Bazbaz has carved out a unique place for himself in today’s rap scene. His story took a decisive turn when he made waves with a standout freestyle on Générations radio. From that moment, things moved fast: his “AGACCU” freestyles captured the attention of listeners hungry for authenticity, cementing his artistic identity. Dark, moody, yet always wrapped in hypnotic atmospheres, his style stands apart from the rest. This identity solidified with the release of his debut EP “Synopsis”, featuring heavyweight collaborations with Alkpote, Mister You, and Remy — three artists with radically different worlds, united by the same raw intensity.
On July 18, Bazbaz unveiled his first full-length project, “Génome” — an ambitious body of work bringing together Osirus Jack, Bianca Costa, Savage Toddy, The S, XV, Sifax, Benjamin Epps, Kalash Criminel, Tony Moxberg, UK French, and Doc OVG. The album skillfully alternates between dark tracks, true to his DNA, and more accessible cuts — a calculated risk, particularly through his collaboration with Bianca Costa. That’s the very track he chose to bring to life with a visual.
Bazbaz and Bianca Costa talk about “Real Life”!
The production on “Real Life” bears the unmistakable touch of Mohand, a key figure in French rap production. His credits include Rohff’s “King”, Lacrim’s “Persona non grata”, and more recently Bouss’ “La Course”, as well as “Genocide” with Bazbaz and Kalash Criminel. As for Bianca Costa, she’s known for helping popularize baile funk in France. On this track, she injects a sunny energy over an upbeat, infectious production — making it one of the most accessible and crowd-friendly songs in Bazbaz’s catalogue.
The two artists stay true to their respective styles: Bianca Costa adds a bright, radiant touch that contrasts sharply with Bazbaz’s often shadowy universe, enriching the track’s dynamic.
In the video, directed by Moctar, the pair vibe through a series of colorful, sun-soaked settings. Known for delivering dark, intense visuals for Bazbaz, Moctar opts here for a brighter, more luminous approach. This collaboration with Bianca Costa shines as a genuine ray of sunlight in the heart of Mordor.
