A legendary cassette, pressed on vinyl for the first time, promising “lyrics, impros, unprecedented and explosive clashes!” Set to the several rounds of verbal combat between Sheryo and Sadik Asken, the two sides see many future legends cross paths. The first voice to be heard is Diam's, and the first track brings together none other than Lunatic and Ärsenik. Suffice it to say that in terms of foundations, Sang d'Encre really stands out. The mixtape is not “set to a vibe” like DJ mixtapes can be, but truly animated, in a pure radio spirit. Thus JP Seck delicately welcomes his listeners over the beat of “Dead presidents,” which then serves as background music for Sear, Mark, Yasmina and Olivier Cachin. These various interludes, some of them amusing, provide a delicate setting at the heart of which the bloody performances of Rohff, Rim'k, Ekoué, LIM are all the more striking. The result is a mixtape that carries weight, like Driver and Dezé’s “morceau de gros porc,” an unforgettable comedic high point.
