Canadian rapper Akintoye is making waves with “Lederhosen,” and he’s proving that his talent knows no bounds. From his massive TikTok following to his groundbreaking documentary “Mind Check 1-2,1-2” which premiered at Hot Docs and is centred around his engagement with mental health is a reflection on his own struggles with anxiety and depression.

Despite his larger-than-life persona and impressive achievements, Akintoye remains refreshingly down-to-earth. In a recent interview, he opened up about his introverted nature and the importance of staying true to himself, both in his music and his personal life.⁠

Born in Lagos and raised in Ontario, Akintoye’s musical journey began at a young age, inspired by the sounds of West Coast hip hop and the guidance of his father. From performing on stage at school concerts to crafting his own verses, he found his passion for music early on and hasn’t looked back since.⁠

With “Lederhosen,” he continues to push boundaries and redefine what it means to be a true artist in the modern age. His unique blend of high-energy rap and raw honesty has earned him millions of fans worldwide, with his music resonating deeply with listeners who appreciate his authenticity.⁠
