Swing introduces an innovative concept with his project “Au revoir Siméon.” Positioned between adolescence and adulthood, the artist delves into his identity across two epochs, from inception to conclusion. During an interview with Redbull Music, he shares: “Saying goodbye to Siméon sometimes entails leaving behind a part of childhood to regain balance and overcome life’s obstacles, while preserving the innocence that fuels my creativity and resilience.” His project, driven by the standout title “No Futur,” features collaborations with Prince Waly and YG Pablo, with Swing having recently signed the visual for this track.
