| The group Gipsy.cz has been voted by TV viewers to represent the Czech Republic at the 54th Eurovision Song Contest, to be held in Moscow, Russia, on May 16th. The band, featuring accordionist Petr Surmaj, is known for its rap music in the Romani language, and is very popular in the Czech Republic, and is now also gaining popularity throughout Europe. The leader of the band Radosla ‘Gipsy’ Banga, born in Prague, has developed a unique style of Romano hip-hop, combining Roma rhythms and language with the music played by Balkan brass bands. |
