Just stumbled on this. I like the contrast between the laid-back beats and the rapid-fire wordplay, as well as the relentless positivity of the lyrics. Good stuff.
"“I put money down on all of us
On my people now, on what I love”"
I have watched this video I don’t know how many times ✊
Ces derniers temps, j'essaie de m'intéresser de nouveau et m'acoutumer au rap marseillais mais j'ai du mal à trouver du son et des mots à la hauteur de Kenny Arkana.

Des recos ?

also, here's #Mamdani rapping under the name "Young Cardamom," with Ugandan #rapper #HAB, in #QueenOfKatwe, about a chess prodigy from #Uganda, directed by his mother #MiraNair and starring #LupitaNyongo, #DavidOyelowo, and #MadinaNalwanga
Zohran #Mamdani's support of #TransRights is well known
Here's a bizarre anecdote on that topic:
You may know that Zohran's mother is the director #MiraNair. Mira was offered the chance to direct " #HarryPotter and the Order of the Phoenix"
She turned it down because Zohran said no
A *14 year old* Zohran Mamdani kept his mother away from #JKRowling
(I'm not implying he knew of Rowling's #bigotry in 2006, I just find this trivia extraordinary)

Brigitte Macron et son entourage ont tenté de torpiller la participation d'Aya Nakamura à la cérémonie d'ouverture des JO de Paris, révèle le livre "L'Empire", une enquête sur le rap français. Des proches de l'épouse du président trouvaient la chanteuse trop clivante. Au point de lancer dans les médias la rumeur qu'elle chanterait du Piaf pour enflammer l'extrême-droite.

Avec @RAPasso on vous invite à notre après-midi de rencontre pour faire bugger la pub ! Nous y animerons un atelier artivisme, moment de créativité pour imaginer comment lutter contre l'envahissement de la publicité et notamment des panneaux numériques dans l'espace public. Nous proposerons aussi un atelier pour apprendre à contribuer à une cartographie géante et partagée des panneaux publicitaires.
Ca commence à 14h le 25/10 au Garage, 115 rue de Ménilmontant à Paris.

📻Old school hip hop in Odesa 🇺🇦
My taxi driver 🚕, Volodymyr, had 2Pac’s "Only Fear of Death" 🎶 playing softly. On his console sat the Odesa flag. I recognized it instantly, and he looked surprised.
➡️ I told him it matters to me—to learn, to honor, to understand the culture and history of where I serve.
Moments like this remind me of the universal language of music and that hip hop has no boundaries.🌎

You know what I'd like to see more of? People playing off each other's #poetry, making riffs, replying, battling. There's a little of that on here with stuff like prompts, but it would be excellent to see more poets interacting with each other. Coming from a tradition where it was a common social and entertainment activity for people to exchange and ad-lib poems, sometimes with deadly consequences, the way modern poetry is considered solely an intense solitary pursuit feels a little strange at times. #Rap has preserved more social aspects of poetry and the rest of poetry could use some of that, too.
