artist personifies the spirit of a new era in Finnish music – it’s time to break the silence!
