Hef

Hef, born Henk van der Heijden, is a Dutch rapper and key figure in Rotterdam’s hip-hop scene. Known for his gritty, streetwise lyrics and laid-back flow, he’s become a household name in the Netherlands, blending raw storytelling with humor and regional pride. Rising to prominence in the early 2010s as part of the Zuidelijke Trap collective, Hef’s music often reflects his Rotterdam roots, tackling themes like loyalty, street life, and everyday struggles with a relatable, no-nonsense vibe. His recent tracks like *Frikandel* and *Hefvermogen 2* showcase his signature blend of punchy beats and clever wordplay, while collaborations with fellow Dutch artists like Adje and Kevin reinforce his status as a linchpin of the scene. Whether he’s dropping introspective tracks like *Bad Days* or anthems like *Maantje Aan*, Hef keeps it authentically Dutch, unapologetically local, and endlessly quotable.
