The Opposites are a Dutch hip-hop duo from Amsterdam, made up of Willy (Willem de Bruin) and Big2 (Twan van Steenhoven). Signed to TopNotch, they became one of the most influential acts in Dutch-language rap with hits such as 'Slapeloze Nachten', 'Sukkel Voor De Liefde' and 'Broodje Bakpao'. After a thirteen-year hiatus they returned in 2026 with new music and a string of sold-out shows.
The Opposites announce two indoor concerts at the Gashouder Amsterdam on October 31 and November 1, 2026, following a sold-out outdoor show in the Zuiderpark in The Hague where approximately 20,000 fans were present.
'Feestje Op Mijn Graf' is released via Atlantic Records Benelux as the first new Opposites single in thirteen years.
The duo announces the 'Opposeason': a period in which more new music is expected to be released.
The Opposites announce their return to the stage with a live show in the Zuiderpark in The Hague on July 10, 2026.
