What is/was the “Despacito” of your country?

It's not exactly a one song, but artist Taco Hemingway. He is a relatable rapper who started his career on storyline LP about three people wandering about Warsaw, one breaking hearts of other. Somehow this mix led to bustling career amongst young people. Kurwa, everybody under 25 knows Taco. No matter if you hate it because its trendy or you seriously dont like it, or if you love his interesting works, or if you just nod your head to biggest hit about coming back from holiday on polish sea. Every young adult will just know him. His bloated popularity is insane.

Personally I very like his first works, the secret is probably that they feel relatable and quite "intellectual" at the same time and have unique production. He also helped in breaking the stigma of polish rap being mediocre genre. Now he still makes decent music but look like hes kinda settled and... done.

Dude now manages to fill entire stadiums with people. Remember we are talking only about those who can understand the song, so they are all polish, no people who boost up ticket sales from outside.
