ERIK

ERIK is the stage name of Erik Grainca, a young Albanian singer and rapper from Kosovo. He was born on 1 May 2004 in Pristina and grew up there, which is why he is on Muzika-Balkan under Kosovo. He sings and raps in Albanian.

He started singing as a teenager, in a style between R&B and pop. In May 2017 he took part in Diamond Fest with the song "When Someone Expects". His first music videos followed from 2019: "E imja shota" in December 2019, "So Sweet" in August 2020, and "Falma", "Loneliness" and "Dashni" between November 2020 and February 2021.

Since then he has moved to rap. On his channel, where he records simply as ERIK, the songs include "Santorini" with Valo93, "A Don", "Bella Hadid", "Shko" with Ersenada, "Ilegal", "Tata", "Inati", "Ferrari", "Normale", "Habibi" with Xhero and, most recently, "Bad Gyal", "Luje" and "Prangat". Several of the later tracks are produced by Arlenn.

The playlist is his own "ERIK Music" collection, from the early rap singles to the newest videos.
