On January 31, the artist will unveil his ambitious project “L’enfant sacré de Bellevue”. This title follows in the footsteps of the impactful punchlines heard during his recent freestyle, “L’enfant sacré du freestyle”, performed alongside Le Boug Arknow and DJ Flexta. To mark the anticipation of this new chapter, the artist who rose to fame with the project “Vous n’êtes pas contents ? Triplé” has recently released the track “375”, accompanied by a remarkable video featuring the participation of the renowned Fifou.
Benjamin Epps rises to new heights with “375”!
The production of “375” is crafted by the talented beatmaker Mozarf, who previously collaborated with Benjamin Epps on the hard-hitting track “Reste dans ta merde”. Mozarf is also behind tracks such as “Andale” for Sirine Ventura and “Tension” for Tibab. This old-school track perfectly reflects the style that Benjamin Epps has passionately championed since the beginning of his career: authentic rap deeply rooted in mastery of words and rhyme. Few artists, like Benjamin Epps, maintain such a strong passion for the French language, solidifying his reputation as one of the last true lyricists.
The sharp punchlines flow seamlessly over a rhythmic composition elevated by a high-pitched piano sample:
“At home, people profit with words; they’d sell people for a euro.”
“5 kids with 5 different dads—it’s not strange, it’s just different.”
“People don’t care about your speeches; what matters most is what you’ll do for them in the end.”
A refined video from a renowned team
The video accompanying “375” stands out for its exceptional quality, thanks to the work of a talented team including Mocabe Nation, Benjamin Epps, Fifou, NNY Média, and OHD TV. Fifou, known for his contributions to the first installment of SCH and his iconic visuals for artists like Youssoupha, has elevated the visual aesthetic of this project. The cinematography in the video is simply stunning.
The video was likely filmed in Gabon, the homeland of Benjamin Epps, who hails from Libreville. This choice underscores the authenticity and deep connection the artist has to his roots.
