What artists will perform at the Boterhammen festival this year?
Het Zesde Metaal is a famous Flemish band with hit songs like Ploegsteert Naar De Wuppe and Tid Van Ton. Willem Ardui will mix soul, hip-hop and jazz on Tuesday. Meau Hewitt will perform, blending Dutch indie pop with synths, dreamy choruses and heartfelt lyrics. The first thing we need to make clear is that the four artists will be presenting on Wednesday. Borokov. Borokov is the first performer. The second one is Babs. She also plays herself a part mixed race. As a mixed-race woman Babs is trying to explore her mixed identity and at the same time hopes that young female and non-binary producers will be inspired in what is still very much a man’s world. After Babs will be Mariposa performing Dutch-language Latin pop inspired by Pastor Lopez, Rodolfo Aicardi, Cardi B and Isaiah Rashad.On Thursday Deadbeat Larry comes on stage at 12. In turn you give way to the lively hip-hop of SEF whose lyrics are witty and he retains a refreshing attitude always followed by Elmer who burst onto the scene in 2021 with her hip-hop song Je Vader that is full of frankness drawn from comic books.
