Head for a new day at the 33rd edition of the Chorus festival. If the discoveries are less numerous concerning us, it is a day marked by a scene mainly rap and RnB with a multitude of artists that we look forward to! In terms of discoveries, Sabrina Bellaouel and her RnB pop mix pleased us. It is especially his stage presence, his charisma and his pretty voice that we remember. The one who collaborated with Jazzy Bazz was able to charm the Chorus hall, despite the uncompromising reputation of the Parisian public. Still concerning the discoveries, we had the opportunity to meet The Doug, rapper from Clermont-Ferrand, with whom we discussed at the turn of an interview that you can find here. At the turn of his songs, The Doug opens up about his complex relationship with his mother, his city, and even tries a remix of "The bad reputation" of Brassens that touches the public who lets themselves be carried away in his delusions. We listen carefully and we have only one desire, it is the release of his EP in May. As soon as we arrive at the forecourt, the Afro-Caribbean sounds already reach our ears. Accompanied by his two musicians.nnes., David Walters warmed the hearts of the Chorus by bringing the sun straight out of his album, Soleil Kréyol. Thanks to terribly effective songs and a contagious good mood, David Walters manages to get us into his dance to the point of losing the thread of time, especially when the latter announces that there are two minutes left of the show. In short, it sings, it swings, it laughs, it lives.  LUD5982 scaled [Report] Hip hop, turn-up and love at the Chorus festival 2022 Change of atmosphere with the concert of Romane who, in the depths of the small stage, makes us the pleasure to invite us into his universe. Subdued atmosphere, you quickly feel comfortable alongside the singer and her soul voice both imposing and warm, a voice that takes you and takes you to the countries that have made her musical culture. There's a bit of Nina Simone in her voice, a nonchalant side to Amy Winehouse, a little bit of Kimberose too. We can't recommend his music enough, Romane has that extra something and it won't be long before the rest of the world notices.  LUD6158 scaled [Report] Hip hop, turn-up and love at the Chorus festival 2022 7:15 pm: the room is plunged into darkness. The musicians settle in their seats, the first notes of "Heavyweight" sound, and by a single spotlight, Disiz is revealed to the big stage. Despite a somewhat timid attendance at the beginning of the show, and surely the fact of playing a new album where the public is not necessarily receptive to the artistic approaches of the rapper, Disiz still managed to put the crowd in his pocket thanks to a sublime colorful scenography, but especially thanks to his latest acclaimed album, Love, and other hyper effective hits like "Splash". Between his lyrics on the beauty of life, on the simplest things and his particular prods, it is sure that Disiz is more of an intimate artist, so discovering him on stage remains something rather surprising. And it is in this same unifying dynamic that Disiz concludes his show with his single "Rencontre" (without Damso, too bad) where we sang and danced with enthusiasm one last time before leaving. LUD6165 scaled [Report] Hip hop, turn-up and love at the Chorus festival 2022 Ludivine Pelissier , Instagram : @ludpellissier_musicphoto LUD6305 scaled [Report] Hip hop, turn-up and love at the Chorus festival 2022 © On the occasion of the presentation of his joint project with Tony Allen, Tomorrow Comes The Harvest, Jeff Mills honors us with his presence. Alongside keyboardist Jean-Phi Dary, but also artists Divinity Roxx and Rasheeda Ali, Jeff Mills takes us on a journey between Detroit and Lagos with a hybrid music between electro, jazz and afrobeat. LUD6562 scaled [Report] Hip hop, turn-up and love at the Chorus festival 2022 Ludivine Pelissier , Instagram : @ludpellissier_musicphoto LUD6576 scaled [Report] Hip hop, turn-up and love at the Chorus festival 2022 © It would be a lie to say that we weren't looking forward to seeing the sublime Joanna at the festival. So we went to the depths of the small stage to see the artist accompanied by his two musicians to play his latest album Serotonin, in addition to some titles of his first project Venus, and this for our greatest pleasure we admit. If Joanna managed to make us sway on her flagship titles such as "On your body", "Maladie d'amour" or "Alerte rouge", make us blush on "Séduction" and "Pétasse", she also managed to bring tears to our eyes with "Maman" by her moving voice, her power of interpretation and her touching authenticity. In short, give love to Joanna aka the future of French pop.  LUD6659 scaled [Report] Hip hop, turn-up and love at the Chorus festival 2022 This is one of the great concerts of the evening that we have been looking forward to. A concert that we are not the only ones to expect given the huge crowd present in the great hall. For an hour, Caballero and Jeanjass impress us and play with ease on stage. Taking up new and old hits like the famous "Dégueulasse", the audience happily raps in chorus all the songs played and is receptive to the humor of the Belgian duo. It gives us an absolutely fiery concert and becomes one of the most memorable concerts of the festival. We find ourselves singing the choruses of all the songs, even those we did not know before. Proof that Belgians do it differently.   Among the multitude of artists present at the festival, IAM, the legendary group of Marseille rap, honored us with its presence. The opportunity for the group to revive their classic album, L'école du micro d'argent, a way to reaffirm themselves as one of the pillars of French rap whose lyrics still resonate today in the hearts of their audience.
