French Rap / Hip Hop

French-speaking Rap and Hip Hop have developed a strong identity since the late 80s. From IAM and NTM to MC Solaar and Oxmo Puccino, pioneers laid the foundations of a style that is at once poetic, protest-driven, and deeply rooted in social reality.

Since then, subsequent generations have broadened the spectrum: Booba, Rohff, La Fouine, and Diam’s left their mark on the 2000s, while today, a new scene represented by PNL, Orelsan, SCH, and Nekfeu continues to redefine the codes.

Each vinyl record embodies a stage in this rich musical history, encompassing demands, storytelling, and sound experiments. Let's relive the evolution of a genre that gave hip hop a unique flavor, carried by the French language and its many accents.
