NISKA

Friday 21 July

Niska is one of the iconic figures of French rap, specifically from the 91st district, the bustling southern suburbs - "L'Essonne Geless" as Sinik said - alongside artists like PNL, Ninho, Wejdene, Zola, and Bramsito. It all started with his music videos on YouTube and then the famous mixtape "Charo Life" (remember the PSG anthem "Matuidi Charo"?). However, he truly exploded onto the scene seven years ago with his debut album "Zifukoro" (featuring collaborations with Booba, Gims, SCH, Gradur, Kalash, and more). He followed up with successful albums like "Commando" (2017), "Mr Sal" (2019), and "Le monde est méchant" (with a v2 in 2022). He says, "Evry is beautiful at night," and he's certainly right, but performing at the Hippodrome de ParisLongchamp at night, facing the Main Stage, after a Bercy concert last year, is not bad either!
