Biography
editBorn to a Greek father and a French mother,[1][2] Vlospa grew up between Nice and Kalamaria, a suburb of Thessaloniki.[3][2] Vlospa lived for almost a decade in Nice, France where he recorded his first singles. Deeply connected to the French hip-hop culture, one of the most famous worldwide, from an early age Vlospa started working on the mix of French and Greek rap in his own unique way, which made him known first in Greece.
Thanks to his bilingual lyrics it didn't take long for him to stand out from the rest of the hip hop artists with his Spotify & YouTube singles always garnering millions of listens & views within the first few days of release. This even culminated with his first personal album "Mektoub" which is the perfect crossover of street style and finesse.[3][4][2]
Sunglasses are Vlospa's trademark and he wears them at every concert and promo photo shoot, as well as in every public appearance. The “Mektoub Sunglasses””[5] released with Die Nasty became a hit with the popular artist's audience, resulting in their stock being sold out quickly.
