My story begins in 1992 — under the name Cool Vedat.
Young, hungry and full of energy, I became part of the early Swiss hip-hop movement.
My first official step into the scene was the track
“Da Straccha feat. Cool Vedat” released on the iconic Fresh Stuff 4 compilation.
Over the years, my voice, style and artistic identity evolved — and Mad Boy Vedi emerged:
A rapper who doesn't play a role, but lives it. Raw, lyrical, authentic.
But growth never stops.
From Mad Boy Vedi, Mad Soul 13 was born — a deeper expression of maturity, awareness and identity.
Rap remains, but today it goes further: into soul, intention and transformation.
I'm not just a name — I'm the journey behind it.
