Bu Kolthoum & Emp1re // KONZERT

HESS Concept & Schu Fi Ma Fi Collective are taking over Cologne, Germany for their very first collaboration.

Two iconic artists: EMP1RE and BU KOLTHOUM will share the stage together for the first time ever.

Bu Kolthoum is a pioneering voice in alternative Arabic hip-hop from Syria, known for blending raw lyricism with soul, funk, and traditional Arab influences. With powerful themes of exile, identity, and resistance, his performances deliver an intense and deeply emotional live experience.

EMP1RE is a rising force in Tunisian contemporary hip-hop, combining sharp flows with experimental production inspired by jazz, soul, and modern trap sounds. His genre-blending style and energetic presence have made him one of the standout voices of the new North African rap scene.
