De Kraaien (The Crows) are a masked hip-hop act from The Hague, active since 2009, who rap in the local Haags dialect over hard-hitting beats. Their 2012 single 'Ik Vind Je Lekker' earned them a gold record and broke them nationally; frontman Bernd Gansebev has kept the group going through various line-up changes. They have built a loyal underground following across the Netherlands and Belgium through relentless live shows.
De Kraaien released the single 'Fakking Hard' in January 2026, a collaboration with Tony Star and Mojo Fyre.
In December 2025, the single 'De Beste Wensen' was released, also the official anthem of Vreugdevuur Scheveningen.
De Kraaien released the album '11:11' in 2025, produced by Niels Zuiderhoek, featuring guest contributions from Emmaly Brown and Mastah Mic, among others.
De Kraaien performed at the Eurosonic Noorderslag (ESNS) festival in Groningen in January 2025.
De Kraaien released the EP 'RAVEN' with collaborations with Charly Lownoise, Andor van Reeven, Emmaly Brown, EZG and Mojo Fyre.
