Real Hip-Hop. No Filters. No Lies.
My name is Tino Vähäoja, but you know me as Thype. I was born in 1995 in Tampere, Finland, and I’ve always been drawn to music that speaks the truth. I don’t believe in fake stories or empty words. My rap is raw, real, and unapologetic—just like life itself.
What Makes Thype Different?
In today’s rap game, many artists play it safe, following trends instead of creating their own lane. I do the opposite. My music is built on real experiences—pain, struggle, victories, and lessons learned the hard way. I don’t rap to please everyone. I rap for those who want authentic, fearless, and powerful hip-hop.
I don’t shy away from controversial topics. My lyrics challenge, provoke, and tell stories that mainstream artists wouldn’t dare to touch. If you’ve ever felt like an outsider, if you’ve ever been underestimated, my music is for you.
The Story Behind the Name
The name Thype represents more than just music—it’s an attitude. It’s about standing tall even when life knocks you down. It’s about pushing forward, no matter what obstacles are in your way. That’s what I do with my music, and that’s what I want my listeners to feel.
Music That Speaks to You
I create rap that connects, inspires, and challenges. Whether I’m spitting about personal struggles, social issues, or the chaos of everyday life, my goal is always the same: to make you feel something real.
My influences come from underground hip-hop, aggressive rap, and lyrical storytelling, blending sharp wordplay with raw emotion. Every track I release is a reflection of my truth—no sugarcoating, no filters, just pure hip-hop.
Join the Movement
Hip-hop isn’t just music—it’s a movement. If you’re looking for rap that tells the truth, makes you think, and hits harder than just a catchy hook, listen to Thype on Spotify and follow me on Instagram. Be part of something real.
