The rap duo JVG, founded by Jare and VilleGalle in 2009, is rightly dubbed Finland’s most popular group: they hold numerous Spotify records, have won thirteen Emma Awards, and sold out the Olympic Stadium. JVG‘s songs “Tarkenee” and “Hehkuu” were the first Finnish-language tracks in history to surpass 10 million streams.
The group has sold over 300,000 albums throughout their career, consistently performed at sold-out arenas, and broken numerous Spotify records. The single “Ikuinen vappu,” released in February 2019, is one of the most listened-to Finnish-language songs of all time.
The upcoming release teased by the single “Rallikansa,” which was released in April 2024, immediately shot to the top of Finland’s Spotify chart and was the official number one on Finland’s chart for a week. The single was preceded by the hugely successful “Vuodet ollu tuulisii” tour, which culminated in double concerts at Helsinki Ice Hall in spring 2024.
JVG was last seen at Ratina in 2022, and their highly anticipated return to the Blockfest stage will take place on Friday, August 16!
