Among the couples of Beijing Express 2026 – broadcast from 12 March on Sky Uno and streaming on NOW – there is one who will bring a small piece of the Italian rap scene to reality: we are talking about Dani Faiv and Tony 2Milli, competing under the name of “I Rapper”.
Who is Dani Faiv
Dani Faiv is one of the most recognizable artists of the new Italian urban generation, known for an eccentric style, an unconventional energy and a charisma that is difficult to ignore. The personal side is almost never missing from his lyrics: for years he has been engaged to Luana, with whom he had a son, Nicolò, in 2022. Family, values and true emotions coexist with the ironic verve that has made him a reference name in the scene.

Who is Tony 2Milli
Tony 2Milli is 25 years old, comes from Milan and has made his way in the underground circuits since 2018 with a raw, direct and unconventional style. In 2020 he founded the collective “Patto Slitherich”, which quickly became a point of reference for independent Italian trap. A rapper but also a producer, he’s the type of artist who builds his credibility away from the mainstream spotlight — until now.

Friends before colleagues
The two are great friends in life and recently collaborated on the song “Slithertdc”. At Beijing Express they present themselves with clear ideas about what keeps them united: «Rap is union and sharing and we are just that, united wherever we are. We are the poets of today, each stage is a beat.”
