Apache 207

Apache 207 brings his melodic rap—positioned between pop, R&B and trap—to Berlin. On 15 September 2026 he will perform at the Uber Arena. Born in 1997 in Ludwigshafen as Volkan Yaman, he anchored himself in German-language rap from 2018 onward through online releases. Signing with TwoSides (Bausa’s label) marked the next step: on the EP Platte (2019) slow trap grooves, hints of funk and ’80s synths appeared, elements that have since shaped his sound. With Treppenhaus (2020) and Gartenstadt (2021) his spectrum opened further toward pop-rap, without shedding the edge of street rap or the sing-rap style with its large choruses.

Live, Apache 207 relies on distinctive hooks, sung passages and a nocturnal atmosphere. His lyrics revolve around relationships, money, social mobility and the tensions between outward success and inner vulnerability. On stage, this translates into a set of synth-heavy beats, measured tempos and moments that leave space for voice and melody. Shaped by collaborations within the German rap scene and a staging that blends rap codes with contemporary pop aesthetics, the evening focuses on the tension between groove and restraint—condensed in Berlin into a compact live set.
