Ridsa

In the world of French rap and R&B in the 2010s, Ridsa stands out for the romantic tone of his music. Initially known via video-sharing sites, where he attracted an often female audience, Ridsa made his mark with his first single "Je n'ai pas eu le temps" (#76 in 2013). In early 2014, "Nous et seulement nous" and "Oh Mama" flirted with the top hundred French sales. Her debut album Mes Histoires reaches the top fifty (No. 44). The follow-up, L.O.V.E., delivered a few months later in March 2015, features collaborations with Dieselle, Marvin and DJ Kayz (in return, Ridsa sings on Paris Oran New York) and reaches No. 16. The Orléans rapper scored his biggest hit the same year with the track "Là c'est die", at#5 in sales, heralding his third album Tranquille. Tranquille, at no. 21, also performed well, achieving gold certification. Its successor, Libre , arrives in April 2017 after a few months' postponement. It gives Ridsa its best ranking ever, entering the French Top 10 (n°6). With Vagabond, released in 2019, he reached #20 in France, further consolidating his position on the French rap scene. In 2023, he presents his fifth opus, Équateur, featuring 17 tracks, including a duet with Sergio Alejandro. The album quickly climbed the French charts, reaching number 18.
