Early Life & Education

Ahti was born on December 6, 1999, in Vaasa, Finland, and later moved to Porvoo, a town he reps with pride.

Raised by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Peltonen, he grew up in a Christian household that shaped his values, though he keeps his faith private.

His ethnicity is Finnish, and he’s deeply connected to his roots, often weaving Porvoo’s small-town vibe into his music.

No details are publicly available about his siblings, as Ahti keeps his family life private. Growing up, he was hyperactive, a trait he channels into his fast-paced rap style.

Ahti planned to study at Laajasalon kansanopisto on the sports journalism track, seeing it as a balance to his music career, but no records confirm if he pursued it.

He’s said his real education came from the rap game, competing in battle rap events like Rap SM and honing his craft in Porvoo’s streets. His relentless practice—writing over 100 song drafts in 2017 alone—shaped his sharp lyricism.

Career

Ahti’s rap journey began with battle rap, culminating in his 2018 Rap SM championship win, where his quick wit and fast flow stood out.

He released his debut album, Uppoava laiva, in 2016, a raw project that helped establish his underground credibility.

His first label-backed album, Greta (2021), released via Universal Music Finland, explored heavy themes such as climate change and bullying, earning praise for its depth.

His “Maanantai sessarit” freestyle series, with eight parts, showcased his versatility and gained a cult following.

In April 2023, Ahti released his breakthrough album, Normijäbä, which went platinum and topped the charts in Finland. Singles like “Matkustaja” (feat. Aksel Kankaanranta), “Väärään aikaan” (feat. Hugo), and “Yksinkertasta” (feat. Costi) became massive hits, with “Matkustaja” blending soulful vibes and rap to connect with fans.

His 2024 single Pää Ylhääl and second album, also released in 2024, cemented his status, with sold-out shows at Ilosaarirock and other festivals.

Ahti’s performances are electric, with fans praising his natural stage presence. His lyrics often take a stand, like supporting Black Lives Matter, reflecting rap’s roots as a voice for the marginalized. Despite a 2024 car accident, Ahti bounced back, proving his resilience.
