13 Organisé 2: A Legendary Posse Cut!

0

In 2020, France’s most prolific rapper, Jul, decided to bring together all of Marseille’s rap scene under one banner with *13’Organisé*. This bold project united three generations of Marseille rappers, from IAM and the Fonky Family to Psy4 de la Rime, SCH, and Kofs. The first single from this collective effort, *Bande Organisé*, quickly became the most-watched video on YouTube in 2020, even featuring an appearance by IAM. Four years later, Jul is back with *13’Organisé 2*, set to release on October 4. After the highly festive first track (*Bande Organisé 2*), he unveils another hard-hitting single, *Sous le soleil*, featuring the legends of Psy4 de la Rime and the Fonky Family.

13 Organisé 2: A Legendary Posse Cut!

The track opens with an excerpt from *Demain, c’est loin* by IAM, featuring the iconic verse from Shurik’n. The musical production is crafted by Amertume Prod, as credited on RapGenius. The Marseille-based beatmaker excels in creating timeless tracks, allowing ample space for the artists to shine with their lyrics and flows. *Sous le soleil* stands in *13’Organisé 2* just as *Je suis Marseille* did in *13’Organisé*: a unifying and emblematic anthem. This track brings together icons such as Sat, Don Choa, Le Rat Luciano, and members of Psy4 de la Rime, with Soprano delivering a memorable 16-bar verse to close the track.

The song is packed with punchlines. Notable lines include Soprano‘s: *”In this game, I’m the vaccine, not for the Rolex but for my brothers who’ve been set free”*, and Sat‘s: *”Who do you think are the children the city devours?”*. The rappers paint a portrait of a city they no longer recognize, addressing the decline in living conditions while staying true to the spirit of the Fonky Family: *”We don’t pretend to be teachers, so we don’t give lessons”* (*Sans rémission* – FF).

The video, directed by Zak a la vista and brought to life by Kespey, is a true visual masterpiece. The camera glides through the streets of Marseille, alternating between close-ups of the artists and shots that capture the soul of the city, an infinite backdrop for the stories of Marseille’s rap scene: *”With our rough lives, we could create endless stories, and nothing changes except the faces of the fools on the bills”* (*L’amour du risque* – FF). Historical references to Marseille’s rap legacy are everywhere. Kespey also directed the collaboration between Negrito and L2B on *Fiché*, as well as the track by Bouss, *Je suis indé*, and *La même histoire* by Djadja and Dinaz.
