Yasin was Sweden’s third most streamed artist on Spotify in 2024. Only world star Taylor Swift and the Swedish rap group Hov1 were streamed more times.
Yasin has previously been sentenced to prison several times, including for serious weapons offenses and preparation for kidnapping.
“Feels extremely important”
Patrik Schultz, CEO of Alive Festival, says that Yasin has been one of the most wanted artists since the festival started in 2022.
– He has made major changes in his life and has chosen to focus on music and family. It feels extremely important to us as a festival and it’s fun that we can put such a great artist on a stage here in Dalarna, says Patrik Schultz.
