Shirtless Gettomasa was surprised on stage – This is how the comeback gig went

One of the top names in Suomiräp Ghetto mass i.e. Aleksi Lehikoinen, 32, made a return to the concert stages today in his hometown Jyväskylä at the Hippos baseball stadium.

The gates of the event opened at six o’clock on Saturday evening. Before the gig, it rained all afternoon, but shortly before the artist took the stage at half past nine, the rain stopped.

– I’m back, announced the rap artist in the video of the side screens of the stage.

The artist opened with energy and a smile with his January release, which was the first in a long time after a break. Authenticity is not for sale got the crowd singing.

Gettomasa shouted to the audience and at the latest “I can’t see hands in the air” lyric made the whole audience raise their hands.

The artist asked if the audience had a fun day and the audience responded with a shout each time.

– Have you missed Gettomasa?

The question also received an affirmative answer.

Irresistible-after the hit, Gettomasa told on stage how something important was forgotten when there was a break from the stage.

– Small things when you haven’t been to a gig in eight years. There is no water bottle here on stage. This kind of thing hurts, he laughed.

The artist also spoiled the audience with an older production, for example From Vellamo LP. Shortly after his wish, water bottles were brought to the stage.

Gettomasa especially shouted at the audience of his hometown by asking if there were Jyväskylä residents there. The artist brought out how happy he is to be in Jyväskylä.

– Is there any feeling that you are proud of Jyväskylä? Gettomasa asked the audience.

The artist told how several times in Helsinki he hears people from other places belittling his home region.

– You have to be proud of Jyväskylä, he reminded.

– I am a proud Jyväskylä resident. Thank you for being here!

Gettomasa admitted that returning to the stage has also come with some challenges.

– Listening to my own songs after two years was a bit heavy, because there was so much lived life in them. I wouldn’t have wanted to go back, but now I’m here to throw them at you.

More acknowledgments were received when Gettomasa said that he hated his concert set the most We are not – song. After the performance, the artist revealed that his favorite part of his production is Flannel-paragraph.

– If I ever jumped in my car and was like “now I’m listening to Gettomasa”, I would listen to this song, Gettomasa thought aloud before performing the song.

Then the rain returned to the baseball stadium to drench the fans. However, the soaked fans were warmed by a surprising moment when Gettomasa took off his shirt. Then he performed his Hyvä mä song and asked the audience to sing the chorus at the top of his lungs. After the performance, Gettomasa brought up his undressing himself.

– I know, I look really good, the rapper said and made the audience roar.

– It’s been ten years since I last looked like this. Shoutout to anyone who has suffered from a bulging disc. Huhhuh, I went through the sick mill. Here I am now.

The audience shouted for the condition of Gettomasa.

– In really good shape, someone could be heard commenting from the audience.

Later the mayor of Jyväskylä Timo Koivisto arrived on stage to hand Gettomasa the key to the city. In January, Gettomasa had jokingly asked for the key to the city at his press conference held at Jyväskylä City Hall.

Getttomasa had an immediate reaction to the honor he received.

– Oh, that’s what they did to me! Jyväskylä, we have the key to the city!

After that, Gettomasa’s song started playing Go crazywhich has become an unofficial Jyväskylä summer anthem. The artist performed the song with the key to the city in his hand.

– Did I understand correctly that Gettomasa is the first person to have the key to the city of Jyväskylä? Gettomasa mused aloud after the performance.

The audience flocked to the artist to cheer him on. Gettomasa regretted that he didn’t have pockets big enough in his pants for the key.

After receiving the key, Gettomasa also performed a song Muijii Stadis. Finally, Gettomasa rapped the song The eyes.

– In Jyväskylä, I love you all. Good evening! Gettomasa thanked and ended his gig.

“Ghetto massa is back”

In January, Gettomasa announced his return at a press conference held at Jyväskylä City Hall.

– I am now back from my break or vacation, he said in front of media representatives.

– Gettomasa is back, the artist declared.

At the same time, the artist revealed that serious health problems plagued the quiet life of almost a couple of years. Gettomasa suffered from back problems and, among other things, a bulging disc.

The artist said that it was challenging for him to stand at the concerts in the summer of 2024 and he performed “biting his teeth. However, health problems made the artist realize that a complete stop was a must and the only solution.

– I certainly wouldn’t have realized to take a break if my health hadn’t gotten to the point where I have to take it. In retrospect, the whole thing felt more like a blessing, because I feel that during my break I realized I needed this, he told Iltalehte.

Gettomasa said during the break that he understood how health is more valuable than success.

– I definitely understood that my own health must come before success. That there is no amount of money or no amount of hype, status or list positions that can supersede health. That is the most important thought I have received.

In January, the artist described his current condition as good.

– Health is really good. I feel better than I have in many, many years. I’m healthy as a goat. The break made a difference, he smiles.
