Tommy Cash

Tommy Cash, born Tomas Tammemets on November 18, 1991, in Tallinn, Estonia, is an artist known for pushing boundaries across music, fashion, and performance art. With a multicultural background that blends Estonian, Ukrainian, Russian, and Kazakh influences, Cash’s upbringing in the Kopli district of Tallinn has deeply shaped his artistic vision.

He first gained attention in 2012, when he began sharing his tracks on SoundCloud, quickly establishing a unique blend of hip-hop, experimental sounds, and Eastern European cultural elements. Over the years, Cash has collaborated with major artists like Charli XCX and Diplo, solidifying his position on the international stage.

In February 2025, he represented Estonia in the Eurovision Song Contest with his provocative track “Espresso Macchiato,” a blend of Estonian and Italian languages set to an electroswing beat. The song sparked debate, particularly in Italy, where it triggered discussions on cultural appropriation and representation.

Aside from his music, Tommy Cash is known for his bold fashion sense, collaborating with high-profile brands such as Adidas and Maison Margiela. His openness about his artistic goals and unorthodox approach has made him a compelling figure in contemporary culture, consistently challenging the norm and creating a distinctive space for himself in the world of modern art and entertainment.
