HIVER AUTOMNE

Description

WINTER AUTUMN - the new album by Souffrance: everything for rap"Rap is dead, I came to carve up the carcass". Never satisfied, Souffrance always wants more and returns once again more ambitious. "WINTER AUTUMN is dark and danceable trap" to quote the words of the great Chilly Gonzales, one of the essential composers of this new album alongside Tony Toxik. Souffrance depicts chaos and his piano accompanies us throughout the crossing of a ruined zone, between Sin City and Blade Runner. Raw and striking lyrics, the MC from Montreuil plunges us into a world on the border between reality and dystopia where resignation meets determination ("We won't leave our children in the best of worlds" / "I'm the kind of poor person who thinks he can become a billionaire"). WINTER AUTUMN is rap at its highest level. Faithful to its essence, the rigor of writing and rhyme has remained intact but Souffrance seems freer than ever. He appropriates trap productions as dark as they are grandiose, like on the eponymous WINTER AUTUMN, delivers raw choruses of stunning effectiveness like on "Les Moyens" and allows himself every risk, like the hypnotic "Tango". WINTER AUTUMN is also a message to all of French rap and the best way to set the record straight. Souffrance gives a real lesson in kicking alongside Jewel Usain on "A plus tard", calls on ISHA to put pressure on the competition on "Meilleur", or invites the legendary Soprano for a demonstration of technique on "Compte double". WINTER AUTUMN is a straight line, the story of a guy who charges ahead without looking back because behind him there is nothing left to see.
