Apache 207 has been making music since 2018 – and apparently he’s doing everything right. The artist is now a real star in German-speaking countries, thanks in part to his 2019 hit single “Roller”. His first album TREPPENHAUS was number one in the German charts in 2020 – he was just as successful with it in Austria and Switzerland. So it’s understandable that fans have a lot of questions about who the musician is. Our Apache 207 wiki sheds some light on this.
What is the real name of Apache 207?
Apache 207 is actually called Volkan Yaman. He was born on October 23, 1997 in Ludwigshafen am Rhein, Palatinate. There are no details as to why he chose his stage name. However, the 207 apparently stands for the constituency number of his place of birth and hometown. In Ludwigshafen at the Theodor-Heuss-Gymnasium he also did his Abitur. He is known for his smart lyrics and his musical combination of pop and street rap.
Is Apache Really Native American?
Is Apache 207 really of indigenous descent? We cannot provide any information on this. What we do know, however, is that he has Turkish roots, as his real name suggests. It is not unlikely that his long, dark hair, a trademark of the rapper, earned him the nickname. Or he was inspired by the Parisian gang subculture “Les Apaches” or the French artist collective of the same name.
How much money does Apache have?
Many fans are now wondering: Is Apache a millionaire? Apparently, the musician actually did it – his net worth is reportedly estimated at €1.5million. Nothing has been officially confirmed, of course, and he could have made a lot more money in the meantime. With the track “Angst” he spread rumors that he had signed a ten-million deal with Sony because Universal had only offered him a seven-figure sum. In the same breath, he revealed that he had turned down an Adidas deal for half a million euros – peanuts for the rapper and for him “no reason to talk personally”.
Did Apache 207 become a father?
In “Fear,” Apache 207 2021 also hinted that he might have become a father. At least that is the interpretation of many fans who read paternity from the following lines:
I lie next to you, like every night
And kiss your eyes to sleep
Hoping you sleep soundly
And don’t ask any questions
Because there’s way too much to do out there
But my baby has nothing to do with that
Smell your silky hair again
And then dress me up
This is also supported by the fact that the rapper in the video is swinging a small bundle wrapped in blankets on his arm. If you analyze the words alone, you could also simply mean Apache 207’s girlfriend. In his song “2sad2disco” he hinted at the separation from a woman that cost him “sorrow and ten years of life”. However, the artist is very reserved about his private life – completely understandable given his great success. Apache 207 rarely shows private snapshots on Instagram.
How big is Apache 207?
Also interesting for fans: the size of Apache. At an impressive two meters tall, the artist is probably the tallest German rapper. By the way, Bonez MC and Money Boy are similarly tall.
