Imiskoumbria


Imiskoumbria, also known as Imiz, is a comedy hip hop group from Athens, Greece. The group's roster has been the same since its inception in 1996. Imiz members include rapper Dimitris Mentzelos, Mithridatis and DJ Pritanis. They are widely credited for the establishment of hip-hop within Greek music show business.

Name

Ημισκούμπρια has been translated as semi-mackerels. Σκουμπρί is the Greek word for the fish mackerel and is sometimes used in slang for elusive persons. The first element ημι- is analogous to the formal prefix "semi-". Hence the name refers to half-elusive guys. The combination of these two elements is used mainly for comedic effect rather than being meaningful.
