Biography

Sofiya, Bulgaria (1996 – present)

Bulgarian group Upsurt is considered one of the best acts on the hip-hop scene in Bulgaria. Definitely the most popular, the group was formed in 1996 and originally consisted of four guys: Itzo Hazarta, Bate Ventsi, Butch, and Panchev, who left the group three years ago, all friends from school No.76 in Sofia. They’ve made numerous recordings, topped music charts, toured throughout Bulgaria and have been enjoying recent success and high acclaim for their latest single, 3 v 1.

In the tradition of true hip-hop, Upsurt speaks for the “common man” living the simple life, criticises politicians and popular artists, mocks the status quo and points out what the real, unspoken problems are in Bulgarian society. They write, arrange, and record their songs, and when they have enough compiled, they release a new album, the normal path for most musicians.


Their newest single that can be heard pumping in most cars and flavouring up many cafes and nightclubs is 3 v 1, meaning 3 in 1, and came with the sponsorship a large coffee company that makes a popular, powdered instant coffee drink called 3 in 1. The band is highly commercialised right now, which is a turn-off for some, but this is because they’re such a marketable group of guys: young, talented, down-to-earth, and bluntly articulate in their views of Bulgarian life. The beats drop nicely, the lyrics flow naturally, and the production and arrangement of the songs have an original flair.

    Велики са Ъпсурт, едно време всички ги плюеха, че били идиоти и страшно вулгарни, обърквали правописа на децата и т.н, а сега всеки си спомня с умиление за времето, когато имаше и друга музика освен чалгията и циганията.

    Една от малкото български хип-хоп групи, които ме карат да се усмихвам. :)

    "you guys need to release another damn album!" Така си е! А който ги харесва, трябва да си ги купува, не само да тегли и да се кефи... Момчетата са готини и го заслужават (;
