Publicity
The artist released his first single in 2015, but his rise did not begin until a couple of years later. At that time, he was able to record through a bigger record company.
Vikman’s name was also on Finns’ lips when her relationship with singer Danny came to light. During the four-year relationship, Vikman was able to rise to the artist’s wings.
After breaking up with Danny, Vikman released her song Cicciolina, which he performed at the New Music Competition. At that time, the artist had already found his voice and style: he dared to break out.

A woman of attitude
Vikman released his self-titled first album in August 2021. In addition to Cicciolina, the album includes the songs The table of sinners and Shame which became very popular.
With his success, myVikman also appeared in TV shows such as Masked Singer and Vain läämä.
Vikman’s forthright attitude and bold performance have made an impression on the Finnish audience. However, publicity and popularity have not only been positive, as Vikman’s outfits have, among other things, aroused anger in people.
The artist has not let the negative comments hurt. He creates his own career as a musician and tries to modify stubborn notions with his style.
