Disiz has established himself since his early days as an artist deeply committed to concepts and stylistic experimentation. Several years ago, he made a lasting impression with an iconic trilogy made up of “Lucide”, “Extralucide”, and “Translucide”, three projects firmly rooted in a demanding rap aesthetic. With “Pacifique”, the rapper then embraced a bold pop shift, which he would later abandon in favor of a rawer approach with “Disizilla”. A trajectory worlds apart from his beginnings with Nouvelle Donne, where he scored his first major hit with a rap reinterpretation of the film “Falling Down” starring Michael Douglas, through the track “Je pète les plombs”.
Over the years, Disiz has refined his writing and expanded his artistic universe by incorporating increasingly layered psychological storytelling. The project “L’amour” perfectly illustrates this approach, exploring with precision the different stages and facets of a romantic relationship. The artist injects a deeply personal dimension into his work, blending lived experience with narrative construction. This method is nothing new: as early as 2015, he released “Rap Machine”, posing with his children on the cover, already blurring the line between private life and artistic expression. By 2022, with “L’amour”, Disiz fully established storytelling as the backbone of his creative identity.
In September 2025, he made a notable return with “Ton ventre”, a track that is both intimate and symbolic, dedicated to his mother as much as to his partner. Between an openly acknowledged Oedipal dimension and an exploration of emotional bonds, Disiz delivers an atmospheric piece enhanced by a highly symbolic visual. In the same vein, the project “On s’en rappellera pas” develops a hazy, introspective aesthetic. Set to reach gold status, much like “L’amour”, it features collaborations with Theodora, Laurent Voulzy, and Kid Cudi. This artistic direction fully comes to life in the visual for “Try Try Try”, where both artists float above the Philharmonie in a dreamlike, aerial setting.
Disiz and Kid Cudi take to the skies with “Try Try Try”!
The track’s instrumental is produced by LucasV. A multi-instrumentalist beatmaker in his thirties, he stands as a regular collaborator of Disiz, having notably crafted tracks such as “Rencontre”, “Sublime”, and “Casino”. He also works with Luthier. The production, subtly infused with 80s-inspired textures—more in its sound palette than its rhythm—unfolds a hazy, atmospheric backdrop that leaves room for vocal expression.
On this track, Kid Cudi and Disiz lean more into singing than rapping, creating a suspended, introspective mood. Disiz reflects on his journey with striking honesty, far removed from any sense of bravado:
“J’recroise ce gars, j’lui dis : “J’te raconte pas
C’qui s’est passé, c’est vraiment dark, toute une histoire”
Accroche-toi si t’es pas d’taille, si t’es largué, mets-toi dans l’time”
Kid Cudi, true to his introspective style, delivers in a similar tone:
“Had so much darkness inside my life, felt so low
The nights alone at home, I prayed up high
Catch me in a zone, got, got my own shit”
The visual, shot at the Philharmonie, stands out through its elegant black-and-white aesthetic and deeply dreamlike atmosphere. The video is directed by Thibaut de Longeville. If the name doesn’t ring a bell, chances are you’ve been away from the European scene in recent years. He is notably behind the acclaimed documentary about DJ Mehdi, broadcast on Arte, which received unanimous praise from both critics and industry professionals. A project that reflects its subject: positioned at the crossroads of rap and the French Touch, carried by one of Paris’ most influential musical figures.
