NES

He’s young, but already raising his skills above the fray. NeS embodies the next generation of French rap, one that embraces modernity while remaining conscious of its past and demanding standards. His five EPs released in three years have won him respect, and seen him collaborate with his most talented compatriots, such as Luther and Yvnnis. NeS is solidity and emotion in intravenous form, a rapper who knows the importance of the stage, where the great talents of his genre are revealed. He makes it a point of honour to electrify his audience, so it’s a date well worth keeping.
