Negash Ali

The 29-year-old Negash Ali Abdellah is a danish-eritrean rapper who, after an 8 year-span abroad, returns to Denmark with more experience and renewed goals.


Growing up in various refugee camps, Negash knew he was destined to be an artist. His debut album ”Asmarino” was also released to wide critical and commercial success, and also saw Negash performing in L.A., Cairo, Stockholm.


The Aarhus-based rapper has in his recent years in London, Los Angeles and New York experienced varienced success with his experimental works, such as the EP’s ”The African Dream”, “Millennial Man”, ”The Collage”, and the albums “GettoPop” and latest “The Ascension”.


Negash has, since his return to Denmark, reconnected again with DJ Static, who he collaborated with on the debut album “Asmarino”. The renewed collaboration culminates in a new studio album with an expected release in early 2020.


Negash and Dj Static are determined that the starting point should be the same uncompromising and authentic approach to hip hop as the previous releases such as “Asmarino” have illustrated. However, with a renewed energy and a lot more experience.


The project is manifested in an overwhelming and fierce metaphorical and lyrical approach, combined with a hard-hitting, retrospective music production. The upcoming studio album is Negash's rebirth of musical principles and a carefree approach to music that brings an infectious joy to the hip hop heart.
