Arkimed Lushaj (born 15 June 1986), known by the stage name Stresi, is an Albanian singer and rapper, considered as one of the famous music figure in new modern industry, also as the founder of BadBoys4Life.[1]
Stresi was born on 15 June 1986 in Tirana.[2] When he was a child, his family moved to Belgium. During his childhood years there, he sang and performed in shows that were organized for Albanians in the diaspora.[3] He lived there for several years until 2007 when he returned to Albania. He also lived in Italy for several years.[4] As a troubled child who tried to run away from home, he was given the name "Stresi," which means "stress" in Albanian, by his mother.[5] Stresi graduated in psychology, although he has never practiced the profession.[6]
Stresi started his career as a rapper in 2007 when he was 20 years old.[7] In 2012, Stresi was the musical ally of the Babastars label, but the alliance was destroyed in 2020 when Ghetto Geasy and Mike dissed Stresi with the song "Hajde Te Baba". Stresi responded to the diss with the song "Po Foli i Fundit".[8] Stresi is also the founder of the music label "BadBoys4Life". The members of the "BadBoys4Life" label also include singers and bands from Albania and Kosovo, such as One T, Anestezion, Pakufijt, Enes Qosa and Flor Bana.[9]
