Memli Krasniqi is expected to take over the leadership of the Democratic Party of Kosovo. PDK, one of the most important parties in Kosovo politics, holds the Convention today, while the new chairman is expected to be elected.
Krasniqi, who was considered a “strong weapon” in the PDK is the only candidate in the race who intends to take over the leadership of this party. In recent years he is known for his contribution to politics, yet he has once been very far from the field.
Before entering politics he was known in music. For many years he was active in the music industry and worked on various music projects, mainly as a singer and member of the hip-hop group “Street Rhythm”.
Krasniqi was once one of the most famous rappers. “Forever”, “Street Soldier”, are two of his songs which make a fuss in post-war Kosovo.
