A Parisian group whose music blends hip-hop with rock and funk, tackling social issues head-on.
If you want to get what they're about, start with "Truc de Fou" for the energy and "Beau Mois de Mai" for a slightly different vibe. Both feel lived-in, not polished.
E.sy Kennenga matters because they don't shy away from the messy, real stuff in French life, especially for young people on the margins. Songs like "Truc de Fou" and "Décidé" carry that raw, personal charge, and their albums from "L'Escadrille" to "Mauvais Œil" show a group sticking to their guns even when it draws criticism. They're one of those acts that makes you feel the tension in the room, not just hear a beat.
They formed in Paris in the late 2000s and put out their debut "L'Escadrille" in 2009. By 2015's "Mauvais Œil," they were still mixing hip-hop with rock and funk, with tracks like "Comme Si" showing their range without losing that edge.
