Smaal Tokk, a self-proclaimed gangsta rapper from the Slovenian Coast, who is anything but a gangsta or a rapper, is a music project that combines verbose wisdom in the dialect of the Vipava Valley with pop-rock-jazz music. He started his career back in 2009 on the online media Vest.si, which provided him with enough space for uncontrolled and unrestrained thoughts about the deaths of bees and deer in general. Shortly afterwards, the web portal was shut down, and Smaal Tokk found himself on Television Slovenia, where he helped co-create the show Transistor, which was (incidentally?) also cancelled shortly after his arrival. Since Smaal Tokk did not want to do more harm than absolutely necessary, he decided to pursue a solo music career. In 2011, he released his first megahit, "Smaal Tokk for Prezident" ... and no one else has lost his job since. In 2015, he released his first album ThatThere and embarked on his first concert tour, stringing together an almost double-digit number of concerts. In 2017, at the general request of the public – truth be told, at the encouragement of friends – followed by an album with an ironic connotation Syndrome of the Second Record, and in 2021 he spontaneously and unchallenged released a third album called The Midlife Crisis, which – much to the general surprise of the audience – actually tackled the problem of the midlife crisis.
