Artists Predictions 2025
Knak
Trap ● Uruguay
The Uruguayan rapper honed his skills in freestyle battles in his hometown of Melo, then moved to the nation’s capital, Montevideo, in 2020, where he fell in with a local rap crew throwing rowdy basement shows. The MC has rocked much bigger stages in recent years, opening arena shows for Argentine trap stars YSY A and Duki, and playing Uruguay’s massive Cosquín Rock festival last year. His 2019 single “Oka” remains a Shazam fixture throughout South America, while recent hits like 2024’s shimmering “+ DE ESO” reached No. 13 on the Shazam charts in his home country.
