Orelsan

Since the birth of his career, Orelsan has seen his work and image compared to American rapper Eminem over and over again. Like Eminem, Orelsan’s French rap lyrics can flip between the absurd to the extreme with seemingly no effort at all. And, like his American counterpart, Orelsan is also no stranger to controversy, after facing a slew of political and legal backlash surrounding his song “Sale Pute,” which the rapper no longer performs.

While some fans of the rapper may have initially been drawn by the press coverage surrounding his controversial lyrics, Orelsan was always destined for success in his native France. His lyrics are fresh and intricate. Hear him perform live and you know that it is no small feat to perfect his flow. On stage, Orelsan feels each and every word he spits down the microphone. A big, fancy on-stage set up is not required for an Orelsan show; his lyrics, his mic and, of course, him are the only things needed to capture a crowd’s attention. Orelsan’s sets are always tight, but the track he always 100% nails live is “Social Suicide.” After hearing him perform it live last year it became my personal favourite, and I think if you go to one of his shows it will become your favourite track too.

AWESOME ! Beaucoup de chance car cette date était filmée et il y a eu pas mal de guests ! Certains râleront en disant que Stromae ou Nekfeu n'étaient pas là, mais après tout, c'est bien pour Orelsan qu'on y est tous allés !
Une énergie de dingue, grosse connexion entre le public et Orelsan, on sort de là avec le smile ! Merci M. Orelsan

Une mise en scène bien pensée, une orchestration qui élève le concert, un orelsan qui reprends les bases de perdu d avance en passant par le chant des sirènes ! Une belle évolution qui ne tombe pas dans le fadasse du politiquement correct !! Une belle évolution... Basique, simple...
