A7

Description

SCH, these three letters may not mean anything to you at the moment, yet... SCH, the rookie from the south of France, is determined to make a name for himself in the French rap scene. Lacrim didn't make a mistake by giving him a prime spot on Ripro. Kaaris didn't either, by featuring him on his latest mixtape, Double Fuck. SCH, everyone is talking about him, everyone wants him. Before a first album that he hopes to release next year, SCH drops, like an ID card during a tense check, A7, on Def Jam, a mixtape packed with sounds from Guilty, a Toulouse-based beatmaker, and Kore, along with features from Sadek and Lacrim. Recorded in Paris, in one month, ten hours a day in the booth, pouring out his guts and his prose with striking imagery. Because SCH is above all this ability to rise by shaking up reality; he talks about what makes a man, he still fantasizes, weapons, drugs, money, delinquency, sun and darkness, uncertain future and burning past, but he does it with his style, a dazzling mix of visceral poetry and moving tableaux. Raw rhymes, a flow "straight out of Hell," a rapper who highlights his originality both in his rap and in his style.
