Kristian Humaidan (known as UFO) won the freestyle championship MC's Fight Night in 2002. Soon he started collaborating as a duo with Jeppe Bruun Wahlstrøm (known as Yepha, born 1983)[1] through Svendborg, and later from Aarhus. They were also known as Whyyou (taking lead from first letters of their names). Their first chart success together was "Hver dag" as duo UFO & Yepha.[2] The singles topped the Danish Singles Chart staying seven weeks at #1.[3] Their album Ingen som os in 2006 brought further success to the hip hop duo.
The group has previously appeared on MC Clemens' second album, Den anden verden as a collective Kælderposen (alias Kældersquad) which included UFO Yepha, Rune Buoy, Jot, LX, Jesper Drejer, Ole R and DJ Rescue. Owning their own studios, they also produced other artists, including Ali Kazim's album Gadedrøm in addition to their own materials. The duo moved to Copenhagen in 2008. UFO & Yepha split-up in 2011.
UFO's debut album as a solo artist is Humaidan. It was released by Universal Music Denmark on October 24, 2011.
