Yungmiqu

Yungmiqu, aka Mihkku Laiti, is a 22 year old Sámi rap artist from Utsjoki, whose
genre-defying music has been playing all over the Nordic countries since
2019. He combines the sounds of fierce northern rap music with elements of
electronic music in his music.

Despite his young age, Yungmiqu has already collaborated with Finland's
toughest Sámi artists, such as Ailu Valle, Amoc and Niillas Holmberg.

Laiti has come to the attention of the general public through numerous TV
appearances and has starred in his own documentary. Yungmiqu has been
doing shows not only in Finland but also in Norway, Sweden, Estonia and
France.

Yungmiqu will release his second album Chapter on May 23. It is a personal
and socially conscious body of work that explores themes such as the
relationship between the North and the South, Sámi identity, the Sámi
language, and the growth of a young artist. The album moves along the
boundary between individual and collective experience, highlighting the
realities of life within a minority culture and expressing pride in one’s roots.
