CAMPESINO

La Boule Noire & CLEARWATERS

It is no coincidence that his projects bear the vibrant names ‘LA GRAINE’, “CIGALE” and ‘LE BOURGEON’. If rap is a product of one’s environment, then for Campesino, his songs are literally the FRUIT of his environment, making this budding young lyricist one of the genre’s finest examples.

A child of the 2000s, as a teenager he was influenced as much by lyricists like Akhenaton as by Atlanta Trap featuring Future. ‘I come from the sticks but I’m in the game / I was on lean just to be like Future / I’d give a kidney just to write like Jay-Z / Or to make another ‘Codeine Crazy’.’

With the Provençal countryside as a backdrop, Campesino immerses us in intimate and heartfelt music: he shares his reflections on his life and the world around him with a spontaneous and instinctive style, managing to blend wisdom and irreverence in a single line, as on ‘Kurt’: “I want to be the boss / But I’ve had enough of the bosses who created my world like this” or “I send my heart to people / Even those I don’t know / Aliens must exist / They’d even have to want to smoke us / We need a common enemy / That way we can all love one another”

Born to a father who was a fruit grower (“Les champs de papa”) and a mother who was a schoolteacher, it was his mother’s passion for words that drew the young man from the Drôme region to rap.

In his lyrics, Campesino captures both the intimate and societal dimensions of every individual, moving brilliantly from the micro to the macro (“Félix”), driven by a personal perspective, flashes of brilliance, a keen insight and a great talent for description.
