CHADI
Born Chadi Abdul Karim, he is best known as an actor, director, storyteller, and activist – but it all began with music. Back in the early 90s, under the name C.A.K., he co-founded the rap group Alzheimer Klinikken together with L.O.C. (Liam O’Connor) – a pioneering crew that kicked open the door to what we now know as Aarhus V rap.
CHADI is a Danish-Palestinian artist deeply rooted in rap, spoken word, and lyrical performance. His music is marked by raw energy, poetic intensity, and the uncompromising power of language. He moves in the space between rap and poetry – where words become rhythm, and rhythm becomes storytelling.
After many years in the world of theatre and film, he now returns to his first love: music. In recent years, CHADI has been working on a series of new tracks inspired by today’s global realities. The lyrics carry anger, frustration, and a glimmer of hope.
The soundscape is hard, uncompromising, and direct: heavy beats, bass, and drums provide the foundation for lyrics that are both vulnerable and powerful.
