Apache 207

Apache 207 grew up in the Gartenstadt district of Ludwigshafen. His civil name is Volkan Yaman. After graduating from high school in 2017, the rapper, according to his management, will have spent two semesters studying law at the University of Mainz. 

On the hiphop/rap map, "Deutschraps Miroslav Klose" first appeared in 2018 with his track "Kleine H*re", which Yaman released without label support. In this track Apache plays with elements of pop, RnB and rap and garnished the whole thing with a pinch of dancehall and the mix works out for the Ludwigshafen-born artist, who already reaches several hundred thousand listeners with his first track. 

In the coming months the busy Yaman dropped five more songs and all tracks work. Even without pushing labels behind him, Apache 207's songs are getting six-digit click numbers. After all the new currency in the rap biz. In addition to listeners, more and more artists and labels are also becoming aware of the budding rap star: Bausa is one of the most attentive and brings Apache 207 2019 to his newly founded label together with Sony subsidiary Four Music. Alongside newcomer reezy, Apache 207 is the first and initially only signing of the new record label.  

And as if all this wasn't enough, Apache 207 also establishes a new genre with his songs. At least, he shapes labels that the buzzword crazy hype community can work off: with his song "Kein Problem" (No Problem), released in 2019, Yamann creates a combination of neo-hits and pop and rap elements. The result is more than 8 million clicks within a few months on YouTube. With his release "Roller", Yaman also managed the leap from the online niche into the German charts. The German single charts climbed to number 2 in August 2019 and a week later even climbed to the top of the charts, and in the Austrian single charts it also climbed to number 6. 

Earned real world props and full concert halls were given to Yaman in autumn 2019 during the tour of Bausa, who accompanied Apache 207 as support act. Apache 207 continues at the same speed: At the end of July 2020 the long awaited debut album was finally released.
