Berlin's decadent club atmosphere is brought to life at Roskilde Festival when Ikkimel invites you to party with his hard-hitting and humorous mix of fast beats, hyper-pop references and rowdy lyrics.
The young rapper from Berlin has a background as a linguistics student. And when she takes to the stage as Ikkimel, you'll get a thorough lesson in some of the German language's most juicy vocabulary in a style she herself has dubbed "Fotzenstyle" (cunt style).
Her debut album, released in early 2025 in the wake of a string of strong singles and EPs, is entitled Fotze, and sets the stage for a sharp and humorous lyricism that cultivates a hedonistic and body-positive universe, while the songs poke fun at macho clichés and sexism.
The hedonistic and playful lyrics are perfectly matched by a musical universe that combines rap, hyperpop and club-orientated tones with roots in house and trance. With pounding beats and trance-sounding synths, she creates a sweaty party atmosphere that is impossible to stand still to. And although the lyrics are in German, Ikkimel is well on her way to making a mark on international stages with her unique style. There's no doubt that a hot dance party awaits when she takes over Roskilde Festival this summer with hits like "Baddie", "Unisexklo" and "Böser Junge".
