One of the most striking bands of the hip-hop scene in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, Prago Union celebrate their 15th anniversary these days. Kato, the founder of the band, started with rap already a decade before the band was formed, at the time when Czechoslovakia was split up. Under the pseudonym Deph, he worked in the legendary band Chaozz. Kato is considered one of the best Czechoslovak hip-hop lyricists. As the Artattack portal says: “It is the lyrics that is the essence of Prago Union. These are testimonies wrapped in the ability to sketch the image and build a metaphor. They create a surprising point.” Prago Union was the first band to repeatedly claim the Anděl Award in the hip-hop & RʼnʼB category. Last year they released their fifth album, Smrť žije (translated as Death Lives), which was rated 9 out of 10 by hip-hop magazine BBARAK. The authors of the review wrote: “Even though they deal with the themes of birth and death, their music remain a cheerful, witty the celebration of life.” On 17 November, we do have things to celebrate. They will perform at the KC Dunaj club with a new live band composed of Tonda Dlapa (guitar), Ondra Hauser (bass guitar), and Oliver Lipenský (drums).
