Schizo bars intertwined with deep life lessons and poetic yet brutal expressions of love and passion make up the base of every General Two song. The heavy emotions motivating his lines justify their grotesqueness, they hit you like a train and lay bare the purity of his message, regardless of how dark and twisted it might seem. Learning to appreciate General Two’s lyrics is a path of enlightenment and cathartic rebirth.
General Two (Denis Hafizović for the government) is an MC born in Bihać, the West Side of Bosnia and Herzegovina. He started rapping in elementary school around 2002 under the pseudonym Lil Čale, performing mainly acapella.
From 2003 to 2005 he was not active, but in 2006 he starts recording rap/hiphop/club songs with his friend and producer Sinuss.
In the beginning, he called himself G-2 after the Pilot G-2 0.5mm pen he used to write his charters, which soon gets expanded to General Two.
In 2007 he releases his first mixtape, “Kralj”, featuring the summer hit song “Eto što sam vruć” which quickly piqued public interest and garnered respect from local and regional underground scenes. With around 7000 downloads, taking circumstances of living in Bosnia into account, the mixtape is considered a huge success and represents the start of a journey to the dark underbelly of Bosnian ghetto life.
