Violin and piano-led French boom bap. Hugo TSR, previously of the TSR Crew, is a French-Asian dude from Paris' 18th arrondissement, and his music perfectly represents his environment. Flaque de Samples is profoundly urban and fatally melancholic, showing the dirty Paris, the one not present in Woody Allen's movies. His flow is angry as any young desperate man living in the capital is and is accentuated by the crisp beats. This aesthetic is very pleasing at first, but the monotony of the flow and beats gets tiresome over the course of forty minutes (especially if you've listened to his other albums), but it reinforces Hugo's discourse. In the end, Hugo TSR typically is that kind of influential indie rapper: never in the spotlight, but referenced by newcomers (Georgio developed the same aesthetic) and loved by rap newbies (also called ienclis). I prefer when he pops in one of my playlist rather than during the course of a record.
