Trafik!

"Trafik!" is a song by Finnish rapper Käärijä and Dutch musician Joost Klein. The song was released on 12 July 2024 by Warner Music Finland.

Background and composition
"Trafik!" was written by Käärijä and Joost Klein alongside Aleksi Nurmi, Johannes "Kiro" Naukkarinen, and Teun de Kruif. The latter three also produced the song. The song is described as a summer anthem about being stuck in a traffic jam. It is further described as a song which creates an energetic interplay between the two artists, seeming to be a competition "to add the most random sounds until a full-fledged song is created". According to Käärijä, they wrote the song when Klein and his team had a trip to Finland to meet the former after Klein sent a message on Instagram to collaborate.

Release
The song was released on all music streaming services on 12 July 2024, with the music video uploaded on Klein's YouTube channel the following day. The music video was directed by Lyon Pol and produced by Whale, while Ezra Xenos was the executive producer.
