Description

After a first album, Il suffit d’y croire, released in 2018 and selling more than 200,000 copies, the one described as the new “star” of French chanson (a reference to her stage name, which means “star” in Japanese) has released a second opus. It was in the tour bus of a tour of more than 140 dates across France that this new album, titled Sommeil levant, was born. Nominated at the Victoires de la Musique as “Révélation Scène,” Hoshi writes all her songs as a singer-songwriter. But 14 tracks were not enough, and Hoshi still had a lot to say. It is through a reissue made up of 13 unreleased tracks, titled Étoile flippante, that she completes this second album. She explores more personal themes there, such as her youth (“Enfant clown”), forgiveness (“J’te pardonne”), her fears and anxieties (“Étoile flippante,” “Pas de cadeaux”), and love remains a recurring subject that she describes in all its forms (“Et même après je t’aimerai,” “Nos jeux amoureux,” “Frissons”). A reissue with colorful sounds in which Hoshi reconnects with the guitar of her early days, as in “Il était une toi,” and also sings about her desire for the stage on “Allez-là.” After Gaëtan Roussel and Corinne, it also features beautiful collaborations, sometimes with a great name in French chanson such as Benjamin Biolay (“Pleurs de fumoirs”), a more urban duet with FIVE, a young rapper with an unusual story (“J’attends mon heure”), and a feature with her Babouchka (“Mieux avant”) that evokes the contrast between generations. It is perhaps the one that resonates most in Hoshi’s heart, as her grandparents played a major role in her development as a musical artist. It is through the 27 tracks that make up Étoile flippante that we truly meet Hoshi. A poetic and sharp album, like the journey of this artist who is far from done making headlines.
