Yzomandias, born Matej Straka, is a prominent figure in the Czech rap and hip-hop scene, known for his sharp lyrics and energetic delivery. His stage name is derived from Percy Bysshe Shelley's poem "Ozymandias," reflecting perhaps his aspirations of leaving behind an enduring legacy in the music world.

He has since become a prolific force in the genre, releasing a stream of singles and albums that captivate his audience.

His works such as "ZPÁTKY NA SVOJÍ PLANETU" and "NA ROHU" exemplify his trademark blend of introspection, social commentary, and street storytelling, setting him apart within the Czech urban music landscape. Yzomandias's discography often reflects themes of personal struggle, success, and the nuanced realities of life's highs and lows, as evidenced in tracks like "Krtek Forever" and "Láska & Bolest." With an unrelenting work ethic, he continues to push the boundaries of his sound, exploring different stylistic elements while staying true to his roots, which has garnered a dedicated following and solidified his status as one of the key voices in his genre.
