In 2026, Djadja & Dinaz celebrate the tenth anniversary of « On s’promet », a landmark project that marked a decisive turning point in their journey and laid the foundations of their success within French rap. Hailing from Meaux, the duo sharpened their craft long before mainstream recognition, building momentum through freestyles and gradually asserting their identity — most notably with the now cult-favorite series « Tenue de motard ».
In 2025,
Djadja & Dinaz confirmed their steady rise with the release of « Terminal 7 ». A pivotal project that firmly established them at the top, debuting with nearly 28,000 album-equivalent sales in its first week alone. A figure that reflects a career marked by consistency and momentum, pushing their total sales beyond one million albums overall. Long overlooked yet always united, the two rappers climbed the ranks without ever compromising their direction. During a recent appearance on Planète Rap, hosted by Fred, they even revealed that they had « never once thought about splitting up ».
Building on this momentum,
Djadja & Dinaz have announced a nationwide tour scheduled for 2026. To mark the launch of this new chapter, the duo unveils the single « Les bases », a true artistic statement. Staying true to their DNA, the Meaux-born artists — who had recently explored more rhythm-driven sounds — make a deliberate return to the raw rap that shaped their early years, reconnecting with their roots.
Djadja & Dinaz return to the « Basics »!
The track’s instrumental production is handled by
Stefio, a longtime collaborator who previously worked with the duo on « J’viens de là ». Known for his work with artists such as 2 Mètres, RSKO, and Gradur, the producer delivers a stripped-back, rap-driven beat that perfectly aligns with the universe of Djadja & Dinaz. Carried by a controlled sense of melancholy, the song leaves room for a sincere narrative in which the two rappers reflect on their journey — without arrogance, but with a clear sense of earned revenge.
« J’vais chercher à graille
Tu l’vois pas quand j’ai faim
C’est moi j’ai récolté les fonds
Et dix ans plus tard, j’ai reconnu les faux »« C’est que j’t’ai vu tricher dans l’jeu
Tu peux t’faire rattraper, l’ancien
À la base, j’avais pas l’cœur en pierre
Avec le temps, c’est d’pire en pire »
The visual accompanying the track is directed by 10Creation, who places the artists within a gritty neighborhood-operation storyline, perfectly echoing the song’s raw authenticity. The director has previously made his mark with standout visuals such as
« Pardon et merci » by Dosseh, « Pure » by Gradur & GLK, as well as « Alpha » by Djadja & Dinaz.
