Niska

Originally from Villeneuve-Saint-Georges, where he was born on April 6, 1994, Niska, whose real name is Georges Stanislas Dinga-Pinto, grew up in Évry and took his first steps in rap in 2014 when he released the track "Guévaraché". But it was "Freestyle PSG" that put him on the map, with nearly 100 million views accumulated online. The following year, it was the track "Danse du charo", renamed "Matuidi charo", that attracted attention. This was followed by his first mixtape, Charo Life, which included "Ochoa" and "Gros bonnets". The rapper often uses words or expressions of Congolese origin in his lyrics, particularly Lingala, and distinguishes himself by his gestures inherited from American rap. In 2016, Niska released his first proper solo album, Zifukoro, which boasted a substantial guest list: Booba, Kalash, Madrane, Skaodi, Maître Gims, SCH, Sidiki Diabaté and Gradur lend their support to the young rapper. Commando, his successor, released in 2017, went platinum in its first week. Two years later, he released Mr. Sal, which brought together a number of French rappers, including Booba, Heuss l'Enfoiré and Ninho. This was followed by a mixtape, Le Monde Est Méchant, featuring ten collaborations, including Ninho on " N.I " (No. 2 in the French charts) and Guy2Bezbar on " De bon matin " (No. 21).
