Noizy

Noizy, born Rigels Rajku on September 27, 1986, in Sukth, Albania, is a powerhouse in the Albanian music scene, celebrated for his commanding presence in hip-hop and rap. His journey from a small town in Albania to international fame is a testament to his resilience and ambition. In 1997, his family moved to London to escape political unrest, settling in Woolwich, where he immersed himself in street culture, developing a passion for boxing and underground fighting. These early experiences shaped both his tough persona and lyrical grit.

Noizy officially launched his music career in 2006 upon returning to Albania, making a strong impression with his performance of “Jemi OTR” at Top Fest. His debut album Pak më ndryshe followed in 2009, laying the groundwork for a prolific career. Over the years, he’s carved out a distinct style that merges Albanian hip-hop with global sounds, collaborating with international artists like RAF Camora, Snik, and Dhurata Dora. Tracks like “Toto” have earned gold certifications and expanded his audience across Europe. With albums like Epoka (2020), Alpha (2023), and Icon (2024), Noizy continues to dominate charts and redefine Balkan rap.

Offstage, Noizy is a savvy entrepreneur. In 2015, he launched his streetwear brand, Illyrian Bloodline, which reflects his cultural pride and bold aesthetic. Known for his unapologetic lyrics and influential lifestyle, Noizy remains a symbol of success and authenticity in Albanian music—an artist who turned struggle into stardom.
