Orelsan‘s partner in Casseurs Flowters appears to be making a notable comeback with the double single “Du plomb / Effet de Surplomb”. This rapper, a master of lyricism, brilliantly addresses the hyper-violence that marks our era. Rather than directly commenting on current events, he chooses to highlight the significant injustices shaping today’s world through his poignant verses.
Gringe Shines in “Du plomb” and “Effet de Surplomb”!
The soundtrack for these tracks benefits from the talent of Tigri on the first title, while Tigri, Saan, and Racy J collaborate on the second. Renowned for his expertise, Tigri has previously worked on hit songs like “Tortank” by RK, “De bon matin” by Niska, and “Match” by Mister V. The rhythms are engaging, with Gringe passionately delivering his texts. The second track features a melancholic violin accompaniment, enhancing the intimacy of the lyrics.
In “Du plomb”, Gringe addresses police violence and other social injustices with powerful words: “Throwing a stone in the pond or a window is all that remains when dialogue is broken”. “Effet de Surplomb” reveals poignant introspection with lyrics like: “I belong nowhere”.
This title is truly a piece of poetry. Behind the camera, Frédéric de Pontcharra blends dream and reality, thus enriching the visual universe of the track, similar to what he did with “6G” by Booba.
