The Finnish rapper IBE was born Ilmari Kärki in Helsinki in 1999. Since graduating from the Helsinki Collegiate School in late 2018, Kärki has enjoyed a meteoric rise in the world of Finnish hip-hop which began when he was featured on Benjamin Peltonen's single 'Scratches' which reached number three in the Finnish charts. The artist cites the German rapper RIN and the US hip hop star Lil Uzi Vert as being important influences in his music. In 2019 Kärki was nominated for an Emma Gala of the Year ward after his album 'Ibelius' reached number two in the Finnish charts. As well as his collaboration with Benjamin Peltonen, Kärki has worked with other Finnish hip-hop stars such as JVG and Cledos.
