Explicit. More explicit. Krankšvester. Šveki returns to Čakovec for another night of hits, chaos and lyrics you probably shouldn’t play at a family lunch.
The big return to Čakovec! This highly inappropriate duo is coming to town on Saturday, 23 January 2027, ready to deliver another show you’ll definitely be talking about with your friends. Maybe not with your grandparents or godparents, though. No need to make them wonder where they went wrong and all that.
Šveki is back, bringing the hits, sweat, chaos and lyrics we definitely wouldn’t recommend playing at a family lunch.
Sociologically speaking, there are people who love hits such as “Retardirana”, “Slava” and “Gaber”. Others prefer classics like “Svekar”, “Disco Rak” or “Majko zovi dilera”.
And let’s not forget their latest patriotic hit, “Volim nju”, which apparently even left Zaprešić Boys impressed. At least that’s what people have been whispering behind the scenes.
Whichever group you belong to, on 23 January there’s only one place you need to be.
Krankšvester’s music carries traces of the dance stars we used to watch on VIVA and MTV back in the ’90s. Shout-out to Marusha, DJ Bobo and, of course, Scooter.
It all ended up in Švester’s signature mix of rap, electronic music and happy hardcore, which is why their shows very quickly stop looking like concerts and start looking more like a collective exercise in making bad decisions.
Exactly as they should.
📅 Date: 23 January 2027
📍 Venue: META bar, Čakovec
🎫 Presale: €16

Krankšvester are returning to Čakovec, it’s a Saturday, and the next day you won’t have to explain to your colleagues why you look the way you do anyway.
Some say Šveki is truth. Some say Šveki is love.
Realistically, Švester is more than that.
Explicit. More explicit. Krankšvester.
On Saturday, 23 January, Šveki takes over Čakovec. Get your tickets in time and we’ll see you at META bar!
You’ll be talking about the show with your friends afterwards.
You don’t necessarily have to tell your grandparents everything.
Krankšvester, also known as Švester, Šveca or Šveki, was founded in 2010 in Osijek, Croatia. The duo consists of 3ki and Sett, recognized from the start for their provocative, humorous and unique style. Their music has pushed the boundaries of the regional rap and hip-hop scene.
The band’s style can be baroquely elaborate and explicit, but also minimalistic and direct. This is most evident in their album titles: Krankšvester I, II, III, BONUS (Švester is the Truth), IV and V. While the titles are simple, the content is diverse and always sparks reactions from listeners.
Their lyrics cover a wide range of topics – from social commentary to absurd and shocking verses. Still, if you are around parents, grandparents or children, you will probably put on headphones. The contrast between humor and provocation is what gives Švester their unmistakable identity.
Their backing tracks reveal strong inspiration from 90s dance stars once seen on VIVA and MTV – from Marusha and DJ Bobo to Scooter. Their sound can best be described in two words: happy hardcore. This fusion of retro aesthetics and modern rap production sets them apart.
The audience is divided. Some prefer hits like “Retardirana”, “Slava” or “Gaber”, while others enjoy classics such as “Svekar”, “Disco Rak” or “Majko zovi dilera.” This variety has allowed them to reach a wide spectrum of listeners.
Krankšvester even won the prestigious Porin Award for Best Hip-Hop Album, officially confirming their relevance on the Croatian music scene.
For some fans, “Šveki is love.” For others, “Šveki is the truth.” The reality is that Švester is much more – a phenomenon blending shock, humor and honesty in a way unique to regional hip-hop.
