Hkeem, whose real name is Abdelhakim Hassane, has emerged as a distinctive voice in the Scandinavian music scene, blending elements of hip-hop, pop, and R&B to create a sound that resonates with a diverse audience. The Norwegian artist of Eritrean descent first gained widespread attention with his 2017 hit single "Fy Faen," which captured the complexities of youth culture and swiftly climbed the Norwegian charts. His talent for crafting catchy hooks and grounded, relatable lyrics has won him a loyal fanbase.

In his recent string of releases, Hkeem continues to showcase his versatility and introspective songwriting. Singles like "By til By" and "HJERTET MITT ER HELT OK" highlight his knack for melodic flows and his ability to address personal themes with authenticity. With tracks like "Danser videre i livet," in both its acoustic and remixed forms, Hkeem shows his capacity to adapt and evolve musically. His live performances, including a notable rendition of "En stjerne skinner i natt" for NRK P3, have further cemented his reputation as a compelling live artist. With each release, from the reflective "Farvel" to the vibrant "Jetter" and the contemplative "Se hvor vi er nå," Hkeem keeps expanding his repertoire and solidifying his status as a key figure in the Norwegian music landscape.
