An immersive and refined production
The instrumental production of “La Pluie” is crafted by Max & Seny, a duo of beatmakers who have previously collaborated with Tiakola on “Reste Là” and Keblack on “Boucan”. They also worked on “Trop Parler”, once again with Tiakola, and have recently been credited for productions with L2B and KLN.
The track is built on a minimalist rhythm, enhanced by an echoing bell sample with crystalline tones, creating an ethereal and introspective ambiance. Lyrically, Franglish and Dinos skillfully navigate between punchlines and raw emotion, delivering a performance where melancholy intertwines with resilience:
“J’m’en rappelle, j’avais tellement mal, mais je n’voulais pas le montrer
J’attendais la pluie pour laisser les larmes couler
L’amitié devient un prix parce que j’voulais plus payer, j’ai pris sur moi
Ils voulaient pas de moi, par la fenêtre j’suis rentré
J’suis dans la maison, ouais j’donnerais l’heure désormais”
A visually striking and metaphor-laden video
The music video, both bold and visually compelling, was filmed in an industrial setting. Director Nathanaël Day masterfully plays with symbolism and contrasts, delivering an elegant and immersive visual experience that amplifies the emotional weight of the track. A production that enhances the song’s meaning and reinforces the poetic intensity of this collaboration.
