Dollar Prync is a Czech Roma rapper whose tracks have garnered millions of views on YouTube and TikTok over the past years. Laced with Roma slang, his lyrics tell many stories about the poor in Prague’s Smíchov district.

Dollar Prynce has been making music for over a decade, but only came to fame relatively recently. Sometimes referred to as Czechia’s only real gangster rapper, Prynce’s music comes across as raw and authentic, not just because it is based around real experiences, but also because of his unapologetic style.

His more recent music was created in the UK where Dollar Prynce moved in the late 2010s where he set up a rap crew together with rappers EkoO, Dynamic and Bobby. Last year, he collaborated with Slovakia’s most famous rapper Rytmus, releasing the song Zbohatni alebo Zdechni (Get rich or die), referencing the famous 2003 50 Cent album Get Rich or Die Tryin’.
