When he started out, he opened for Orelsan and Columbine, but today it’s his name that’s in big letters, headlining the venues where you can see him on stage. Aged just 26, Zed Yun Pavarotti seems to be up to the challenge. He contemplates his past, his chaotic childhood, growing up in a working-class Saint-Etienne neighbourhood like French singer-songwriter Bernard Lavilliers, with a certain melancholy. Uncategorizable and unpredictable, this rapper exposes his atypical taste (for example French chanson, rock and pop) in his songs, in the same way as he uses his tattoos to bare his wounds (he even has one on his face, like Post Malone). Discovered through his first couple of mixtapes, Grand Zéro (2018) and French Cash (2019), he moved to the next level three years ago when he released his debut album, Beauseigne. Last April, he revealed his fourth body of work titled Encore.
