Yoko, a promising young rapper from Sarcelles, keeps making waves with a powerful new release: “Comme d’habitude”. Recently signed to the Morning Glory label, he’s been dropping tracks at an impressive pace: “Sativa” 1 & 2, “Métal Froid” (recorded in DJ Bellek’s studio), and “Jamel”, a gripping piece built like a true street narrative.
Despite his youth, Yoko displays remarkable artistic maturity. With sharp lyrical skills and a strong flair for storytelling, “Comme d’habitude” adds to his catalog with a reflective vibe, echoing an urban take on Frank Sinatra’s legendary “My Way”.
Yoko does it “Comme d’habitude”!
The producer, although uncredited in the YouTube description, can be recognized by a signature tag also heard on “Game Over” by Testri. The production is minimalist yet effective, with a slow build-up and an eerie, haunting sample.
On this track, Yoko lays bare the raw reality of life in the hood. His razor-sharp writing reflects clarity and experience, highlighted by lines like:
“Tu racontes ce que t’as volé, moi je veux entendre ce que t’as rendu.”
“Je sors d’un quartier un peu spécial, ça peut goumer parce qu’un tel a volé un câble.”
Yoko dives into themes of street hustle, arrests, and everyday struggles—without sugarcoating or preaching.
The video, directed by Le Clown, captures this duality through gritty, documentary-style scenes of street life, contrasted with classic shots of Yoko rapping to the camera. Already behind visuals like “Jamel” and “Sativa 2”, the director once again proves his keen eye for raw, street-driven storytelling.
