Background notes
Archive material and source history
Joey Starr was born Didier Morville in Saint-Denis, a Parisian suburb. In 1989, he formed the rap duo NTM with Kool Shen. Their 1991 debut album 'Authentik' became an instant classic in French rap, establishing them as pioneers with Starr's confrontational lyrics addressing social issues.
Starr's solo work includes songs like '93 Déboule' and 'J'ai fait un rêve'. His raw, aggressive style carried over from NTM's early material, though he also explored more introspective territory on tracks like 'A quoi bon sert?' and 'Afrique Tolérance'.
In 1997, Starr was convicted of assault and served prison time. He continued releasing music after this, both with NTM and as a solo artist, maintaining his defiant stance through his lyrics.
