Yakup, better known as Mr Berlin Party, spreads joy with just a mic and a boombox, bringing the party wherever he goes. His viral videos have led to 98k followers on Instagram and over 200k on TikTok. You might have spotted him under the World Clock at Alexanderplatz or outside the Warschauer Stra\u00dfe S-Bahn, circled by curious locals and tourists who quickly warm up to his contagious energy. He\u2019s one of those NPCs that circle Berlin on a loop. He\u2019s the wild-haired, cow-spot-covered stranger who comes onto a late-night U-Bahn, gets everyone dancing and then, just as suddenly as he appeared, he\u2019s gone. He\u2019s Berlin spontaneity personified. But Mr Berlin Party isn\u2019t just about the singing or the dancing \u2013 or even the party itself. His goal is to make people happy.<\/p>\n

Are you from Berlin?<\/p>\n

I\u2019m the son of a family that came here from Turkey in the early 1960s as guest workers. I was born in Turkey, but I spent my childhood in Germany and attended elementary school here.<\/p>\n

What do you love about Berlin?<\/p>\n

The young people! They show me so much appreciation and respect through my performances. It reminds me of my own youth.<\/p>\n

When did you begin these impromptu parties on Berlin\u2019s streets?<\/p>\n

Last February, I took my music box and went out onto the street. I started from nothing, with no prior experience. But I also know that I have talent. Even back then, friends used to say to me, \u201cYou\u2019re a star!\u201d<\/p>\n

Do you plan where you\u2019re going to set up a party? Or walk around and choose where it feels right?<\/p>\n

I grab my boombox and just see where the road takes me. I often start at Leopoldplatz because I live here in Wedding. But I can tell you one thing: wherever I am, the party starts immediately.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s your favourite club in Berlin?<\/p>\n

Berlin is my favourite club. I like everything about it \u2013 especially the people, whether they\u2019re locals or tourists. Actually, I don\u2019t really like going to clubs. It\u2019s just not my thing.<\/p>\n

Many of your parties happen under the World Clock at Alexanderplatz. What do you like about that location?<\/p>\n

Berlin is my stage, but I can\u2019t perform everywhere, otherwise I\u2019d get complaints. That\u2019s why I\u2019m often in public places like Warschauer Stra\u00dfe or Alexanderplatz. Even the vendors there are my fans.<\/p>\n

Do people recognise you on the street in your private life now? If so, how do you deal with the fame?<\/p>\n

Yes, people often recognise me, but that\u2019s nice. Quite a few times during performances, people have behaved rudely and grabbed my microphone, for example. But in my private life, my fans are always polite and not intrusive.<\/p>\n

You often get people dancing on the U-Bahn. What do you like about creating a party on a train?<\/p>\n

That kind of thing is a bit unusual, of course, but people want to see something different. You meet so many different people on the subway, from young to old, and everyone enjoys my performances there. It makes me happy when I can make people laugh \u2013 even the people who can\u2019t afford entertainment. That makes me very happy.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not just about dancing \u2013 you always sing along to the music. Did you always enjoy singing?<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been singing my whole life, and many people have told me I have a talent for it.<\/p>\n

Your song choices range from David Guetta to Boney M. What\u2019s your favourite kind of music?<\/p>\n

I can tell you one thing: wherever I am, the party starts immediately.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m very picky when it comes to choosing my songs. I have specific criteria I use to select them. For example, I pay attention to the rhythm, the sound, the mood, the melody and the lyrics. Basically, I like fast-paced music. It\u2019s also important that they\u2019re popular songs that everyone can sing along to. That\u2019s my strategy, and I hope to win everyone\u2019s hearts.<\/p>\n

You always make people smile! Is that the ultimate goal of what you do?<\/p>\n

I just want to make people happy. That\u2019s what matters most to them: having fun and being happy. I love entertaining people. Some people have even said they\u2019ve never seen such a cool concert. As long as I still have the power and energy, I\u2019ll keep throwing parties on the street. My fans give me the motivation to do it.<\/p>\n

You have over 200k followers on TikTok. Why did you decide to go on social media?<\/p>\n

I have a goal: to reach as many people as possible with my performances and my talent. Of course, it also helps me become better known. I\u2019d like to be successful at what I do. But I don\u2019t handle that myself. My social media manager takes care of it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

How did you come up with your style?<\/p>\n

I want people to recognise me on the street; that\u2019s obviously one of my strategies, too.<\/p>\n

Why the name Mr Berlin Party?<\/p>\n

That\u2019s what I do: party!<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"@mr.berlinparty<\/p>\n

Where else would you like to hold your pop-up concerts in the future? Do you have any future goals?<\/p>\n

I have a lot of plans. I want to produce my own songs, for example. One in five languages. I also want to work with other artists. Then I plan to give concerts in clubs. I\u2019ve even gotten requests for that already. I\u2019m also really interested in fashion, as you can see from my outfits, so I\u2019d like to produce my own fashion line too.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"@mr.berlinparty<\/p>\n

Everyone knows you as Mr Berlin Party. But what\u2019s your real name? And what should we know about you?<\/p>\n

My real name is Yakup. I speak five languages and I\u2019ve lived in Istanbul, Rome, California, Los Angeles, Mexico City and the Caribbean.<\/p>\n
